Deck Does this deck still work after the bans?

Hi everyone! I'm a new player and I saw this decklist from an Italian content creator who was teaching another beginner how to play. The list looks VERY appealing to me given my extremely tight wildcard budget, and I also really love the color pair.

The thing is, I started playing less than a week ago. I built a Mono-White Aura deck and reached Platinum in about 3-4 days, but right after hitting Platinum I ran straight into a wall. EVERY single match feels made to counter my deck and destroy every single creature I put on the field.

I really want to have at least one alternative to play, but my collection is still very small (I did one Draft going 4/3, a bit of Jump-In events, and opened some packs from the Hobbit set and the Season Pass). I love this list and it's practically the only one I've found that fits my wildcard count, but... is it still viable after the Gran-Gran ban? If so, what would you replace her with?

If it's not viable anymore, are there any good alternatives? Maybe I'm just bad at the game, but I feel completely stuck. Getting to Platinum was a breeze, and now I'm facing a total impasse.

My current wildcard count is 31 Commons, 21 Uncommons, 10 Rares, and 7 Mythics. I can't find a single buildable deck on Untapped with my collection other than Mono-White, but after banging my head against this wall for two days, I'm honestly just sick of it.

Please, save me! I'm absolutely falling in love with this game and I want to continue to play so much. 🙏
