ww/r.dec

4 Savannah Lions
4 White Knight/Silver Knight
4 Soltari Monk/Soltari Priest

3 Orim's Chant
3 Aura of Silence
2 Gorilla Shaman

4 Lightning Bolt
4 Incinerate

3 Land Tax
2 Zuran Orb

2 Swords to Plowshares

1 Wheel of Fortune?
1 Balance
1 Fork
1 Black Vise

1 Black Lotus
1 Mox Pearl
4 Plateau
2 Flooded Strand
1 Battlefield Forge
8 Plains
4 Mountain

Im a bit iffy on running Wheel since it gives my opponant card advantage. Red is just a splash but it seems I run a bit more than a splash of red, should I play Mox Ruby in this build?

As for the Knights and Soltaris, if im expecting alot of black I will run the White Knights and Soltari Monks and if im expecting alot of red I use Silver Knights and Soltari Priests. If im not sure I go with the pro-reds as there isnt that large of a selection in black that targets my creatures.

The landtax orb combo thins my deck. Balance also does great with Zuran Orb.

The remaining componants of the deck should be self explanitory. Please comment on improvement.

My changes, without knowing your Meta:
-3 Orim's Chant
+3 Blood Moon
If you're going to splash for R, you may as well run these as well.  Blood Moon+Gorilla Shaman=Some Good.  And Orim's Chant is really more of a control card anyway.

-1 Balance
-1 Wheel of Fortune
-1 Fork
-1 Incinerate
+4 Jackal Pup
WW needs more than 14 Creatures.  Period.  You don't really gain all that much with any of these.  The only reason you should keep Black Vise is you've got a lot of LD.

-1 Incinerate
-2 Fetch
-2 Zuran Orb
-1 Battlefield Forge
+1 Mountain
+1 Lotus Petal
+1 Mox Diamond
+1 Mox Ruby
+1 Land Tax
+1 Gorilla Shaman
I think you're running too much Mana.  I think 4 Land Tax is why you play White in T1.  And with that, Mox Diamond is Much better, as are Lotus Petal
and Mox Ruby.  Also with Land Tax:

-3 Aura of Cleansing
+3 Abolish
You should never have a problem pitching a Plains.  I also think the Aura is rather slow, even with the artifact mana.

-2 Incinerate
+2 Swords
Swords is just better.  It kills creatures better.

So here's the deck I would play:

5 Plains
4 Plateau
4 Land Tax
3 Mountain
1 Black Lotus
1 Mox Pearl
1 Mox Ruby
1 Mox Diamond
1 Lotus Petal

4 Silver Knight
4 Soltari Priest
4 Savannah Lions
4 Jackal Pups
1 Black Vise

4 Wasteland
3 Blood Moon
3 Gorilla Shaman
1 Strip Mine

4 Lightning Bolt
4 Swords to Plowshares
3 Abolish

Why not consider Bonesplitter or Exalted angel?

Bonesplitters are essentially Savannah Lions 5-8.  If you intend on going with shadow dorks and racing, then these are so very good.  Exalteds are among the best WW cards ever.

There are Land Taxes in a list without Scroll Rack next to them. I'm speechless.

Well, maybe I'm not. Tax/Rack is way too slow. Tithe is better. Abolish is a good choice over Aura of Silence if you run Tithe, but in its absence I'd choose Seal of Cleansing. Also, what are you expecting to play against that you think WW is a good idea? Generally it's just way too awful to play unless your metagame is full of nine-year-old Sligh players.
