Some thoughts:

  • A bunch of your cards aren't modern-legal. They're all the one's highlighted in red, so Archangel of Strife, Exalted Angel, Noble Templar, Wizards of Thay, Decanter of Endless Water, Robe of the Archmagi, Sol Ring, Ascend from Avernus, Fountain of Cho, Seat of the Synod, Promise of Tomorrow, and Reverent Mantra.

  • You're playing a lot more cards than the 60 required. Any amount of cards over 60 reduces a decks consistency and generally makes it weaker - I'd suggest heavily on trying to cut back to 60 cards.

  • You're currently playing waaay too many cards as 1-ofs or 2-ofs. This is going to make your deck super inconsistent and clumsy to pilot. You should be aiming for the majority of your deck to be playsets (4-ofs) of cards. A good strategy for new deckbuilders is to pick 9 cards, and run playsets (4-ofs) of each of those (making 36 cards) alongside 24 lands (for a 60 card deck).

  • Your mana curve is waay too high. Most modern decks can't justify running more than 4 cards (1 playset) costing 4 mana, and seldom run anything costing more than this much mana. You've got a whopping 23 cards costing 4-or-more mana, which is far too much. Going from the above suggestion of picking 9 cards, the mana costs of those cards should look something like 1,1,1,2,2,2,3,3,4.

Rare/mythic morph cards or cards that care about face down cards especially if from older sets. They are all good prices right now and most will spike if a morph Commander is revealed.

She did the math incorrectly--doubling effects stack with one another. Here's the breakdown:

Exalted Angel by itself:

Total: 32 Life

Noble Purpose by way of Exalted Angel:

Total: 32 Life

Ormendahl, Profane Prince by itself:

Total: 72 Life

Noble Purpose by way of Ormendahl, Profane Prince:

Total: 72 Life

Grand Total: 32 + 32 + 72 + 72 = 208 Life

So, while playing the other day my friend Ayesha had this on the table:

  1. Alhammarret's Archive
  2. Noble Purpose
  3. 2x Rhox Faithmender

Then she attacked with:

So, according to her the life gain goes like this:

Partial Total of +13 life.

Now:

  1. Alhammarret's Archive (13x2) = 26
  2. Noble Purpose(13x2) = 26
  3. 2x Rhox Faithmender (13x4) = 52

For a grant total of:

+104 life!!!

Is this correct?

One of the biggest lessons I learned since I first started playing Commander/EDH, is the first thing you need to ask yourself when choosing a commander is "How can I exploit this commander?" Avacyn, Angel of Hope is a powerful card on its own, but it can turn the card Armageddon, from destroy all lands, to destroy all lands but your own. It's things like that that make a deck strong. Lyra in particular is strong with a card like Exalted Angel. The reason why is because the wording of the card means it technically has lifelink, without counting as lifelink. So if Lyra is out, the Exalted Angel gains twice the life of damage done. I learned this playing Essence Sliver and Syphon Sliver, I like slivers.

Speaking of which, you should make full use of your commander's abilities and have more angels. You have quite a few removal spells, it would be a good idea to combine removal and control with angel creatures ie: Sunblast Angel, Angel of Deliverance, or the aforementioned Angel of the Dire Hour. Magic is a game of making the most use out of each card you have. Linvala, Keeper of Silence is also a good card to have. It can shut down entire decks, without interfering with your own (Seeing as how angels rarely have activated abilities).

If you want to see more examples of this stuff you can check out my own personal mono-white deck: Blood for Sword, Sword for Blood or any of my other decks.

I hope this helps. I think building a deck to honor your mother like this is really awesome :) I wish you the best on your journeys to come.

Hey kamelyan,

definitely bring in Enlightened Tutor. This card can search up your infinite-combo pieces Rest in Peace or Helm of Obedience, or both Altars with Reveillark-Karmic Guide-combo or other useful stuff. Tutors are gold in EDH. Also definitely consider Recruiter of the Guard. He synergizes with all your flicker/etb-effects, can search up i.e. Karmic Guide or Knight-Captain of Eos or Ranger of Eos or other stuff and is a soldier, which again synergizes with Knight-Captain of Eos & Captain of the Watch. Since you have very strong etbs also maybe consider Eerie Interlude against mass removals and for value.

You should play more lands. 38 at least and a little more artifact ramp cause your commander is expensive. My draw hands were mostly mana heavy. With this you can play your 4-5 mana stuff earlier. Definitely bring in more card draw. Big suggestion is Skullclamp here. Works really well with your 1/1 tokens!

Some cards I recommend to cut: Angel of Flight Alabaster you only have 1 Spirit and that's Karmic Guide. Exalted Angel is slow and does not enough for it's mana in my opinion. Consider Archangel of Thune to pump your whole team, maybe and more budget Victory's Herald for evasion. Exquisite Archangel is in my opinion better suited in combo-decks which drain themselves or something like this.

Oh I guess you mostly need to cut cards:

Ageless Entity is just a big fat boy, no evasion, no +1/+1 counter synergy. He doesn't do enough for 5 mana. Baneslayer Angel is kinda in the same boat. Gains some life, but not super resilient, and not a super fast clock. Exalted Angel falls under the same category of medium beaters. Probably Gisela, the Broken Blade too?

All 3 soul sisters should go, they're pure dedicated life gain with no other upside in a deck that already gains plenty of life. They might be good enough for Karlov that gets immediate value off of repeated small incremental life gain, but not for you.

Gifted Aetherborn no

Sangromancer is pure dedicated life gain on a medium body. I don't think much of it but it can situationally gain crazy life. I'd cut it but I can see the argument for it.

Siege Rhino maaaaaaaybe? If you intend to go full on tempo agro? Doesn't feel like an amazing strategy tho, and the deck feels more grindy than agro.

Quiet Disrepair this is a comically bad way to get rid of a problem artifact or enchantment, and some of those faster, more certain methods gain life anyway.

Leyline of Vitality is basically just a soul sister.

Maybe trim a few pieces of your more mediocre spot removal? Molder sticks out as pretty bad.

6 field sweeps seems a little high considering you kind of want your field to stick, and your recursion isn't super strong. Day of Judgment at least seems like it could go.

You got like 10 ways to kill artifacts/enchantments, so Fracturing Gust might be overkill.
