Deck discussion for Red/White Angel EDH Gisela

gnarly deck! I love it! Super overpowered. I'd play with it as is, though that's not what this space if for; so here are my suggestions:

-In a two color deck, I think the Vivid lands and Chromatic Lantern are unnecessary, and nobody realistically plays with Plateau (and the others). I feel like the Boros Cluestone (for late game card draw) or Signet (for a 2 cost mana drop) would be better suited.
-Since this deck is very combat oriented and not so much control, I'd replace Sword of Light/Shadow with War/Peace. It also seems to fit the flavor more, in my opinion.
-Your enchantments are pretty solid, but why Gratuitous Violence AND Furnace of Rath? I've been burned by the Furnace before, I'd sub it out for some defense like Ghostly Prison, Norn's Annex, or Lightmine Field.
-I'm curious why you chose Ajani, CoP over Vengeant.
-Master Warcraft is pretty much a must-have for any Boros EDH.
-Lastly, I'd switch Planar Cleansing for Mass Calcify. It's CMC is 1 more, but you get to keep your Angels.

Happy casting!

You may find some inspiration by looking at my Tajic EDH deck "Crusade of Tajic-istan." It's much more Soldier oriented with Angels to supplement. But go have a gander.

Great deck, seems almost too large to be effective against a fast deck. I don't actually see a way around this besides trimming it or putting in cards to defend against fast decks like red burn decks. I would have to agree with the above comment about gratuitous violence and furnace of rath, unless you are using your sideboard angel. My only suggestion would be something along the lines of belbe's portal or cryptic gateway to pay for the higher cost angels. this could be used to replace some of the lands. Just a suggestion. Happy playing

Thnx all for your comments! i have only been playing magic for a few months now and i have created this deck mainly by just looking at similar angel decks and picking the cards i liked! some of your ideas were really nice and i have adjusted some of my picks. some things like planar cleansing i just really like cause it destroys artifacts and enchantments aswell and in my playgroup some friends really love to play those allot :P but i was able to make room for that mass calcify anyway! :D. thanks again if any others have any ideas id love to hear them!

cheers!
