Angel tribal with Giada, Font of Hope!

Piloting is pretty straight forward, play Giada turn two and pump out bigger angels. There's some life-gain synergies to keep draw and angel token engines running and an Aetherflux Reservoir for a backup win condition. Reanimation effects like Bruna, the Fading Light   and Indestructible effects like Avacyn, Angel of Hope help make sure the board state sticks around. I also threw in The Book of Exalted Deeds + Mutavault / Faceless Haven combo just for fun.

Any suggestions for improvement are welcome! I'm stoked just to finally have an angel commander that is this solid! My prayers have finally been answered since the commander format was born!
