HELLO. IT'S TIME FOR ANOTHER TRIBAL(????) DECK.
Hello my babies! After strenuous testing, I wanted to come back here and give you what seems to be the most competitive (mono-white) angel tribal deck that I could muster. Now, in testing this archetype, I have come to the determinatiin that Angels usually need more than just themselves to be competitive. The strongest iterations of this deck type seem to usually splash a supportive color, such as green for access to collected company. So what about those of us that wish to stay mono-white? Two words.....LIFE. GAIN.
Therefore, I'm presenting a mono-white angel deck that utilizes powerful life-gain based utility! This not only grants the us innate survivability, but also propels our aggro strategy with insane combos and field based interactions. That all being said, let's get into the deck tech!
Creatures
Soul's Attendant: We run her for additional utility. Helps in grindier match ups, and helps to proc some of our life based effects/boosts.
Martyr of Sands: Absolutely NUTS. Accelerates our win conditions, and keeps us alive in closer matchups. She's literally SO free. Running 4 is a must IMO.
Speaker of Heavens: With this and Martyr in our opening hand, we can begin generating tokens by turn 2.
Serra Ascendant: Martyr can make this a 6/6 flying lifelinker on turn 2. If he isn't answered, he can literally win games on his own.
Bishop of Wings: The biggest reason to play Angels. A solid life gain engine, and can provide us some value from our fallen angels. Running 4 is another must.
Giada, Font of Hope: New Capenna brought angels much needed spice. She ramps us into our larger angels, and provides our angels with increased power. She is essentially a two mana lord. I run 3, because 4 felt too redundant. You don't mind drawing into more than one, but you don't prefer it either.
Righteous Valkyrie: Provides us with an insane lord effect, and acts as a back up life gain engine. Can get out of control with multiple copies out at the same time. Plus she thicc (big booty, resistant to removal).
Resplendent Angel: Oh me oh my! A win condition on its own. If we have any of our life gain engines out when this hits the field, it is essentially game over for our opponents.
Shalai, Voice of Plenty: She offers ourselves and our creatures innate protection. Fine as a one of. A solid piece of tech.
Lyra Dawnringer: Five mana can be a tough ask at times...good thing we usually win/stabilize before turn 5 (lol). She's bonkers when we get to play her, and can even stand on her own if need be.
Instants
Path to Exile: Duh. The only spot removal we need.
Lands
Self explanatory.
There you have it! Mono-white angels...Kind of??
