Deck overview

This is a Mono-White aristocrats and flying-combat list helmed by Rinoa, Angel Wing. The plan is to flood the board with cheap creatures, sacrifice them for cards and mana, and bounce them straight back through a stacked recursion suite. Rinoa is a three-mana value engine rather than a win condition: she pumps attacking flyers and, once per turn, returns an attacking creature that died with a flying counter, feeding both her anthem and payoffs like Sephara, Sky's Blade. Primary wins are combat - go-wide attacks amplified by True Conviction, Moonshaker Cavalry, and Akroma's Will. A secondary pair of loops lives entirely in the 99: Reveillark plus Karmic Guide with an Altar generates infinite deaths, and recurring Yosei, the Morning Star locks opponents out of untap steps. Rinoa is synergistic, not load-bearing; the recursion engines, finishers, and sacrifice outlets all function if she never hits the battlefield.
