I'll take Witch of the Moors and Vizkopa Guildmage, but what are they replacing?

DiscoPanda1803, please do not worry about the length of your response, as I appreciate the level of detail that you put into it, and I, also, dearly wanted to put Witch of the Moors into my own Liesa deck, but I could not find room, for her, unfortunately.

Thanks DemonDragonJ, they are my favorite as well, it's always great meet another angel enthusiast.

Regarding your considerations:

For Deathbringer Liege, he is in a very crowded slot, the five mana spot have a lot sweet angels, if you put him next to Baneslayer Angel, he is strickly a better creature, but again... ANGELS. Also still hurts me take Witch of the Moors out, if a could fit her back in, i probaly will. But is something to consider, the removal built in is very intresting.

As for Thought Vessel and Reliquary Tower, i din't feel the need for expand my hand size, never really bothered me. Aside from the moment that i put in Necropotence for a little while, than i needed those cards kkk, but i moved to another deck.

As for Greed, i whanted to put it, in a early version of the deck, but i alredy own Arguel's Blood Fast  ^Flip, so used insted, and it put a lot of work, that i decide to stick with it. When Black Market Connections realease, i make the change for that. I personaly believe that you can't have such think as "too much draw", so i don't know what i take it out for put Greed in, but i not shure if is that much better than Arguel's Blood Fast  ^Flip.

As for Debt to the Deathless, i don't think is that much efficient, the way i see it, you have to sink in a lot mana to make count, the only way my deck can make that much mana is with Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx, so i don't know if is a good idea dedicated a slot for that card, with a small chance to make a splash.

As for your question regarding Fellwar Stone it never was a problem to me, it fix my mana somethimes, but most of the times i alredy have the lands to do that, it is in there mostly because of the limited amount of mana rocks that exists for only 2 mana, but if i feel the need, Thought Vessel is a solid replacement, as you suggested.

Sorry for the long ass response. Again, i appreciate the love for the deck, feel free to give more suggestions, flavor choices are welcome too.

Thank you for the kind words girlfag! I had actually considered Veinwitch Coven in an early draft of this, but I must have forgotten about it! Witch of the Moors is a great shout too - more creature recursion can't hurt!

I'm glad I could help inspire! Link the deck you decide to make, always great to see fun theme

hellspawned: oh interesting, I like your list as well! I've been thinking I should add more recursion actually, cause I've got three pieces and they're always really good. A lot of the ones in your list don't work in this one because you focus on lands much more than I do, but I should at least pick up a Witch of the Moors, cause that one certainly does.

I do find that being low on creatures and as a result being picked to death doesn't really happen all that much, for a few reasons. The first of which is that I've got ~10 pieces of spot removal, and with baba's card draw I seem to always have answers when I need them. The second is that since my board isn't that threatening most of the time, I'm rarely the target, and since I theoretically gain a lot of life anyway, taking a few hits doesn't matter that much.

In terms of sac payoffs, I used to run Mazirek but after a month of having the deck I just noticed it was never how I was winning games and I didn't even get too many triggers, cause I'm trying to sac one creature per activation. Because of that I'm not running any of the aristocrats pieces, cause they'll basically drain for one or two a turn and that's not what I'm looking for.

Other things in your list that I think I should consider in mine are Meren and Journey to Eternity. And thank you very much for playtesting and commenting!

omg I so love this! I found a few more witches but I'd say the one to include could be Veinwitch Coven or Witch of the Moors, I think both are really helpful since they can recover lost creatures, plus they can synergize with food tokens witch (pun very clear and intended) could lead to a bit of a food/lifegain subtheme!

This has inspired me to make a deck around a theme, I'm not sure what commander or even what theme, but thank you! this is so fun!!
