Wew boy! Adeline, Resplendent Cathar is definitely strong. Hero of Bladehold puts in WORK. Overall, I'm very impressed with the deck.
The game's other generals were Aesi, Tyrant of Gyre Strait, Nahiri, the Lithomancer, and Otrimi, the Ever-Playful. I managed to play Adeline turn two, and immediately commanded a presence. I pulled out to an early lead which I held for most of the game. However, I had Adeline removed by the Nahiri player via Banishing Light, which exposed one of the weaknesses of the deck to me - I have little-to-no artifact or enchantment removal! If I was able to use Adeline after turn 5, I could've easily grew my advantage and won the game. However, I ended up being taken out first due to the other players ganging up on me. As well, I think I want to take the deck in a more focused direction - thinking I want to focus more on cheap anthem effects like Honor of the Pure.
Overall, I was able to see the deck's strengths and weaknesses thanks to this game. Should be fun!
