Hi ya'll.
I finally got this deck built, only one teenie problem i see is that in order to get my high cost mana Angels i'll need a way to get more mana at alot faster pace. I put in Sisay's Ring and a Sol Ring but that's not good enough. I removed Iridescent Angel for a Temporal Trespass and taking out something else for another extra turn card Part the Waterveil but still, i don't see many cards i could use on my turn anyways thats in my deck to make that matter (Sorceries mainly). This deck has potential but after i played it against another person, it kinda was a flop in some ways. Any help would be much obliged.
U/W Angel and Humans - Azorius (here's the deck link, sorry everyone)
Suggestions welcomed as well. Thanks everyone, d&g85
The problem with UW is there are very few land ramp spells. You have fetch lands that will help fix your mana but outside of that you're looking at Land Tax, Gift of Estates, Tithe and Oreskos Explorer.

Weathered Wayfarer is pretty solid. Also the other cards that DrFunk mentioned. I also am not generally so fond of the runes of protection, so perhaps drop one or two, or maybe sideboard them, depending on the decks you're against. Could replace them with some ramp or rocks.
You should also run Cyclonic Rift. I have yet to play a blue deck I regretted running it. It's just so useful.
I'll come back with some more feedback soon

DrFunk27 and PhoenixWright, thank you for your card suggestions. Unfortunately... I don't have any of the cards you guys listed but will try to obtain them soon. I'm going to a Standard League Tournament tomorrow, I will see if anyone has any of the cards you guys listed. I really want to keep my Runes in though for now. They became useful for me in a battle against a friend of mine. Also, my Magic Mentor told me that they can be useful in two ways. 1. For Protection of course ;), lol, and 2. For it's Cycling ability. I can use all five in a battle and cast the ones against the colors my opponent(s) use then Cycle the other(s) which will trigger my Sphinx's Tutelage as well. I don't know what your thoughts on that would be but I also may gain a land when I draw using the Cycling ability. I will replace some of my cards with ones that I have that others have mentioned on my deck page as well as my wall. The ones I have I will put in, the others I'll have to find.
Thanks, d&g85

Grand Arbiter Augustin IV can act as both ramp and hate. Solemn Simulacrum, Burnished Hart, Gilded Lotus, Basalt Monolith, Sapphire Medallion, Pearl Medallion and Mana Vault can all help you ramp. While not specifically ramp, Mystic Remora and Rhystic Study are both super cheap draw engines in EDH.
