Archon of EmeriautilityBudget$2.67Taxes opponents in a way that restricts spell sequencing and slows combat-heavy turns, similar to Angelic Arbiter's ability to shut down a turn plan. It is a cheaper disruptive white creature that plays a prison/stax role.Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobitefinisher$19.08A white finisher that heavily suppresses opposing boards while presenting a dominant flying threat. Like Angelic Arbiter, it stabilizes the game and makes attacking into you much worse.Linvala, Keeper of Silenceutility$17.56Provides a strong static hate effect on opposing creatures, functioning as a white creature-based lock piece. It does not stop attacking directly, but it similarly restricts opponents' ability to execute their game plan.Luminarch Ascensionutility$11.24A white control payoff that discourages opponents from attacking you and gives you inevitability once the board is stabilized. It fills a similar defensive, combat-deterring role in slower white decks.Sanctum PrelateutilityBudget$3.08A disruptive white creature that limits what opponents can cast, echoing Angelic Arbiter's spell/attack tension. It is more narrow but can be even more oppressive against specific mana values.Mangara, the Diplomatcard_drawBudget$0.91Rewards you for playing a defensive game and punishes opponents for overcommitting multiple spells or attacks. It is a softer, card-advantage-oriented white creature with a similar control shell role.Archangel of Tithesutility$7.67Taxing attackers and blockers creates a combat lock that overlaps with Angelic Arbiter's attack denial plan. It is a comparable white flying threat that pressures board states in a defensive shell.Baird, Steward of ArgiveutilityBudget$0.26Imposes attack taxes that make combat awkward for opponents, serving a similar defensive prison function. While much cheaper and less threatening, it occupies the same control-oriented role.
