Blue/White Angel - Standard
Deck Help forum
Posted on Feb. 24, 2013, 1:41 a.m. by Raivyn
Morning,
I'm trying to organize a deck that utilizes a Blue/White combination with an angel theme. Unfortunately I've been a little out of touch with the Standard format and the new cards which have been released...
In short, I'm looking for suggestions on what to build...
Thanks!

You also forgot Restoration Angel as a standard power creature for blue/white stuff, especially since you also mentioned Snapcaster Mage .
I love Emancipation Angel personally, and it works well for recycling Detention Sphere to grab new threats or more stuff they've played, or to kill a planeswalker if they played another after you sphere'd it.
Consider Silverblade Paladin to provide some more boost to your angels when you get them out. A Cathedral Sanctifier is a cheap way to give you more life while you're waiting for your angels to start kicking in, and to put up a meager defense for early on, and Fiend Hunter for the same.

Angel of Jubilation also for a little more kick. keep 4 of her in almost every white deck i build.

the only standard UW angel i think is Bruna, Light of Alabaster , bot that won;t work at all. Otherwise, I can see a control type deck with some big top end angels. There's not much standard can do against Angel of Serenity s and Avacyn, Angel of Hope s. run Entreat the Angels and some control, like Detention Sphere , Think Twice , Azorius Charm , Supreme Verdict , and Snapcaster Mage plus counters.
