Hey guys I was playing green white angels but then I thought why not Naya and then i realized there’s not a big amount of red angels. Then I thought why not play all the good Naya planeswalkers. And play the good white green red angels. Not only do all the walkers make dudes or are dudes(Gideon’s) and then angels. All the elspeths, Nissan’s not including the original. All the garruks, gideons, most ajani’s ect Few ramp spells and all the good angels.
Sorry so vaugue just a thought I played most of the walkers in standard at the time they were powerful in there own relm.
And the commander would be the guy that gives my attacking creatures 2/0
It was a thought because I have a lot of the walkers from my years in standard and they were good in the slower format of standard. But I thought Gideon would be okay it’s a constant beater. Yeah path swords gets rid of it. Lots of things do I just figured with a few enchantment pump spells, glorious anthem, glory of warfare there’s a green anthem too. That all the tokens the various walkers spit out would be formidable until I lay a fat angel down.

Also the ajani’s can put tokens on a mana dork or a token another walker puts into play or just an angel. Again just a thought I wanted a format to play a lot of my walkers a had and Naya is the color. I didn’t play a lot of black and blue back then so again Naya is the colors

It is not that standard is slower by any means. Standard has less options for absurdly powerful cards. You have (almost) all of the best cards ever printed as options in commander compared to only the most recent sets cards in standard. Standard usually has little bearing on what will be good in commander.
In my experience a gideon might get to swing once and then someone will just attack it or redirect damage to it... or just chump block all day. There are so many ways to get rid of gideon, and most decks have ample amounts of those ways.

I just figured that they're indestructible so only removal from game will do it. Stuff like terminate and push won't kill them and I have plenty of enchantment power/toughness buffs. So I figured between that and a few planes walkers that also boost power/toughness that it would make all the 1/1 and 2/2 tokens untill I drop an angel or titan ECT just general idea.

I personally don't think most of the gideons are worth it in edh. In my opinion they are about the same as an indestructible vanilla creature that your opponents choose when you have to sacrifice it. You will have good enough beaters with your angels.
One card that you will for sure want in there is doubling season because your walkers enter the battlefield with double the counters on them.
