My girlfriend wants to play MTG and she only wants to make an 'all angel' deck. We decided that animator will suit her best since it'll be just for casual play.

You've got 8x Buried Alive, lulz. Other than that... Hymn to Tourach?
Just so you know... there are 8 copies of Buried Alive in this deck. Also I would recommend entomb to aid getting cards into the graveyard quickly.
Liliana Vess. She discards angels and brings them back.
nim's deathmantle please comment on my deck http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=170664
lol 8 burried alive. haha! sorry bout that. anyway, I cant put entomb since it costs too much and no one wants to sell it! also, I don't like hymn to tourach that much so I just put demonic tutor. i think that's gonna do :) any more comments? :D
also added 4 dash hopes
what if I take the dash hopes out and put in 4 lotus petals?
... If you have 4 Lotus Petals laying around, of course you should put them in! Not only is it mana ramp, but it's mana ramp of any color so you could theoritically hard cast one of your angels with it!
Not sure if you want to do this... But Horrifying Revaltion (B): discard and mill target player. Also, Liliana Vess would do incredibly well in this deck!! She has: Discard, Tutor, AND Reanimation (for everything in every graveyard of course...)!
Just saw how fast this works... I don't think it even needs the mana ramp, just more discard and reanimation...
so what do you suggest I do with this?
How try scrapping the Dash Hopes and instead try playing more reanimation? (that is unless there is no more good cheap reanimation stuff.)
there's probably no more. the only thing missing there is entomb. that's because it's veeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeery expensive.
hmmm i'm actually considering of putting lilliana ves here... i thought of it and it seemed like a very nice suggestion.
kool idea, Its nice when couples can share hobbies, my girlfriend and I play magic together aswell
yep! the couple that plays together, stays together
And grats on making top decks :)
patriarc's bidding....? also, where did you're burried allive go? you should have atleast around three. and do you realize kharmic guide will die the turn after you play her due to echo? oh, and if u want to be evil, there's a card for BBBB that either makes your opponent loose half their life or lets you take another turn. other than that, i'd just put razia up to 3 so you'll draw her more often (dont worry, you'll almost never have a problem with legendary rule cause she is biggest removal target), maybe a phyrexian arena or two, and through in a raven's crime. that should fix things up. hope i helped.
oh yeah! where did the burried alive go? I was wondering why the deck felt so loose. About the additional creatures... I was actually thinking about putting iona more since it's a global control. i dunno. lemme fix it up for a bit.
that looks much better. i actualy ment to say reya instead of razia, because she recurs your ceratures. my bad. but trust me, if you put reya up to 3, you wont regret it. you could drop a razia for that and you should think of something to drop for another patraircs bidding. for some reason. for some reason, those guys run best at 3. hope i helped!
There. I now have 2 ionas and 2 razias. I also added patriarch's bidding but I'm still gonna check the availability of this card since, as you know, I'm really gonna make this deck with a tight budget. also scraped the demonic tutor since they're so expensive. i'm planning on adding just 2 diabolic tutor (same effect, higher casting cost). Since the concept of this deck it to get my creatures out fast, i don't think I have enough fuel to go on to late game if I got bad draw or got controlled. So I was thinking of putting in Lilliana Vess, your thoughts?
seems simlpe enough for a beginner comment my soldier deck please yo http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=172190
Only one Dawnbringer? Best bomb-combo card in the deck and everybody has one too many of those FNM foils of her in their junk binder. Could swap out Karmic Guide for a second Dawnbringer or swap out one of the Boros angels. Should also include one Serra Angel. Just 'cause, man. The classic that started it all. You could probably get one of the great-looking Revised edition ones for the price of a cup of coffee. As for Liliana Vess, there's only one way to answer that question: Show her the card. Does she frown, or do her eyes light up with possibility? If she likes it, swap a couple Vess for a couple Funeral Charms. If she doesn't, no sense trying to fit it in, right? :-)
You are absolutely right! She prolly wont like how liliana looks anyway. haha! about that serra thing... that seems like a good idea. if I can get my hands on a textless serra angel, than why not!! :D
Heres a Combo I run in my Pain in da A$$ deck. check it out if you like and comment. You need Iona shield of Emeria, Painter's Servant, and buried alive or Entomb is better. Play Painters servant entomb Iona and bring her out with dance of the dead or whatever and you can stop your opponents from playing spells on the 2nd turn. You'll need some dark rituals to be able to get her out on the 2nd turn tho
I was actually thinking of replacing 2 reanimates with 2 dance of the dead. do you think that's good? But i'm thinking 2 mana to untap kinda hurts. hmmm...
looks like u have everything but the painter's servant i would highly recommend that u put him in here just for that combo
cause if u can get iona out and painter servant on 2nd turn u can just sit back and relax while u build an army to take out or foes works great in multiplayer games
I LIKE this deck. Awesome concept, and I think Liliana would definitely fit in =-)
The only thing that I have to say is it reminds me of a friends deck back when he still played. Though my friends deck was knights/angel black white re-animate, but this is still epic.
*replaced Karmic Guide with an additional Reya Dawn Bringer
Cabal Therapy might be nice for a turn 1 discard instead of funeral charm, since you can also cast it from the graveyard by sac-ing a creature. But funeral charm does have other uses as well. Just an Idea.
I still prefer Funeral Charm. I have all big creatures, it would be a waste if if would sac them just for a discard. Well, except for putrid imp but his ability is to discard so... yeah. i believe funeral charm will work better :)
You could use Strongarm Tactics or Rotting Rats or Smallpox or (ehh) Rix Maadi, Dungeon Palace with some red mana sources...
Other options to look at -- Blackmail Plague Witch Scepter of Fugue Zombie Infestation ...especially those last two
UMm no painters servant???????????
The deck is too crowded for that card, sorry. Though that's a great card for any Iona based deck. :)
cool stuff, Im a fan of all angel decks. I make quite a few of them. Non-reanimator though since i can just reanimate eldrazi crap, but i like this. http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=139905 build that deck for your girlfriend. She'll like it more.
Entomb is almost absolutely required, very similar concept to my buried alive deck
except now i see everyone has been saying the same thing, so disregard
Entomb is tooooo expensive :(
You should probably take out on razia and put in akroma angel of fury. The reason is because you can play her face down for morph cost and get her killed fast and then resurrect her easily. also the land might be a issue since its only 18 lands. I'd get maybe up to 20 atleast with this kind of deck. You could also grab some legendary lands like urborg, and a few others. also grab maybe one or two man lands for extra balance. g/l !
... you dont have the right mana
the purpose of the deck is not to cast the angels... You fail to see the beauty here... getting angels out the graveyard... You have to discard them to the GY, then pull them into play from there... It's beautiful...
