Deck overview

This mono-white deck converts high-toughness defenders into aggressive combat threats using Ghalta the Immovable. Cheap walls such as Shield Sphere and Giant Ox provide immense cost reduction, allowing Ghalta to enter the battlefield as early as Turn 3 or 4. Once Ghalta is in play, defenders ignore their attack restrictions and assign combat damage equal to their toughness rather than their power. This creates massive single-target swings alongside asymmetric board wipes like Slaughter the Strong and The Battle of Bywater, which clear opposing high-power boards while leaving your resilient defensive units intact. The list complements its ground wall army with heavy Vehicles like Thunderhawk Gunship and Reaver Titan, which can be readily crewed by toughness via Giant Ox. However, the deck relies heavily on its commander to enable combat, features minimal stack interaction, and requires multiple combat turns to eliminate all three opponents.
