I went 4-0 with this deck on Friday and I've since made a couple of changes to become this.

+1 Angel of Serenity

+1 Sigarda

-1 Azorius Charm

-1 Entreat the Angels

This deck is basically a UW Control deck splashing for a few cards.

Thragtusk is such a beating against a lot of decks in the format. It comes down, gains you life, and blocks two things. Late game you can just use Feeling of Dread to tap down their blocker and hit them for 5 a couple of times. It's such a versatile card and I think any deck that isn't aiming for a turn 5 kill should be playing 4 Thragtusk.

Each win condition (that isn't Thragtusk) has its own benefits and flaws that make them all good and make me want them all in my deck.

Entreat the Angels is super powerful and probably will win the game when you untap with it, but is the most vulnerable.

Sigarda is really hard to kill, but slow and doesn't impact the board. At 5, it also does a halfway decent Thragtusk impression to come down and block something.

Angel of Serenity impacts the board incredibly and gives you insane amounts of card advantage, but still just dies to a Dread Bore. It's also 2 more mana than Sigarda.

Any thoughts are welcome.
