Avian Changeling, Irregular Cohort and Mirror Entity are solid dragons.

You know what's a great way to trigger the life gain requirement on Crested Sunmare every turn, not just your own turns? Sun Droplet - if your opponent's taking swings at you before you get your Sunmare out, it will load up on some counters and gain you 1 life on each player's upkeep, not just your own upkeeps. This suits the Sunmare just fine, who will be giving you an indestructible 5/5 on each player's turn!

It's also worth noting that Armored Pegasus does indeed count as a pegasus, not a horse. If you're going for the 'tribal' feel, you might be better served by Avian Changeling (as an actual flying horse) or Diamond Mare (as a horse that gains you life.)

Some options that might be worth considering: Avian Changeling , Fire-Belly Changeling , Impostor of the Sixth Pride , Irregular Cohort , Universal Automaton .

Cheers!

Grubbernaut, I'm trying to stick to Angels as much as possible, although Avian Changeling is up for consideration (mostly because it flies).

In regards to Potion of Healing , my logic was "I need something to draw cards, even if it is a cantrip." Most other decks I've seen have Prophetic Prism , so I was running Scroll of Avacyn , but when I saw Potion of Healing , I thought it was neat. Upping the land count might be a good idea anyways.

Glimmering Angel was added in for fun, but I was running Angelic Page before. I added it back, I felt like it was a bad idea cutting it. Thanks for confirming my gut feeling.

Thanks for the input! I normally play EDH, but the few times I did play pauper with my friend, we had a good time.

If you're willing to deviate from the Angel plan, this deck is screaming for Squadron Hawk. Stalwart is decent, but the rest of the angels here are pretty behind the curve for pauper; you could consider Guardian of the Guildpact, but even that is probably more of a sideboard card. If you're going to stick to angels, I'd strongly advise going mono white; the splash just isn't worth it for a 4-mana 2/2 flyer that you can dump extra mana into to give protection temporarily, generally.

Also: Journey to Nowhere is going to be a better card most of the time over O-ring.

Potion of Healing isn't doing a whole lot, either; it replaces itself, but the deck doesn't have a method of taking advantage of the lifegain. If you're going to stick to a high mana curve, I'd suggest something like Traveler's Amulet, Wanderer's Twig, or Renegade Map - or better yet, just up the land count. 20 is very low with the amount of 4-drops you've got.

Some other random cards that might fit the general idea: Doomed Traveler, Sunlance, Battle Screech, and Holy Light for the sideboard.

There's not really any other good real angels in pauper, but there are some changelings you could consider, like Impostor of the Sixth Pride, or Avian Changeling.

Cheers!

I've updated the deck by going Orzhov and adding a bunch of cheap white changelings like Impostor of the Sixth Pride , Avian Changeling , and Irregular Cohort . I've also included three copies of Brainspoil to tutor up Liliana's Contract . The deck is now much more consistent overall.

also, don't forget about changelings since you're using Lyra Dawnbringer . Avian Changeling is a good one since it already has flying.

LolomonPlay Game-Trail Changeling and Avian Changeling seem a bit underwhelming, unless they are absolutely necessary for the Atog account

The Mending of Dominaria does not seem so important here too
