Hello, new user and MTG player presenting my first deck Azorius - Buff the Things. But it feels like it's lacking a real game ender. The goal with the deck is to keep my opponent on the back foot with Curse of Exhaustion and allow myself breathing room enough to drop either Archangel or Latch Seeker and buff them with Ethereal Armor , finishing the game in two or three turns following those drops. However, it still feels like the deck is missing a true game ending combo. I would like to remove Archangel for something, but I'm not sure what that would be.

I can see AEtherling and Lavinia of the Tenth (I really like that Conjurer's Closet/Lavinia combo a lot) working well in my deck. Geist of the Saint is a great card, not sure how well he'd work in this particular deck though. Definitely going to look for all four next time I'm at the card shop. Putting them into my acquire and maybe boards. Thanks for this :D

There are so many better options than Archangel. The easy one is Geist of Saint Traft - he's your begining, middle, and end. Geist-Honored Monk isn't terrible. Lavinia of the Tenth is fantastic if you have ways to flicker her; Lavinia with Conjurer's Closet whooped up on me last night pretty badly. Drogskol Reaver is an older favorite of standard WU decks. But right now the finisher dominating my meta is AEtherling and I fully endorse running him, as he is fantastic as either a wincon OR an alternate wincon. I run one in my Izzet - Izzet Progress - when my Cyclops combo fails me.
