Although Archangel Avacyn   may seem like an unlikely contender for having her own Commander deck, her flip-side, Avacyn, the Purifier, can do some serious damage with the cards available in red and white. Since your primary goal is to get your creatures to die while Avacyn's out, you want to focus on plenty of good ETB effects, especially for a few cards that allow for blinking or reviving (like Conjurer's Closet or Karmic Guide). And instead of relying too heavily on sac outlets for getting Avacyn to flip, a few evoke elementals can easily get that job done. The blink/revival stuff can not only protect Avacyn, but will help in getting her to flip back to her indestructible side as to repeat the whole "sac > flip" process.

Even if you make a different variation of this deck, arguably the most vital card to include would be Repercussion to use with Avacyn, the Purifier. Very strong card that can be used in your favor with the various white damage protection enchantments (Light of Sanction + Mark of Asylum ). AEther Flash is an especially versatile card in this deck, as it:

1. Locks down any combo decks that try to produce weak tokens, or just keeps some players from putting out low toughness creatures.

2. Can potentially kill your own creatures, as to get Avacyn to flip.

3. Will hurt your opponents when Repercussion is out, and will not hurt you when your white enchantments are also out.

I have a bit more to describe about the deck, but for now I'll leave it be. I'm sure there are some questionable choices in here, so any questions and/or feedback would be appreciated.
