So what's the single, strongest, standalone effect you can find on a modern legal card?

I have to answer Platinum Angel. Can't lose? Can't lose!

Now let's protect that baby and make sure we get her on the table as quickly as possible.

Here's how I built around her.

Game Plan

Platinum Angel is not exactly easy to cast, so we're gonna have to cheat her in. That's why we use Master Transmuter. Not only does she trick fat artifacts (like Darksteel Forge) onto the battlefield way too early, she also grants protection to an artifact that's being targeted.

Thanks for reading!

I appreciate any thoughts, ideas, substitutions and so on.

Please keep in mind that this deck wants to be defensive in nature, I'm not adding more predators like Wurmcoil Engine.
