Will SFM never see an unban literally because swords are too strong when tutored?

This is some bullshit. White cant have anything but sideboard material.

>Creatures
4 Mausoleum Wanderer
4 Judge's Familiar
2 Phantasmal Bear
3 Thalia, Guardian of Thraben
4 Leonin Arbiter
3 Selfless Spirit
2 Rattlechains
4 Spell Queller
3 Aven Mindcensor
1 Restoration Angel
>Noncreatures
4 Path to Exile
4 Smuggler's Copter
>Land (22)
4 Hallowed Fountain
3 Adarkar Wastes
4 Seachrome Coast
2 Plains
2 Island
2 Moorland Haunt
4 Ghost Quarter
1 Cavern of Souls

I did some testing with this pile of shite at my LGS earlier and it actually held up fairly well despite being a rough deck.

>Living End
If you can get down anything disruptive to mana early on, they struggle. They also have no real answer to Spell Queller. Went like 3-2. Might have named Bear on Cavern one time.
>Grixis Shadow
Pretty tough matchup if they can get anything big down fast. Would probably come down to sideboards honestly. Went like 2-3 though.
>Counters Company
Pretty bad matchup just because they rely on their creatures quite a bit. Went like 2-3 I think.
>Bushwacker Blitz
I cannot touch this deck. Daaaamn. 0-3.
>RG Scapeshift
Tough matchup, though multiple Arbiters and some disruptive dudes really help you out. I won a game by GQ'ing a Mountain in response to Scapeshift which fucked up his land count. 2-3 I think.

The Leonin Arbiters really underperformed. Mindcensor felt too slow to be impactful. And before you ask, Phantasmal Bear is there because I really want to curve out smoothly, and he's the most aggressive thing there is. Could've used Dryad Militant, but wanted style points.

You are now realizing that Vizier is white.

Your waifu is never getting unbanned. Get over it.

So is anafenza. But do-nothing cards unless you're comboing off aren't strong. Vizier does LITERALLY nothing unless you get your combo pieces down.

...and? What are you expecting, mono-white midrange?

I want DnT to be an actual deck and not one that just folds to itself.

That's all.

Eldrazi & Taxes is a thing.

Modern is not Legacy.

Not sure what to go for next. Death and taxes? Dredge? Abzan coco? UWx control? Something that's more decision-heavy than Eldrazi Tron.

did not get a response last thread
how good are manifest decks?
