Midrange deck, uses exalted, dega colours. Last gasp of the old Standard. Mostly for FNM/fun.

Game-winning angels, with several ways to give them double strike. Exalted and Essence Harvest work amazingly well together. Boros Charm gives double-strike to beefed Exalted attackers, or gives indestructibility as a combat trick. Legion's Initiative protects against sweepers, buffs creatures, and can get you three attacks in a turn with Aurelia, if you're lucky. Assemble the Legion works amazingly well with Sublime Archangel, and is incredibly useful against any slower deck; not shabby if your Duty-Bound Deads stall a faster deck, too. Dreadbore is simple utility removal. Might change it to Doom Blade or Warleader's Helix. Land suite is pretty self-explanatory. Can't decide if it should be two Plains or a Plains and a Vault of the Archangel.

Sideboard plan: Falkenrath Aristocrat replaces Legion's Initiative and a Boros Charm against aggro decks. The indestructible body slows them right down and once they are stalled the flyers can usually take over the game. Olivia comes in against midrange decks. She beats, she's removal, she's mind-control, she flies, she turns you into a nine-year-old Hundu boy... Well, no she doesn't. But she does amazing work. Anybody who's seen a Jund or Dega midrange deck should know how she works. Wear//Tear comes in against artifacts and enchantments. Surprise surprise. Pithing Needle stops Planeswalkers and Aetherling. Sorin comes in against control and makes a never-ending stream of vampires.

Other considerations: Obzedat's Aid? Five mana to get an Aurelia, a Sorin, or an Assemble the Legion from the graveyard seems like a good idea. Zealous Conscripts?M13/M14 Ajani?Obzedat?Blood Baron of Vizkopa?
