Don't put your commander in your card list, it is already counted so this makes you 1 card short in your deck.

Lands and mana fixing suggestions.Cavern of Souls ,Emeria, The Sky Ruin ,Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx ,Weathered Wayfarer ,Caged Sun ,and Land Tax . These will help out a lot.

Mana rocks, you need some. Some good ones are, Basalt Monolith , Mana Vault , and Thran Dynamo . Add in a Unwinding Clock and a Voltaic Key and their value goes up. You could drop your land cards down to 38ish.

You need so lower curve creatures for the early game, like Stoneforge Mystic , Leonin Relic-Warder , Knight of the White Orchid , Student of Warfare . These are low cost but still have value in the late game.

Quicksilver Amulet can help you get some of your higher cost creatures out earlier.

If you want take a look at the deck Host of Heaven/Fist of God it's my mono white deck. It's a work in progress as I obtain the higher cost cards.

How about Avacyn, Angel of Hope instead of the other one?

Avacyn, Angel of Hope is on my acquire list as it is a costly card. It will certainly be added once acquired.

Pariah and Pariah's Shield would be a good and cheaper alternative for ur general 2nd ability.

This deck looks really slow. You're going to need a lot of mana rocks to make up for the high CMC your creatures are going for, so adding things like Urza's Incubator , Gilded Lotus , Darksteel Ingot , Caged Sun , Gauntlet of Power , and Coalition Relic would do wonders for the deck. And if you are feeling really cheesy, running Cryptic Gateway or even Quicksilver Amulet will let you cheat out a lot of your creatures.

I'm really not a fan of Obelisk of Urd, since Coat of Arms is a vast improvement over it. Your deck could also doesn't really have any way of dealing with things your opponent's play, so adding removal like Swords to Plowshares , Path to Exile , Oblation , and Return to Dust would help you stay relevant on the board.

Thank you Teal_Fox I have on my acquire list Gilded Lotus , Caged Sun and both have arrived at my local game store recently.

The suggestion of swapping Obelisk of Urd and Coat of Arms is more likely going to happen.

I did find that I needed a few more instants so ill be making room for them.

Also, though not an Angel, Serra Ascendant is pretty crazy early game in EDH

Before I decided to go tribal Serra Ascendant was a must. She is in my other EDH deck.

Hiya,

I'd suggest Kor Haven and Pearl Medallion for right now.. My Avacyn EDH deck might have more ideas for you:

Avacyn's Spirit Bomb

If you want, take a look at my deck Genji Glove it could give you some ideas.

You currently have way too many mountains in your deck, by about 7 i'd say, replace them with plains. If you aren't planning on adding in more red I would suggest going mono white as you have a fairly good base for mono-white right now. This is my Mono-white deck Host of Heaven/Fist of God it isn't great, but it can hold its own.

I am actually going to be adding more red here once I get some more cards in. Cards like Akroma, Angel of Fury , Gisela, Blade of Goldnight , and Firemane Angel are the creatures that will be added. I was also thinking about adding non creature cards like Gleam of Battle , Waves of Aggression , and Savage Beating . After having played this deck a lot I pretty much can get a win condition by bringing out my commander. Having three combat turns per turn along with double strike will certainly end a game quickly at that point.

Savage Beating + Spellbinder

Aggravated Assault + Sword of Feast and Famine are both pseudo-infinite combos, and great for your theme.

I've had it go off and ended up attacking a guy for 3 flying damage over and over again until he died. That ended my combo since the other opponent could block me.

Now if I had with Trailblazer's Boots or some other condition to make me unblockable it's a full on infinite combo.

Those are great suggestions that I think I can work into the deck. Great thing amount some of the angels is they do have protection so in a sense they are unblockable making that combo very possible.

I can't stress enough how much mana an angel deck really needs to be effective.

I love angels and run a mono white tribal myself, cards that could help your mana situation:

Land Tax , Weathered Wayfarer , Everflowing Chalice , Thunder Totem , Boros Signet

Some other angel's that are worth looking into (have proven themselves to me):

Mirror Entity , Angel of Jubilation , Twilight Shepherd (protection from board wipes), and one of my favorite combos: Anything that gives creatures vigilance and Pristine Angel ... Unblockable, untargetable (mostly), can block anything!

j957o3 says... #18

Thanks for the comment. Playing in the tribal league that is in the local area the creature type must 100% be the one chosen unless the card directly says chosen creature in the rules text. Everflowing Chalice is a great idea and I found some one who has Twilight Shepherd , still acquiring more. Picked up Firemane Angel , Sublime Archangel , Serra Avenger , and Basandra, Battle Seraph today. Also added in Gilded Lotus to help with mana. Pristine Angel is already in my deck list and is a wonderful card.

Thanks for the suggestion. I have a friend who has Blinding Angel I may trade for. I am going to play test a couple times to see if that card may be necessary .

Since you've got Quicksilver and Belbes.. Akroma, Angel of Wrath or Akroma, Angel of Fury and I think you'd love Cryptic Gateway

October 23, 2014 1:35 p.m.

j957o3 says... #22

Thanks very much for the hint to Cryptic Gateway that should help me out also. Akroma, Angel of Fury is en route to me currently and I was going to wait for the reprint later this year of Akroma, Angel of Wrath to pick that one up.

Perhaps add some cards like Hall of Triumph , Obelisk of Urd , Door of Destinies and maybe Adaptive Automaton ?

October 24, 2014 9:05 a.m.

j957o3 says... #24

Out of those suggestions only Door of Destinies is in my deck. I felt that +1/+1 isnt enough to take up a card slot in my deck.
