Deck Primer / Description

This is a go-wide, lifegain-supported aggro deck centered around Rune-Tail’s powerful protection. Although mono-white isn’t as fast as mono-red, Rune-Tail enables consistent aggression by preventing all battle damage. This allows you to attack repeatedly without risking your board. The deck’s tokens, vigilance creatures, and lifelink synergies provide both offensive pressure and defensive stability—not to mention the three creatures that can provide a near-perfect emergency defensive bulwark. The deck has multiple win conditions: a mass pump finish with Moonshaker Cavalry, the classic Aetherflux Reservoir, and an alternate win path through Angel of Destiny.
