Deck overview

This mono-white deck commands an aggressive lifegain and Angel tribal midrange strategy led by Liliana the Faultless. The deck curves low-cost Soul Sisters like Soul Warden, Soul's Attendant, and Guide of Souls into impactful mid-curve engines like Righteous Valkyrie, Giada, Font of Hope, and Resplendent Angel. By reliably gaining life each turn, it triggers scaling pump effects such as Archangel of Thune and Nykthos Paragon to build an overwhelming aerial army. Card flow is sustained through synergy-driven draw engines like The Gaffer, Haliya, Guided by Light, and Trouble in Pairs. Defensively, the deck excels with format-ceiling protection spells, utilizing free spells like Flawless Maneuver and Flare of Fortitude alongside phase-out effects like Clever Concealment to ignore opposing board wipes. It finishes games by overwhelming opponents with massive flying combat damage backed by Moonshaker Cavalry or Akroma's Will.
