    For the brief 3-month period between the rotation of Alara and the entrance of M11, this will likely be the deck I will be sleeving up to play.

    Creatures - 19
    4 Knight Exemplar
    4 Student of Warfare
    4 Knight of the White Orchid
    3 Kor Skyfisher
    2 Stoneforge Mystic
    2 Baneslayer Angel

    Enchantments - 7
    4 Honor of the Pure
    3 Oblivion Ring

    Instants - 7
    4 Path to Exile
    3 Brave the Elements

    Artifacts - 2
    2 Basilisk Collar

    Planeswalkers - 1
    1 Elspeth, Knight-Errant

    Lands - 24
    14 Plains
    2 Emeria, the Sky Ruin
    4 Marsh Flats
    4 Arid Mesa

    Basically White Weenies with Knight Exemplar, which is my favourite White card in M11 (new card-wise). Leyline of Sanctity is better, but I like this card more because of its sauce (INDESTRUCTIBLE KNIGHTS D: ).

    Oh! Right, right. Sideboard.

    Sideboard - 15
    4 Kor Firewalker
    4 White Knight
    2 Gideon Jura
    2 Baneslayer Angel
    2 Pithing Needle
    1 Oblivion Ring

    Q/C welcome.
     
    You might want to try Leyline of Sanctity in the sideboard because, to be honest with you, it's a better card against red than Firewalker is, even. When all that burn can't hit you in the face, it's kinda a giant kick in the balls to the red player.

    You also might want to put Devout Lightcaster in White Knight's place. I know WK is a Knight but being able to kill Sarkhan, Broodmate Dragon, Bloodghast or Vampire Nocturnus is in general better than a 3/3 indestructible first striker that, in most cases, will be used defensively (which makes indestructibility...moot)

    I also think Wall of Omens is better than Kor Skyfisher as a two-drop. Card advantage is more important than a Lightning Bolt target that will just set your tempo back.

    Day of Judgment is also better than Brave the Elements here. Just because it's hilariously unfair.
     
    Leyline of Sanctity would be cooler for control; the Red player can't deal with Firewalker at all, literally, unless they get their own Leyline of something that prevents the prevention of damage... Leyline of Sanctity does stop Searing Blaze, though, which is ridiculously efficient as 2-drops go.

    Brave the Elements is probably better than Day of Judgment. Knight Exemplar is a gigantic lightningrod for removal half the time it's on the field, and I don't really want everything on the board to die when it's not there; it also facilitates alpha strikes.

    The point of Wall of Omens better than Skyfisher... I'm not sure about that, actually. Theoretically Wall is better than Skyfisher in terms of card quality... but Skyfisher is a flying guy, and a 2/3 to boot, so it can pose a better threat on the board; furthermore, when you play O-Ring on a PW only to have your opponent playing a second copy, you can Skyfisher for Legendary rule to have both die. (Though this application may seem somewhat impractical, it applies somewhat more often than I thought) Skyfisher is also actually good with Collar.

    I'll test with Omens, I guess.

    Devout Lightcaster is a good point.
