Well, two cards come to mind: Serra Ascendant and Chalice of Life  Flip

Great deck though.

You should look into Sunbond I play it in my lifegain deck and it works great!

PooTaaToo_King - Not sure how I could fit that card in the deck. I would have to replace Angelic Accord, and I certainly wouldn't want to do that. Thanks for the suggestion though.

What does everyone think of 2 new Heliod in place of 2 Ghost-Lit Redeemer?

Surprised to not see Bishop of Wings in here. T1 Ajanis Welcome, T2 Bishop, T3 Resplendant Angel, gain five life, eot make a 4/4 and gain another five life! Plus the 1/1 spirits ability gives you a lot of resilience against spot removal and wraths alike.

Silverdrake - That would be an excellent addition! Must have overlooked him when M20 came out.

Thank you for bringing him to my attention!

Now I have to find the spirit tokens I have in my collection. Fuck human tokens. No need to use Elspeth's second ability.

I'm considering replacing Gideon for a second copy of Elspeth.

Going to a LGS today. Might get four copies of Secluded Steppe if they have 'em. Plus some of the new set.

Someone needs to update tappedout so that new set cards are legal. Hate that damn asterisk!

Is four of the Steppe too much?

You're running 10x 4+ cmc spells, but only 21 lands. Do you find yourself short of mana often ? I've been tinkering with land amounts with alot, trying figure the lowest I can go without screwing myself and this seems really low.

I would personally drop 1 Elspeth Conquers Death and one Angelic Accord for 2x Castle Ardenvale. +1 though!

Naksu - I was running 23 lands, but had to cut the two staple return creature from graveyard lands. I'll go to a local game shop for two of those as you suggested. I'm still waiting on another Elspeth, so I'll check their dollar rares of newer sets.

Thanks!

Need more heals... wait, this is not Fortnite

Well I've certainly done enough tinkering with the deck this morning.

Em9500 says... #18

why isn't this running more of the new Heliod?

January 27, 2020 5:28 p.m.

HARDsofty says... #19

Just pulled one of the new Heliod from a Bundle. He's too expensive to buy ATM.

Heliod was hard to come by, so I got a Bundle and cracked one!

This deck needs quite a few creatures to function well.

A lot of your Enchantments in particular, but also your non-creature spells, need creatures to get any value from them.

I believe you have nowhere near enough Creatures in here to make this deck work.

Creature heavy decks are excellent in the current meta against aggro and control.

Selfless Spirit and Thraben Inspector might be two handy additions.

Gisela, the Broken Blade is also VERY good. Once you cast her, aggro decks don't stand a chance. She's an early Angel too, so fits your theme. StuBi used her to great effect in his midrange deck.

Finally, Always Watching might be a good addition.

Argy - I just woke up to find you posting some good suggestions on my deck page. I'll have to look into those. I haven't played Magic in quite some time, let alone the new format, so all advice from you is much appreciated. Thanks bunches!
