    yah

    see Jakko, of at least what he mentioned I didn't see anything that screamed 5 color deck

    I think it is more difficult to create a 5 color deck and if he has not been too successful with mono or two color decks that is the place to start

    yah, I only use the sentinels in fast two color decks

    isn't crusade better than devine sacrement??

      Crusade is way gross for white weenie decks.

        Amazing card this one. A good 1-drop combined with an ability that can save your ass whenever you have important stuff on the table.
        For that price, it is an excellent addition to white weenie decks.

        One of the most ineffective lifegain spells I've seen, especially since it works for the opponent as well.
        Could be useful to play against discard decks, esp with weenie decks.

        Again good for Domain, assuming you have multicoloured creatures that can take proper advantage of this card.
        This seems to be screaming for combo. Very good against direct damage if you get some damage redirector such as Jade Monolith and some multicoloured creatures. Hard to set up, but should also be good against other sorts of attacks too.

        Should be a sideboard card, since you don't want to play it against multicolour creature decks.

        Pure sideboard stuff against things like LD or Braids.
        What are those?

        Good mass removal against beatdown, but only if you have the cards to take advantage of the discard.
        Particularly good for weenie decks against meanie deacks.

        Fulfills two functions, both extermely badly.
        A little iffy to put in a weenie deck, but if there are no other flyers this might have to make do.

          Is Winter Orb available? These are cool to add to weenie decks.

              I would only play people who use classic and close to classic, none of the fancy crap they pull nowadays. I remember the good old sea serpent...

                  - excellent for most any white deck

                  Could be useful to play against discard decks, esp with weenie decks.

                  - there are better cards, life gain sucks

                  What are those?

                  - torment cards I beleive

                  Particularly good for weenie decks against meanie deacks.

                  - yes, it is ok in that case

                  A little iffy to put in a weenie deck, but if there are no other flyers this might have to make do.

                  -ack, there has to be something better

                    That means any white 1/1 creatures I bring out with W is now worth 2/2. Not to mention that the benefits are cumulative (imagine what 4 Crusades do ), and works well with a number of other cards such as Castle.

                    Oh, yes, Balance is the white card to have.

                    "- yes, it is ok in that case "

                    Much better than plowsharing them.

                      yes so crusades are very good, that does not make them gross (or are you using some other meaning of the word gross (I think you are))

                      yep, every white deck needs one ballance (and the new ballance)

                      well yah, but I dislike discarding cards (I want to play them) and white is not great at card drawing (green and blue are though)

                      (actually I beleive that neither ballance nor swords are in the basic set anymore )

                        What I meant by "gross" is you get a lot of power at a low cost. Maybe Castle is not that gross. Just a matter of opinion.

                        You can play a lot of cards at one shot playing weenie decks.

                          I see, we were using different difintiions

                          I am not a big fan of castle, too defensive

                          yes card drawing is important in weeny decks (cause you are playing all your cards)

                            Castle is defensive, but can be a very good sideboard card.

                            I am so sad to see White Knights go. They used to form the cornerstone for my white wennie deck.

                              reason why I always play casual (OK, I haven't played for long and don't own any cards, but I am only interested in playing casual)

                              I like all the fun old cards my freind has

                                Some old cards are great. Ancestral Recall for starters

                                It is amazing that they are up to the 7th edition now when my newest block is Ice Age and Homelands.

                                Man I feel like an old fart
