The holiest deck you'll ever find. Low mana clerics, priests, and artifacts get the deck moving while you gather enough mana to bring out the central mechanic: angels, angels, angels. Black or White, angels deal the damage. The Sigardian Priest makes it easier to deal with walls or reach, Banisher Priest takes care of any pesky big guys (Especially tokens, which they kill outright), and the High Priest of Penance is just something that people won't block out of fear. Angelic Wall is a flying wall, not much to say.

A lot of the smaller creatures are also there as food for the Fallen Angel, which gets ridiculously powerful, especially if brought back from the grave. Our other black Angel is the Deathpact Angel, a fantastic creature loop if I've ever seen one.

Holy Day and the Riot Control are there to make sure that the Angels or cleric tokens survive large onslaughts, or to negate trample long enough to deal with the offending creature, and in the case of Riot Control, gain some more life.

Artifacts: The Scroll of Avacyn is 2 mana for 5 life and a draw, and the Bladed Bracers allow for even more powerful and vigilant angels, or cheap buffs on the one or two mana priests and clerics.

Enchantments: Angelic Accord synthesizes with the Battlegrace Angel, which at minimum allows for 5 life gain a turn swinging alone. Pacifism is Pacifism, which is always good for dealing with swing-happy decks or various other circumstances.

Chaplain's Blessing and Archangel's Light are great life gain, but the latter is especially useful in late game. When playing games like I do, where 3 or 4 players are involved and the game can go for an hour, Archangel's Light is a true trump card.

The Seraph of the Sword is a fantastic blocker, and it's also a cheap angel at 4 mana. The Resolute Archangel is for late-game life gain, and it can turn a bad game into a win in the blink of an eye.

Finally, Defy Death is too good to pass up, with most angels already being power 4 or greater. Especially useful with the Resolute Archangel, whose ability activates when they enter the field.
