On top of that, the rest of the creatures had some very nice synergy. Mirage-Tempest White Weenie: Empyrial Armor was a big part of this deck, and it is for all intents and purposes “a good creature.” Its purpose is just to deal attack damage it is essentially a three-mana hasty Maro.

It always amuses me when someone posts, usually in a thread discussing the merits of a card like Eight-and-a-Half-Tails, that, “Wizards doesn't understand that White Weenie won't be good until they reprint Armageddon and Swords to Plowshares.
