Deck Description

This inspriation for this deck was entirely Angel of Glorys Rise. Bought two boosters, got two of them. It was a sign.

Originally a blue / white it was enough to annoy people, but not enough to win. I decided to shift focus slightly away from the blue control and annoyance, and more to the white damage. (Mostly because I kept drawing all white creatures and all blue land, or vice versa)

When playing the old version I found my most damaging combination was Champion of the Parish combined with... anything, nearheath kept me alive, silverblade killed stuff.

Unmake was thrown in to deal with indestructibles, The plan this to be a combination of over=running them with tokens humans / soldiers, copies of dead stuff, and massively buffing my own creatures. Holding on to Angel of Hope until an emergency situation comes up.

How to Play

Deck relies on human synergy and boosting the heck out of them. Commanders Authority and Seance are both there to boost the number of humans entering the battlefield.

Combine that with neartheath pilgrim who gets more powerful every time a human enters, Cathar's Crusade which makes everything better when another human enters, or Goldnight who will do the same job temporarily and you have a recipe for a very quick damage ramp.

Angel of Glorys Rise is there as a failsafe if you get stuck against a burn deck who doesn't let you keep a creature for more than a turn. (somebody in my meta has this) reach turn 7, play angel of glorys rise, suddenly you have back all the creatures you lost previously. If you had Cathar's Crusade out each of those creatures would get the +1 for each other creature that entered at the same time, likewise nearheath would get his +1s also which could potentially give you a 12/12 nearheath off the bat from the resurrection. Gavony of course is there if you're up against a theme deck (zombies, hydra, goblins, elves)

This is a recent edit, formerly this deck was white / blue but it never felt quite right. This format seems much more... synergistic.
