White Weenie is an aggro deck comprised of the most efficient White creatures for their mana cost. It is
normally a mono colored deck however there is the occasional W/x build that pops up. The deck is also very resilient to sweeper effects.

Variants:

Kithkin- Tribal from Lorwyn block
Mirrormaster- Kithkin White Weenie with Thistledown Liege and Mirrorweave
Soldier- Also tribal but incorporating the new soldiers from the 2010 core set.

Kithkin Militia: Strategy Session


















Hello everyone, and welcome back to Building on a Budget. Last week, we evolved the Kithkin Militia deck to a mainly Kithkin-based White Weenie deck with a respectable 10-4 record. However, there were multiple cries from the forums and my email that went along these lines:

"Hey! Anyone can build a White Weenie Deck! There's no skill involved in playing or building that deck—why did you waste your time?"

And my response? There's a remarkable amount of depth involved in selecting the right sixty cards for any Magic deck, no matter how straightforward the deck might seem on the surface. In particular, there are four advanced principles of Magic strategy that I'm going to explain today. These concepts are curve, synergy, threat density and threat selection.

These four cornerstones of an aggressive strategy are all interrelated—you cannot take one into account without the others. Curve refers to the mana cost of your cards, and making sure that you are able to maximize the use of your mana each turn. Synergy is having your cards work well together. Threat density means having enough threats to kill your opponent with, and threat selection is making sure you have the right threats. Let's take a look at each of these one-by-one using last week's final deck, and then see why it is so important to a winning aggressive deck to have these four concepts work in harmony.
