What is the "Most White" Mono White Commander?

[[Myrel, Shield of Argive]] stax-ish AND tokens.

Also would suggest [[Mongara the Diplomat]]

Eight and a half tails

I'll give my shot. It's [[Linden, the Steadfast Queen]]. Triple white casting cost, white background in the art and it cares about white creatures.

[[Adeline, Resplendent Cathar]]

[[Delney, Streetwise Lookout]] weenies!! Love this mono white deck, I've built several and took them all apart till this one came out!

[[Heliod, Sun-Crowned]]

White's identity is weakly all over the place. I don't feel like any single Legendary white creature encompasses all of white's vibes. My own monoW deck is [[Mangara of Corondor]], which in itself emphasizes white's great utilitarian creatures and top-notch spot removal while the rest of the deck focuses on white's protection suite, catchup mechanics, boardwipes, and blinking. Despite all of that, it still doesn't do everything white does!

[[Mageta the Lion]] nothing screams white to me as much as a board wipe on a creature that also makes it so you have no cards in hand.

[[the gaffer]] 

[[Isamaru, Hound of Konda]]

He does nothing. He is vanilla as all heck. A 2/2 vanilla for {W} though, is like the most white weenie to ever be.

Not sure if it’s the most white, but I’ve been having fun with [[darien, king of kjeldor]] as a tokens and lifegain deck

Heliod probably.

Imo: White's Identity is weenies, keywords, anthems, justice, and stax. What happens to be a racial tribe that can support ALL of that at once. Mono-white Humans.

Specifically led by [[Greymond, Avacyn's Stalwart]]. This guy enables everything white wants to do and empowers you for getting a whole group of them together.

So white is about order, life, purity, unity, cohesion etc and my vote for that would be [[Odric, Lunarch Marshal]]. All your dudes get all your keywords, all your units working in tandem, sharing gifts for the greater good, covering each others weakness etc. Very white thematic commander imo.

[[Kemba, Kha Regent]] does equipment and tokens all at once

My vote is for [[Avacyn, Angel of Hope]]

I like to run Odric. It's actually my go-to for new players so they can practice the various combat mechanics

[[Commander Eesha]]

[[Sephara, sky's blade]]

[[Elesh Norn, Mother of Machines]] is my choice, and I love it as my mono W Blink deck

[[Isamaru, Hound of Konda]] – what is whiter than that, the king of White Weenie?

[[Odric, Lunarch Marshal]]. Cares about combat? Yes. Human? Yes. Cares about having a sizeable board? Yes. Cares about combat-oriented keyword abilities, something popular on white creatures? Yes.

Giada font of hope. What screams more white than big angels and life gain?

Zeriam

[[Delney, Streetwise Lookout]] MonoW Weenie, supports the strat pontently both by doubling up on triggers and making the attackers harder to block.

A 7 mana 3/3 with indestructible vigilance and bushido 5. [[Konda, Lord of Eiganjo]]

[[Elesh Norn]] is pillowfort, makes tokens, is an Anthem, and is a board wipe.

She's pretty white.

[[Avacyn, Angel of hope]]

My favorite is Giada, font of hope (running angel tribal).

White feels like the colour of "We're all collectively going to play by the following additional rules that I shall now dictate. These rules might be oppressive to those that live outside the rule of law (you), but that's the price of those taking part in civilized society (me) seeing greater prosperity."

I think the OG [[Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobyte]] nails all of that. It might not be the most interesting, or the strongest, but it really nails the flavour of just laying down the law in a dumb, blunt, inflexible and uncaring kind of way. It immediately makes itself the arbiter of righteousness and delineates who is good and who is bad when it enters the battlefield. It's not interested in a spirited but respectful debate about what constitutes "good" or "bad". It already has it's mind made up, it's right and you're wrong. If you're not playing on the team it lays down some harsh judgement. If you are, you're rewarded by getting swole.

[[Avacyn, Angel of Hope]] is my commander in my mono white deck.

Linvana, Keeper of silence. I call the deck “Fun Police” all it does is gain life and prevent opponents from using their decks.

[[Mondrak]]

Giada, Font of Hope  - (G) (SF) (txt) (ER)
Omnath, Locus of Mana  - (G) (SF) (txt) (ER)
^{[[cardname]] or [[cardname|SET]] to call}

I would argue [[Rune-Tail, Kitsune Ascendant]]; cares about life, defensive, not a 1/1 but still small, turns into an enchantment.

I’m incredibly disappointed to see that nobody has mentioned [[Thalia, Guardian of Thraben]]

Is a Human Soldier ✅

Savannah Lions stat line ✅

Has a good combat ability ✅

Stax in the command zone ✅

There’s nothing whiter. So white she should be named Karen.

I'm planning to build an [[Apothecary White]] deck revolving around life gain, soldier tokens, and food tokens.

White is even in the name!

[[Heliod, Sun-Crowned]] is both lifegain and +1/+1 counters

I think it would be [[Greymond]]. Pick 2 out of the 3 keyword of lifelink, vigilance, and first strike. Plus human tribal, and a +2+2 buff. It's almost the whole package of mono white commander. Lol.

[[Avacyn, Guardian Angel]] gives me mid-tier mono-white vibes. It's not a high-powered deck, but it's good for politics and defending creatures.

[[Elesh Norn, Mommy of Machines]] mono white blink and stax.

[[general jarkeld]] mentioning cause it’s cool

My mono-W is [[Commander Eesha]] protections tribal

[[Cho]]

For me, it's [[Lita, Mechanical Engineer]]. Who doesn't like zeppelins?

https://www.moxfield.com/decks/54bdlP1h2kuuXQ0kY3Spgw

[Celestine, the Living Saint]

Avacyn.

[[Zetalpa, Primal Dawn]]

Huge expensive flyer with keywords? Check.

Lots of little flyers with enchantments and equipment? Check.

Play premium removal and like 20 boardwipes, including truly nasty stuff like [[worldslayer]] and [[armageddon]]? Check.

Highly recommended for the monowhite experience :)

[[General Jarkeld]].

[[Jazal Goldmane]] is my ‘most white’ commander. I’ve found his ability to be highly effective in semi competitive pods. It really is about splunking out 8 or 9 tokens or low cost creatures as fast as possible, casting the commander and paying for his ability. Suddenly those 8 tokens get +8 + 8 each and can often overwhelm a defender. The commander ability doesn’t require a tap so if you have the mana you can pay twice, so 8 attacking creatures could in theory get +16 +16 each.

Add in some protection cards, removal effects, board wipes and the deck works well.

[[Valkmira, Protector’s Shield]] specifically. That thing is insane

[[Heliod, Sun-Crowned]] Life-gain and +1 counters... what can possibly be more mono-white than that

Avacyn, Angel of Hope.

Lena, Selfless Champion

[[Odric, Master Tactician]]. he is unfairness incarnat

[[Linden, the Steadfast Queen]]

No generic mana to be found

Im a huge fan of [[God-Eternal Oketra]], she just makes dudes when you play creatures. Combine it with the creatures that can return themselves to your hand like [[Whitemane Lion]], [[Stonecloaker]], and [[Kor skyfisher]], and you end up producing decent Statline tokens for a super low cmc. She can also kill through commander damage thanks to her double strike. She is fragile, but thats okay because I enjoy her all the same! Here's my most recent rendition of her, I find decent success on her but there are 4-5 more creatures that blink other creatures but not themselves that can be put in to save important pieces like Oketra herself.

[[Odric Master Tactician]]

Just straight up controls combat. "You will not block me/you will block my army in the most disadvantageous way possible."

Hopefully, by the time you've built an army of humans or soldier tokens and creatures with abilities like battalion, you'll have enough mana to play him and equip swiftfoot boots in the same turn and just swing to win or get to a winning position. I haven't made this deck in EDH yet, but he was a staple in my soldier deck back in standard and essentially the commander of that one.

I'm a fan of [[Daxos, Blessed By the Sun]] for mono-white mainly because I'm a sucker for the whole ETB life gain thing that white has a bunch of options for.

[[Thalia]]

[[Isamaru, Hound of Konda]] was my first mono-white commander. It doesn't get any more white than that.

Greymond, Avacyns stalwart

[[Rune-Tail, Kitsune Ascendent]]

Going out on a bit of a limb here - but my suggestion would be [[Myojin of Blooming Dawn]]. There's some really fun things you can do with it once you can pay that massive CMC. Loads of mana rocks, loads of Plains fetching (which is helped by some recently printed cards like [[Claim Jumper]] ) really help too.

Myojin of Blooming Dawn has indestructible, it makes Spirit tokens, it's in white so you can proliferate its Indestructible Counters, you can return it to your hand to recast again afterwards. The only problem is that nothing happens when you cast it from your Command Zone - so you need to use effects like [[Command Beacon]] to get it all working as it should. If you have the patience to fill the board with spirits in the early turns, then get this huge thing cast from hand to make more spirits, then run a win con like [[Moonshaker Cavalry]] it can be a pretty fun deck to play around with!

[[Light-Paws, Emperor's Voice]] aura voltron.

I'd argue it's Darien, King of Kjeldor. White weenie creation and synergy with Soul-Sisters-style lifegain?

Heliod

Rune-Tail, Kitsune Ascendant.

It’s a stax and lifegain deck. Pretty gross 😂

[[Major Teroh]] the card speaks for itself.

I have a [[Masako, the Humorless]] mono white soldiers deck thats sooooo white. Shes cheap, not too powerful, and soldier tribal is probably one of the most white archetypes

I asked my boyfriend about which was the most color of a color after reading your post about which was the greenest (he said Omnath right away) and honestly white was the longest discussion we had. My initial idea was [[Avacyn, Angel of Hope]] but when he said Avacyn like I'd actually said my idea out loud, I mentioned that she seemed so white she was red, just like her flip card, and Avacyn is one of his favorite characters in MTG so i figured he was a little biased. That was when he said that's exactly why she was the most white, she was so holier-than-thou, so protective, so righteous that she'd smite other angels without a second thought. Now he's a little biased in the lore direction (we both are a bit), so I'm not sure if we'd have a basic answer based solely on card mechanics.

P.S. if you're curious what his answer for blue was, he answered even faster than Omnath. It was [[Baral, Chief of Compliance]]

[[Odric, Master Tactician]] is my most white thought but seeing some of the others posted Myrel is it.

Mangara The Diplomat. I use him for my mono white does not suck good stuff deck

Heliod the boring ass sun crowned

What about eight and a half tails, it's so mono white it makes things become white

Preston the vanisher

It would forever be [Isamaru, Hound of Konda], beceause I've started Magic when it came out and was one of the centerpiece of Weenie White at the time. I was pretty young, but reading articles about it, + it being a 2/2 for 1 was so insane for my brain back then.

Im thinking mangara

Avacyn pillow fort board wipe spam xd

Hototi, Dusk Drinker Have fun!

[[Delney]] is a fun commander. Lots of evasive little creatures with ETBs. Turn sideways and pump before damage.

This will be an unpopular choice, but my vote goes too [[Rune-Tail, Kitsune Ascendant]]. When we think of the white color’s attributes we think of small creatures, collective power, healing, defense and protection. Also to a lesser extent control. Building the deck around blockers who can’t die, life gain from small counters who benefit each other and form an undamagable swarm collectively is the whitest thing I can think of. If you add in some of white’s hate bears you also get the control aspect. This way WAY WAY more in keeping with white’s attributes than Elish norn even if she’s the more “powerful” commander in white

Rune-Tail definitely feels very white. It enables a lot of strategies white cares about, even if it doesn't have all of the text something like Odric does.

[[mikaeus, the lunarch]]

Avacyn

[[eight-and-a-half-tails]]

Makes things white and allows protection from white.

It's white squared

[[Mikaeus the Lunarch]] seems … so white

[[Ao, the Dawn Sky]] is my pick. So many white cards care about weenies and care about counters, a lot of the best generic white cards you play in any white deck are Mana Value 4 or less (or you just pick the ones that are during deckbuilding), and it’s really hard to beat a 5/4 Flying Vigilance with a death trigger in the Command Zone! You can build it at a cEDH level (mono white “ad naus” using [[Ashnod’s Altar]] and [[Nim Deathmantle]]), counters matter, or really any white centric strategy since Ao provides so much value. Plus you have a viable Commander Damage clock if you need it!

I have a [[Rune-tail, Kitsune Ascendant]] deck, and let me tell you, that's the most white thing I can think about: cares about your life total, is a creature but becomes an enchantment, prevents damage, which is almost only white, makes combat hell for everyone but you, makes all your weenies survive more than they should.

As an extra, you introduce an effect that people will get frustrated to interact with.

Surely not for a high power table, but pretty funny in casual ones.

I’m using [[Mangara, the Diplomat]]

[[Rune-Tail, Kitsune Ascendant]] nothing is more painful than no being able to damage your opponent if all damage gets redirected to a creature then mitigated. [[Pariah]]

[[Isamaru, Hound of Konda]]

What's more white than Savannah Lions? And this is legendary Savannah Lions with an extra point of toughness

[[Odric, Master Tactician]] is the only monowhite build Ive tried and it was surprisingly effective for as bad a rap as mono white gets. Was this weird little combo of voltron and going wide. Just keep stacking more buffs of Odric and maintain enough of a board that you can consistently use his attak trigger for free commander damge. I haven't had the deck together in a long time, I imagine I could make it much better these days.

[[Crovax, ascendant hero]]

For me, even though she's rarely seen as a commander, the most Mono White a commander gets is definitely [[Thalia, Guardian of Thraben]]. She's the perfect union of both playing small dudes with helpful (for you, at least) effects and taxing your opponents for doing anything but joining you in playing dudes.

is:commander m=/^({w})+$/ order:cmc direction:desc gives Linden, the Steadfast Queen

Very white 😁

I enjoy my [[ Evra, Halcyon Witness]] it feels like the core concept of white with catch up cards like [[ land tax]] and every white board wipe.

Karen, Supervisor Summoner

[[Avacyn, Angel of Hope]]

Heliod Ballista Stax is as White as White can get

[[myrel]] and [[balan]]

Heliod

[[Elesh norn grand cenobite]] We stronk! They weak! White is exactly that - support the collective, destroy those who oppose you.
