My First White/Blue Aggro (Does anyone even post decks here?)
Doubt it will get me to mythic but it is making mono black and mono red scoop. If today is like yesterday I'll hit Diamond.

Where I saw it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cBe9XnaaV_A&t=11s

I modified it some. Running the 20 lands as suggested wasn't working. Enduring Innocence wasn't in the original but I think they work a lot better than the Silent Hallcreepers. Thinking about swapping the last 2 FoF for Ossification.

4 Optimistic Scavenger (DSK) 21
4 Gremlin Tamer (DSK) 215
2 Entity Tracker (DSK) 53
4 Ethereal Armor (RTR) 9
4 Shardmage's Rescue (DSK) 29
4 Sheltered by Ghosts (DSK) 30
2 Feather of Flight (BLB) 13
4 Inquisitive Glimmer (DSK) 217
4 Grand Entryway // Elegant Rotunda (DSK) 15
4 Enduring Innocence (DSK) 6
2 Ossification (ONE) 2612

12Plains (KTK) 250
6 Island (KTK) 252
4 Floodfarm Verge (DSK) 259

if you want to do aggro more, maybe try adding a couple fear of impostors and taking out a couple shardmages rescue or sheltered by ghosts. I only even run 2 sheltered in my blue/white deck, they're just not very useful if you don't have a creature to put them on and put a big bullseye on the creature if you do

also the hallcreepers are really good... you might have made a miss taking them out :S

like I just won a game with 2 hallcreepers while they were still ramping stuff... idk what they were doing... but I won before they got there.

You should add a couple containment priests, shuts down non-casted creatures card

After 80 matches total in Bo1 Ranked it's running a 65% win-rate (70% on play 60% on draw) 52-28
Still hanging out in Platinum (need 9 more wins to Diamond) but 10-6 against mono black so that's refreshing. Only 30 matches of the 80 did not have some black in their decks.

It's a fun deck to play for sure. (I did squeeze in 2 Hallcreepers just now so we'll see how they do)

SoG works best if you can back them up with a Shardmage. I'm 3-2 against other Bl/W that seem very close to the deck in the video.
I've tweaked it a little more but in a couple days who know what I'll be playing in ranked. I foresee a mono green elf deck in my unranked play future.

ah.

you're onto a 3 card combo then, tho... and people are starting to catch on to the fact that they can just use removal on sheltered directly :P
