Replacing Iona with Angel of Invention for now. Might play test with Sunblast Angel if AoI doesn't work out.

Hey ZombieCat! Might I suggest the freshly released Sephara, Sky's Blade in place of Iona instead? That's what I slotted in my own angel deck and it seems like an ideal fit for your overall theme in here.

Hey Forkbeard

Definitely want a Sephara for sure. Just gotta buy one, foil of course.

Still trying to find the 0 CMC mana rocks for a decent price.. that would be the last real tune up the deck needs.

Hi ZombieCat! Have you had considerations for Smothering Tithe ? I personally prefer it over Gilded Lotus . Either one as a lone source of ramp could possibly get a turn six Avacyn, but Smothering Tithe has the potential to get Avacyn out sooner. And if it doesn't, it slows down your opponents. Just a thought.

Not to mention you already have ways to tutor for it as well. :)

Hiya ejoelgregory,

I have considered Smothering Tithe and personally, I feel that it's too slow for this build and my meta. It's relying on your opponent's for mana (1 mana per turn unless they have a draw engine, per opponent that doesn't pay) and I'd rather have Gilded Lotus since I can access 3 mana immediately. If my meta becomes more draw intensive then yes, Smothering Tithe would be an auto include.

"I built my own version. And yes, he was pissed off."

Upvoted.

UPDATE:

FINALLY, AFTER ALL THESE YEARS, BOUGHT A The Tabernacle at Pendrell Vale. Deck is pretty much done except for new cards. More than willing to consider suggestions though!

ejoelgregory - Going to try out Smothering Tithes and keep Gilded Lotus in it's slot. See how well it performs.

What's the story on the alter of your Avacyn, Angel of Hope? She looks beautiful.

I found the alter of Avacyn after initially building the deck and found someone who made proxies to make it for me. It's Avacyn combined with the Full Art Wrath of God artwork. Original image (Or close to it):
