Idoneity on Mark Rosewater Confirms that a …

In terms of the cycles of which they have completed half, I am relatively sure that the last ones are Amonkhet's cycling lands, Battle for Zendikar's buddy lands, and the horizon lands.

I suppose I wouldn't mind seeing the Mirage's slow-fetch cycle finished, but mostly out of curiosity than worth.

In this post, a user asked Mark Rosewater if any cycle of dual lands that are currently incomplete, most notably the battle lands/"tango lands" (i.e., Canopy Vista, Prairie Stream, Cinder Glade, and so forth) shall be completed, and Rosewater responded that it is more a matter of when those cycles shall be completed, rather than if they shall,, so I am very glad to hear that, as that is the dual land cycle that I most wish to see be completed, with the Horizon Canopy cycle at a close second and Nimbus Maze at third.

What does everyone else say about this? Are you glad to know that some cycles of dual lands that are currently incomplete shall eventually be completed?

wallisface, yes, those reasons do make sense, but I am still hoping for the Horizon Canopy and Canopy Vista cycles to be completed, at some point, because they are very useful and powerful lands.

WotC introduced a new cycle of dual lands, the "restless" lands in Wilds of Eldraine, and then finished that cycle in the next set, Lost Caverns of Ixalan, which was nice, as the players did not need to wait for very long for WotC to finish that cycle, but WotC finishing that cycle so quickly draws attention to the fact that they have left other cycles of dual lands incomplete, most notably the Horizon Canopy cycle and the "battle lands" cycle (i.e., Canopy Vista, Prairie Stream, and so forth), which I find to be very unfortunate, as I very much would like to see those cycles completed, at some point, and, as a side note, I very much would like to see Nimbus Maze be given a full cycle, as well.

What does everyone else say about this subject? Why did WotC finish the restless land cycle so quickly while leaving other cycles of dual lands unfinished?

Last_Laugh, the Shadowmoor/Eventide filter lands are superior to the Odessey filter lands in the majority of situations, so I doubt that WotC shall finish that cycle, but I do share your desire to see the Horizon Canopy cycle finished, since it now needs only four more cards to be complete, and I also would like to see Nimbus Maze have a full cycle, as well.

WOTC is rather capricious as to what land cycles they finish and when.

Typically, they finish land cycles in adjacent set releases, such as the checklands in Dominaria and Ixalan (see Isolated Chapel and Glacial Fortress. But they have also quixotically completed the showland cycle with Strixhaven in 2021 (see Furycalm Snarl), despite it first being introduced on a separate plane in 2016's Shadow's Over Innistrad (see Fortified Village). They do this a lot, starting with the allies then bargaining it over to the enemies:

1995 brought Underground River then 2001 had Shivan Reef, 2010 brought Darkslick Shores then 2016 had Spirebluff Canal. These are rather large gaps, ranging from months to years.

There are plenty of land cycles that haven't been finished or haven't even begun. The five ally-colored lands from Future Sight has partially been officiated, consisting of Horizon Canopy, Grove of the Burnwillows, Graven Cairns, Nimbus Maze, and River of Tears. All of these are rather unique; two have been finished. Kind of. Modern Horizons parlously gave Horizon Canopy an enemy family. The Graven Cairns cycle was completed in Eventide and Shadowmoor. The rest are lonesome.

There's still Amonkhet's cycling cycle to finish up, so who knows when the buddy lands will be tended to.

Dude! You have helped a ton! Thanks so much for all the feedback! I Made a few changes for now, and I'll try it out and see how it works. I'm gonna leave the black in my build for now Mostly because I don't have the new Sigarda, Font of Blessings yet, and I can't really afford to buy another playset Horizon Canopy right now. I didn't know about some of those green removal spells so that's good food for thought. I do have a couple other selesnya builds, the bogle deck, and a soul sister deck in Modern, so I'll keep those in mind for those as well. I like the look of Atraxa's Fall. I put the Anguished Unmaking back in because of the awesome angel art, and being a prime reason I went to black in the first place alongside Vindicate. I put the Giver of Runes back in, and two of my Aether Vials. I went back to 2 and 2 of the Thune/Lyra, I only have the 2 Thune, so that will have to do. I slipped the einganjo back in place of the 7th plains. I also stuck the Linvala, Keeper of Silence back into the Sideboard in place of the Go for the Throat I'll try and get some games in now!

darkmus! Awesome to meet another Angel Tribal Member! Angels are my favorite tribe in magic! You are just the person I need to talk to! I just checked your build out, and it looks good! +1! I had not seen the new Sigarda, Font of Blessings yet, I'll have to track her down and get some copies. Kinda of a Realmwalker effect going on there, I like it! I was kinda surprised you are running Green and No Collected Company tho? I guess you have 9 Angels that are 4 cmc tho, so maybe not great for your build. I Run this deck as Selesnya CoCo Angels on Arena and have pretty good luck with it, but my Paper Deck I switched to Orzhov for better removal. My bro plays a dragon deck with Stormbreath Dragons and they are kinda hard to get around with all white angels. Thus the black removal spells in the sideboard. Plus my Horizon Canopys are in my Bogle Deck, so, yeah I picked up some Silent Clearings and here we are. That, and I feel like the Godless Shrine goes well with the flavour of the deck. I do have two Archangel of Thune she is one of my Favorite Angels for sure, and I did have them in the deck for a while, I kinda go back and forth with the Ratio, Two Archangel and two Lyra Dawnbringer or 3 lyra and 1 Archangel. IDK. Maybe I'll throw them back in there based on your advise. Shadowspear is there for when I run into a bogle deck or something else that has indestructible like Heliod, Sun-Crowned or whatever. I had the Esper Sentinels in the deck as well as my two copies of Giver of Runes but right now I am testing out having the Soul Wardens and Speaker of the Heavens instead. I tried the Aether Vials along with a playset of Serra Avengers but wasn't too happy with how it played out. I don't have the Cavern of Souls but those would probably be nice. I do like having the Soul Partitions tho, it's pretty decent removal in my opinion, and so is the Lay Down Arms but you have to keep your plains count up to make it consistent. Legions to Ashes I was using to help against my brother's Squirrel deck, but I've also been using Temporary Lockdown in my arena build with some pretty decent success. I actually just saved my own ass with it this morning against a merfolk deck for the W!
Do you play in Modern tournaments with your build? I never really see anyone playing angels outside of Historic on Arena.
Thanks for the advice, the upvote and for sharing your deck! Much Appreciated!
