Good mono white combos
Commander Deck Help forum

Ive been working on a mono white angels deck for a while and its been getting much better but i don't have any combos that can really flip the table or make an emeidiat threat. Can any one help recommend some good cards to fix that?

Mono white is one of the worse colors for infinite type combos. Archangel of Thune is a piece in lots of combos, but you need support around it. Mono white just isn't where you'll find a whole lot.

Spawnicias99 it kind-of depends on what your deck wants to do otherwise, but there are some solid infinite combos in that use mostly good stuff cards and sacrifice outlets.
Sun Titan with Fiend Hunter / Angelic Renewal / Gift of Immortality creates an infinite sacrifice loop. You can generate infinite mana with Phyrexian Altar or Ashnod's Altar, infinite mill with Altar of Dementia, and infinite damage with Blasting Station. You could also use Martyr's Cause or Fanatical Devotion for damage prevention or regeneration.
A similar and perhaps better combo involves Karmic Guide and Reveillark. Sacrifice Karmic Guide, sacrifice Reveillark and use its LTB to return Karmic Guide, use Guide's ETB to return Reveillark. You also get a free creature back with Reveillark each time, so you can loop something like Duplicant ad nauseam.
Also note that Fiend Hunter makes a sac loop with Sun Titan, Karmic Guide, Reveillark, and Angel of Glory's Rise. Just use Fiend Hunter to exile your own creature, then sacrifice Fiend Hunter and use the creature's ETB to bring him back, repeating the loop. With Reveillark you have to sacrifice Fiend Hunter in response to the LTB on the stack.
There's also a combo with Cathars' Crusade and any creature with Persist, though Twilight Shepherd is the best in mono . Since +/+ and -/- counters cancel out, your creature returns with Persist and gains a counter to reset, making it essentially indestructible, pumping up your board, and salvaging your guys.
If you're interested in powerful interactions that are not infinite combos, I have some ideas for that too, but I don't feel like typing all that up without some idea of your decklist. Happy to help, so let me know if you have questions or want more ideas!

a few i run in my heliod deck that haven't already been mentioned
Emeria Shepherd + Solemn Simulacrum or Kor Cartographer and a sac outlet.
Heliod, God of the Sun + Skybind = instant speed Flickerwisp on demand. in your angels deck use value etb's like Sunblast Angel, Angel of Finality, Karmic Guide or even flickering lands to antao them and trigger the landfall on your Emeria Shepherd or Admonition Angel.For Admonition Angel you can wait until your trigger(s) is/are on the stack you flicker the angel herself to make the exile permanent. I love this combo and tutor it every game as its versatility lets you deal with permanents and strategies you wouldn't normally be able to interact with, and you get a horde of 2/1's as well.
i also run the Karmic Guide, Reveillark and sac outlet loop. if you get Altar of Dementia you can mill anybody. Though i never outright go for it because two of the pieces are creatures i can't tutor for, but each card is great on it own so it works.
if you want to have a look at my mono white deck ill link it here:
