Hmm I don't even know where to start. Overall I understand that you obviously love to play angels. Right now I think it's not even close being playable. Most sample hands feel way to clunky and the mana curve looks horrible. I know the deck has 75 cards right now, but most of them are at a high mana cost anyways.
So you should reduce the amount of angels significantly to keep your curve low.
Choose those you really like to play and treat them just as late game finisher. I think something like 1 Avacyn, 2 baneslayer and 2 archangel of thune should be enough to close out a game. The rest of your deck should just buy the time you need to cast them. Some of your mentioned cards are already great to do so. I guess Silence is a great choice, also wrath of god and dawn charm are pefect. You can also use path to exile and banishing light as removal in addition to oblivion stone. Wall of omens would also be fine. They are cheap, block aggro creatures and give you extra cards.
To protect your angels, try mask of avacyn, it fits the theme nicely.

If you like to keep this casual only, the format does not really matter, so you can keep those mana ramp artifacts.
If your goal is to attend FNM someday, i think you should stick to modern legal cards. Also because they may be of some use for some other modern decks somewhere in the future.

You can take a look at my profile, I have an angel themed deck there as well, if you are interested.

Thats all for now, happy brewing!

Hi! I once started my faeries list similar to this one. Glad to see you starting faeries as well!
I would recommend to lean towards faerie rogues as much as possible. Therefor you should play oonas prowler, metropolis sprite, pestermite and notorious throng as your main win option.
There are some more faerie rogues printed if you need more.

Glen elendra is a great magic card but 4cc is a bit to high to play 4 of, instead i highly recommend playing 4 spellstutter sprite!
Also to make your deck more reactive, try to fit in some more counterspells like mana like and kill spells like go for the throat.

I'll clone your list and post my choices in a few minutes here.

As time goes by, try to pick up 2 more bitterblossom since this card makes your build significant better.
Some day i hope to see you playing modern faeries, which you can find on my profile as well.

Good luck
+1

Grafdigger,s may be useless 90% and also a bad topdeck. Move it to your sideboard. Im sure you'll find better hate bears for this slot.

True, Paradox Engine fills that role, but i think it might be a little too slow. You are also right on basic lands, but mana is tight here and swamps can not be fetched with Windswept Heath. I guess Forests are key here, you can chord or company for any non green creature and we have Rec Sage to deal with Blood Moon.
I could see cutting one Blooming Marsh for a swamp or plains.
Thanks for your suggestions!

Why would you play cartouche over umbras with totem armor?

btw you are correct on the Verdant catacombs. I guess its for budget reasons. This single swamp could be Overgrown Tomb instead, which can be fetched with Windswept Heath.

Very well tuned list! For the eldrazi and tron matchup you have mentioned, you could try to sideboard ghost quarters instead of rain of tears. It can disable tron as fast as turn one combined with surgical extraction. Works well for me, althought i hate playing against op eldrazi overall.
See you around!

Thanks! Happy to see you having as much love for faeries as i do. It really is an very versatile and fun deck to play. I love it for being able to compete with any kind of strategy while also flexible on how to build.
I now go check your list! Cheers buddy!

The deck is kind of nice. But i cant stand the name at all.
Therefore no like yet. This is magic, not porn kid!

Haha an control deck winning in the end is nothing unusual! You think he only has one life left, easy to deal that one damage, but you dont realise that you already have lost 2 turn ago xD
Your only chance is being faster!
The problem you have described could either be missing card draw, or ,what my guess would be, indicates that your deck is not built properly yet.
Keep on tweaking, give it time and test a lot, find your key cards and get rid of redundant cards.
Good luck, have fun and draw well!

Hi! Welcome to the magic community!
This is a nice collection of spells you have posted here, do you actually own them yet?
As deckbuilding concerns, i would recommend not cutting any key cards that make your deck work.
Therefore i would play all 4 Ajani's Pridemage and 4 Souls Attendant.
Also lifegain alone can't win you games, make sure you have enough removal to make the way clear for your creatures.
You could play more Path to exile and/or Bannishing Light. Also Pacifism is a nice choice to start with.
Original soul sisters in modern is kind of a combo deck with Squadron Hawk and Martyr of Sands to get Serra Ascendent aktiv as fast as possible.
I actually play some sort of soul sisters deck myself. Take a look if you like to.

You are correct in all terms. It all comes down to personal preference. Often it feels like all spells are being that efficient, so that there arn't enough spells in the graveyard to delve for tasigur. Especially with snapcaster. I like him more in grixis shells with thoughtscour.
Good choice on ceremonious rejection, if there is that much colorless in your meta.

Good point, im also not on the AV faeries side. +1 on your deck! Great list although i prefere snapcaster over tasigur and thoughtseize over collected brutality. Take a look if you like to:

It's a nice collection of hate cards. Try to add the new chandra or gideon as additional threats.
I wonder why ghostly prison is not included??
