25 upvotes?! New update coming soon, too. —Feb. 24, 2022

The deck has hit 25 upvotes! Wow! Thanks, guys!

A small update is coming soon. Pulled a borderless Eiganjo, Seat of the Empire from my NEO booster box, so that's gonna get added in along with some other lands and potentially Test of Endurance.

Looks like an awesome deck! I really liked when Serra showed up in MH and have been trying to make her fit into things ever since. If nothing else, it's a lower cost serra angel, and that's not so bad :)

My only idea for this deck is that it might help to have more defensive creatures to keep Serra on the board. Angels with vigilance and flying can be really great in EDH because a lot of the time there is no downside to just swinging away. So, I don't know, there are a bunch of cool vigilance angels out there, maybe some of them might work with your deck. And you can always run Concerted Effort to really use those keywords to their fullest. Concerted Effort and Pristine Angel play very nice together if you can get the combo. Getting pro everything on your creatures and hopefully getting vigilance on pristine angel is a doosey. Effort can also be great with Enduring Angel  Flip who gives you hexproof, and that can be randomly good sometimes.

Karn's Bastion works well with your commander and Archangel of Thune It's not the most efficient proliferate effect, but sometimes you just have extra mana laying around.

I don't know, just some random thoughts :) It's early and my brain is a bit foggy, but hope it's a few ideas. I really love my mono-white edh deck because it makes you really stretch and figure out how to solve problems. People give white edh decks a bad rap, but I think they have a lot of potential.

Karn's Bastion is a pretty good idea. This deck is pretty mana intensive, though, so I'm not sure what I'd cut for it. Isolated Watchtower? Was debating cutting Storm Herd or Celestial Mantle, too.

Enduring Angel  Flipis interesting, but seems really niche. The fact that she can only flip if you hit 0 life makes me sad. Cool card, probably not for this deck, though. Pristine Angel seems great but as I learned with my Rebbec/Glacian deck and my Multani, Maro-Sorcerer deck, protection like effects can also have the drawback of not being able to target your own stuff.

Concerted Effort seems insane for Akroma decks. I don't really think it'd be worth a spot here just to mainly add vigilance. There are only a handful of creatures that add other keywords that would make it worth it. It's a good recommendation and I added it to the maybeboard for anyone else interested, though!

May I suggest: Blighted Steppe, Hall of Heliod's Generosity, Emeria, The Sky Ruin. As I see you also like to play with token armies so maybe Martial Coup (as a mass removal also) or Secure the Wastes. Can anyone answer me why this deck has a ridiculous high percent in competitiveness? It's the highest I've ever witnessed here on tappedout, but it seems to be odd ...

^ I have no idea why the competitive meter is so high. I never really pay much attention to it.

Those three lands are all pretty great. I always forget about Emeria. Need to order one of those the next time I tweak the deck. I'd personally pass on the token generator cards, but I'll add them to the maybeboard in case anyone else would be interested in them!
