I had a lot of Bladur's Gate background stuff sitting around, and even more unused white cards (not much of a white mage), so I whipped up a little deck.
I'm really happy with how it turned out. There are a few pretty good combos in there.
I'd like some feedback if anyone has the time and/or interest. I'm pretty new to MTG, and I've barely played in white.

looks good i guess you can try Loran's Escape instead of blacksmith skill since you dont have artifact creatures. Valorous Stance is also nice serve as protection and removal.
if you looking to blink, ephemerate is a great card. other great mass blink spells are ghostway, eerie interlude, Lae'zel's Acrobatics and semester end.
you probably can do better than winds of rath, maybe slaughter the strong or if you want some artifact/enchantment removal with your boardwipe try tragic arrogance
you need something for ending games so maybe a pump spell or cathar crusade would do but i dont know how budget you want it to make
waxen wolf
trying to keep it sub $50 not counting basic land, but ill check out the cards you named
i dont have a real reason to keep it budget
near delta
there alot of cheap cards but cheap cards do add up
you gonna need some removal for enchantment/artifacts there isnt much in it
there alot of flexible cards here tho from Cathar Commando to [[Patrician's Scorn]]

there is a few flash creatures at 4cmc to blink your creatures, restoration angel and Glorious Protector are few choices as well
you should run Knight of the White Orchid too
even tho it not a etb, Mangara of Corondor can exile your targets while on the stack when you blink it and you can reuse it multiple times
definitely dont need Captain's Call, instead try those creatures when etb gets a creature token so you do it multiple times

even tho it not a etb, Mangara of Corondor can exile your targets while on the s...
while sorta similar, Fiend Hunter and Leonin Relic-Warder can be blink while their effect is on the stack and you can stop the return trigger when you do this.

so i tracked down a copy of lorans escape in my bulk box, and i took out a couple things to make room for more targeted removal of atifacts and echants
put a solemn simulacrum in there, for ETB ramp spam
[[devastating mastery]] for politics and a cheap ass boardwipe

Sorcery
You may pay 
rather than pay this spell's mana cost.
If the cost was paid, an opponent chooses up to two nonland permanents they control and returns them to their owner's hand.
Destroy all nonland permanents.
near delta
you dont need that many 4 mana ramp creatures, your deck isnt so mana intensive
also far traveller only works when the creature is tapped so maybe you want to find a way to tapped your creatures without them dying in combat
there are many upgrades you can do while making it budget but it still adds up in total
waxen wolf
im trying to balance power with not having to get additional cards, as this is a deck i built out of my collection
thats not to say i wont upgrade it, but its somethign that im keeping in mind
realised i have an [[angel of the ruins]] so i can easily cut a ramp creature for that
pallid sedgeBOT
Artifact Creature — Angel
Flying
When Angel of the Ruins enters the battlefield, exile up to two target artifacts and/or enchantments.
Plainscycling (, Discard this card: Search your library for a Plains card, reveal it, put it into your hand, then shuffle.)
5/7
waxen wolf
double removal on a pretty big body
do you think i should cut kor cartographer or oreskos explorer?
near delta
yeah it is pretty nice as well
waxen wolf
im thinking the latter, as its conditional
cheaper initial cost, but i can get maximum value out of the flickering
near delta
well explorer isnt ramp is just drawing of plains i think
waxen wolf
oh lol
i should read better
i have a puppet strings somewhere. i dont think i have anything else that will tap my own stuff
near delta
you should have couple of finishers at least
waxen wolf
i wonder if theres a "tap another creature you control" artifact that will give me value for the tap, rather than cost me 2

Artifact
, Tap an untapped creature you control: Add one mana of any color.
"The music is in the drum. I simply coax it out to be heard."

[[relic of legends]] also works but it expensive

Artifact
: Add one mana of any color.

maybe you pulled this too
also it only taps like 2 creatures in your deck so maybe it isnt worth it
waxen wolf
i didnt, but its tasty
it taps my commander
can flicker him with his own [[far traveler]] bg
pallid sedgeBOT
waxen wolf
basically proccing his ETB twice in a turn
[[holdout settlement]] will do it in land form too

Land

Even in areas of profound devastation, the hedrons remained intact.
waxen wolf
thanks for all the help
near delta
you still probably want a finisher with all that tokens and creatures in play
waxen wolf
any suggestions?
near delta
there alot ranging from more expensive to very cheap
cards like [[divine visitation]] or [[cathar crusade]]
near delta
they can kill very fast and are permanent effects rather than having a mass creature pump spell
restive mulch
Maybe you could use [[flicker wisp]]
pallid sedgeBOT
near delta
flickerwisp is in it

having [[moon-blessed cleric]] in for 3 enchantments seem a bit pointless I think.
pallid sedgeBOT

[[sandsower]] would be good if you want to tap more creatures to do things
pallid sedgeBOT
mental dust
have you thought about doing a soldier tribal thing with him. you can use cards that buff soldiers seen as he makes them and we're in white. A lot of soldier synergy in there
[[forbidding spirit]] is great for a blink kind of deck. It's pretty potent at stopping constant attacks coming your way
pallid sedgeBOT
Creature — Spirit Cleric
When Forbidding Spirit enters the battlefield, until your next turn, creatures can't attack you or planeswalkers you control unless their controller pays for each of those creatures.
"You will respect the dead."

also [[cathar commando]] is a brilliant removal piece

this is good

2/3 of those enchantments are part of infinites
ahh okay i did realise
mental dust
this is good
yeah this has been a headache for opponents to deal with when I've played it
waxen wolf
i have [[baird]] in there already, so itll addup nicely

it not really needed to have these ghost prison effects
you rather have more etb instead
saw you added inspired roar, you can try collective efforts and basri solidarity instead or even felidar retreat
