Creatures you control of the chosen colour have +1/+1.

Whenever a land's ability gains you one or more mana of the chosen colour, gain one additional mana of that colour.

I love seeing mono-color decks! Thank you for your Angel-tribal deck, I had one of my own a few years back but it never really went off as well as I'd wanted. Hopefully, yours can do better!

Here are some cards I'd recommend:

Angel's Grace // Platinum Angel --- These cards are good for survivability, so your opponents don't sneak a win!

Speaker of the Heavens // Bishop of Wings --- I love both of these cards. While they aren't Angels themselves, they're best-friends with them!

Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx // Herald of War // Pearl Medallion // Nyx Lotus // Caged Sun --- These guys all have a way of making your cards easier to cast, and let's face it, Angels cost a lot of mana!

Angel of Jubilation --- Badass

Angelic Skirmisher --- Badass

Archangel of Tithes --- Also, Badass

Test of Endurance // Felidar Sovereign // Approach of the Second Sun // Darksteel Reactor --- These are all ways to win the game without bringing your opponents' HP to 0!

I hope I was able to help in some way!

Thanks! :)) Thats really good suggestion since i was looking for even more ways to spend that infinite mana. I think ill cut Caged Sun in favour of the Goblin Cannon you suggested.

(in most games, by the time i got to play caged sun i didnt really need it anymore)

When playing so many mountains i would suggest Caged Sun (although i see many land destruction spells) Also i dont know your playgroup, but i would think twice about playing Winter Orb. If this isnt meant to be a cEDH deck i would suggest removing it in favour of anything else haha. Ive also got a deck not much different from this one so hmu if you would like to talk about it.

enpc I actually traded Caged Sun out for Vedalken Orrery. I realized that 6 is too much for a mana ability unless your commander somehow exploits that and with this I can save my equipment for the end step of my opponent's turn, then cast them, or I can cast my commander at that point and not have to worry about summoning sickness

Monomanamaniac: all good. I hate when you get a card which is ok, but has amazing artwork, so I get the inclusing of Ogre's Cleaver.

If you can get it, I think that Land Tax will definitely do more for the deck than Caged Sun will. I also think that if you're looking at potential swap outs, Pearl Medallion ironically enough feels like one of the easier cuts. I get that it helps drop the cost of white spells down, however chances are you're not playing more than one white spell a turn or the second spell will be something like Swords to Plowshares in which case a mana rock is just better anyway. The joys of mono coloured voltron decks :P

enpc I can see that, I like the Caged Sun the turn before I cast Balan so that I can keep the most threatening equipment in hand until I play her. It's still a high costed card though. Maybe I'll get rid of it for O-Naginata lol. I have a foil O-Naginata that I've been contemplating using because double strike and trample are amazing. I like Ogre's Cleaver mainly for the looks of it, but it has kept it's place because it gets gets Balan to within 3 points of being lethal. Lastly the cleaver was designed to cost 7 to play and equip, but Balan circumvents that.

Thank you for your suggestions I'll definitely consider shifting some cards around to fit the naginata

I would probably ditch the Caged Sun. I get that it's a mana doubler, but it's also six mana itself and I don't think it adds enough value.

I would also recommend a copy of O-Naginata over Ogre's Cleaver. I get that cleaver gives a bigger damage buff, but neither of them allow you to one shot a player by themselves. however O-Naginata gives trample which helps connect through better.

Howdy there! You might like some of these lands (and ramp)

• Morphic Pool
• Darkwater Catacombs
• Polluted Delta (Budget Version: Bad River)
• Underground River
• Darkslick Shores
• Sunken Ruins (Cheap right now with double masters!)
• Drowned Catacomb
• Choked Estuary
• Temple of Deceit

• Basic island and swamps can be cut for Snow-Covered Islands and Snow-Covered Swamps. They count as basics and produce the same colors, but if your opponent is playing a snow deck it can be helpful. There isn't too huge of a chance for that but since its exactly the same for you either way its better to have that option always available.

• Ancient Tomb

• City of Brass
• Prismatic Vista
• Fabled Passage
• Wasteland or Strip Mine
• Forbidden Orchard
• Exotic Orchard
• Gemstone Mine
• Reflecting Pool
• Gemstone Caverns

• You gotta run Command Tower without a doubt

• Your average mana cost is kind of high so I would consider some of these: Sapphire Medallion, Jet Medallion, Lotus Petal, Dimir Signet, Talisman of Dominance, Fellwar Stone, Coalition Relic, Extraplanar Lens, Gilded Lotus, Dark Ritual, etc are nice for ramp. Maybe a Caged Sun or Gauntlet of Power too.

• If you have the budget, Mana Crypt is very good as well.

In the end, I would definitely consider all of these lands as they are very helpful and can help your journey go much much MUCH smoother, especially in commander! If this helps, be sure to check out some of my decks, (Double Trouble EDH) among others! Upvote them if you like them and be sure to give me suggestions if you have any, I would appreciate it. Anyways though, hope this helps, good luck on your deck, and have a great day! Happy tapping!
