Hello. I would like some help in putting together a Mono-White Angel deck for Modern. I have the basic idea but i desperately need feedback before I shell out the cash to get the pieces I don't have. Please and thank you!
deck is here: deck:winged-troops.

Well I would like to make it competitive, but I would only be using it for casual play until such a time that an event makes it here to my town.

It seems a bit slow, especially if you're looking to do competitive play. Relying on high-cost creatures means you're vulnerable to tempo and control decks. Aggro will probably kill you before you get much online.
If it's just casual, you could try a GW Angel ramp deck. Using ramp with Emeria Angel could stabilize your board and give you some field presence while you build up to larger creatures. Baneslayer Angel is a nice beater.

Modern is a really tough format. A lot of decks that fit into it and are even quite playable in casual (say G/W Ramp w/ Angels,) are just not viable for tournament play in Modern. It's a really fun format if you can build a deck to compete, though.

Are you planning on using this deck in events or do you just want to play casually?
