Playing the two best Dominaria angels Shalai, Voice of Plenty and Lyra Dawnbringer in a deck that makes the most of both. With Core 2019, we also get Resplendent Angel which, when paired with the ramp and other angels in this deck, can be downright broken.

Dorks to ramp Lyra out on turn three, and lower land count to make the most of Ajani Unyielding's +2. Plenty of mana-sinks in Shalai and the newbie. History of Benalia's in there as its own little powerhouse, but I could see cutting it for something else.

The deck should survive rotation decently. I'm considering Song of Freyalise as yet another mana-dork enabler (gives white mana which is huge). Losing Ajani feels bad, as does losing Angel of Sanctions and Cast Out, but I'm sure there'll be stuff to replace them with. Since we have a decent number of creatures, Huatli, Radiant Champion might be decent.
