This is the best Angel Tribal deck I could make, and it did me surprisingly good! The aim is to overwhelm with either lots of angels or a few very powerful angels.

Life gain triggers are everywhere, to churn out angel tokens using Resplendent Angel and pump your creatures very high very fast with Archangel of Thune. Segovian Angel's value is mostly in the angel triggers it causes, and Lyra Dawnbringer is there too because shes too cool to leave out. Resplendent Angel is the most important card in this deck, so always try to ensure you will get value from it before casting it.

Cloudshift is there for saving creatures and setting off triggers when needed, and I use that instead of Ephemerate or Gods Willing just because flavour.

Angelic Ascension is the only mainboard removal, but you may want to use it aggressively instead targeting your own Segovian Angel of 1/1 spirits generated by Bishop of Wings to create a 4/4 angel for 2 mana.

Every once in a while, you will get something similar to this beautiful start:

• T1: Plains + Scroll of Avacyn
• T2: Plains + Bishop of Wings
• T3: Seraph Sanctuary, Resplendent Angel
• T4: play a 2nd Bishop or Resplendent Angel, activate Scroll of Avacyn during opponent's turn
• End of T4: You have lots of life and lots of angels

Let me know what you think and how it could be better! It's pretty susceptible to decks with lots of counterspells but otherwise It's been pretty solid so far.
