Mono White is making a
comeback, and Dawn Elemental is taking her place
in the control version of it though it doesn't
qualify well in weenie. Wizards seems to be doing
a decent job of balancing the colors a little
better. Mono white just wasn't seen in serious
constructed up to this point. Dawn Elemental,
Exalted Angel, along with a few important Common
and Uncommons from block, seem to have made white
a finally worthwhile color to look at. And
when 8th Edition is released at the end of this
week, who knows.
In limited, it's a
great card, but it's casting cost of WWWW makes it
very difficult to get into play. If I were going
heavy white, I'd still try it, though.

A hot player in the
block MWC (Mono-White Control) deck. This helps to
keep the aggressive decks at bay, and can also
swing unimpeded by a Carbonize. It does cost WWWW
though, so you have to be running mono-white to
take advantage of this. If you can though, and
you're playing creatures, I highly recommend you
use this.
In limited, it's a
little tough to cast, due to the colored mana
requirement, but in a deck with white as its
primary color, be sure to play it.

Good in limited and constructed. In limited
you have to be going very heavy white to play
this. In constructed, or should I say block,(OnBC)
its a big part of mono-white control. A good card,
but I doubt it will matter much after this block
rotates.

What a cool card. I
think the picture is good and the card has a fair
cost.
The WWWWcc makes it VERY tough in a multi colored
deck. Also, I wouldn't say
the elemental belongs in White Weenie decks if
that's what you're thinking.
WW tries to get the opponent to 0 live as soon as
possible, and Dawn
Elemental is more of a defensive card, which I
don't think fits into White
Weenie. Still, that doesn't mean don't use it,
it's a great card, have fun
with it.
