B/W Control (Standard)

Shadows over Innistrad standard start... I believe that black and white have the best removal come rotation. If the format is slow I feel this is a great place to start but I am also very cautious of new formats because most people tend to go toward aggro decks. Can lose a lot of life between Cave of Koilos, Anguished Unmaking, Read the Bones and Ob Nixilis. Because of this I have started with Linvala, the Preserver and Hidden Dragon Slayer. I will be updating this deck as more and more cards are spoiled but this is a look at what B/W controls decks will mostly look like.

Updated 3/28: I want to try for a midrange/control game. I have 25 lands now and will be playing games to see it that is right or if I should move to 26. Archangel of Tithes seems very well placed in the format but I will report my findings and testing when I get a chance. I have cut the hidden dragonslayers for now and will be trying Knight of the White Orchid. I we manage to ramp into a third land on 2nd turn we can have the option to play Gideon, Archangel of Tithes, or Languish. It could be correct to try to put Archangel Avacyn in this deck but I want to try it without her first. If people want to try her first i would - an Ob Nixils, Linvala, Grasp of Darkness... If you want a full playset of her I'm not 100% sure
what I would drop after. My best guess would be a Languish but that could be wrong. Hope you like this build thanks for looking.
March 31. Update* This is the list I will be playing with Archangel Avacyn is just bonkers. I hated playing against it and love playing with it. Sorin is just a huge life gainer and lock on certain matches if he is able to live when you untap with him. I think 3 is the best for him but I can see two being alright as well. In play testing against other W/x deck if you plan on dropping a Gideon turn 4 and your opponent has 5 untapped land you should either rethink it or want to tick him up or -4 him straight away. Ob Nixilis is a lil lack luster but I like the card draw and kill on a stick to much. The rest of the deck is just straight one for one besides Declaration in Stone which is kind of a 2-1 but in this format I think it's like a path to exile. Your opponent has to spend two mana on a random card things could be worse than that not to mention it's great against other token strategies. I think DiS is better then silk wrap and stasis snare because Dromokas command is still a card. I'm very certain this is my final 75 but it could probably have a few more tweeks done to it. Cards to look out for and plan for are Archangel of Tithes, Vile aggregate, Archangel Avacyn, Transgress the Mind and basically any creature that is good that has butt that lives through Languish. I'm sure I missed some cards but these are the ones that really game me issues.

Update April 11th 2016---- We just had the first taste of what standard will look like with the SCG Open this past weekend. Check out the decks and videos if you haven't yet. http://www.starcitygames.com/events/090416_baltimore.html. Lots of great decks to pick from but I think the best deck still is W/B we just need to find the right version going forward. I really liked the list of Timothy Guy(28th place) http://sales.starcitygames.com//deckdatabase/displaydeck.php?DeckID=100724 but I'm going to see if i can update his list a little bit. First off this is just my opinion so right or wrong this is just how I feel. Moving on, I really don't like hangarback walker because of all the exile kill spells in the format. Sure you can flip avacyn if you'd like for casting it for 0 but honestly I don't think that is where you wanna be. I really like Knight of the White Orchid in W/B because it gets us that much closer to our powerful cards and he provides decent blocks with first strike. Next I think this format is really going to shift to smaller creatures and Languish is looking better and better. The deck still focus around tokens to an extent but if you are playing against the mirror or any B/X deck I would try to error on the side of caution and put in Virulent plague and Flaying Tendrils. Dark Petition just looks really great. You can tutor for alot of different things can cast it with mastery on. Sideboards vary from person to person depending on the meta and the maybeboard are good places to start it you see alot of Vampires or Eldrazi. I hope this update version proves to be great in testing. Just be ready for alot of Bant CoCo and W/U Humans. The last thing I want to touch on is the mana base. We have alot of double colored spells in the early game but I'm hoping that with the 12 dual lands we will be able to do what we want when we want to.
