Deck discussion for Archangel Gainlife

feels like it focuses to much on lifelink, and I don't see many ways for you to protect your angle.

I agree, a couple ways to dig her up is all. I took her out of a better deck to try this out. Havent built decks for about a decade and didnt keep many old cards...so they are all a work in progress.

Now, if I understand correctly, it seems that you've recently acquired cards from the newer sets and are trying to build a lifelink/lifegain deck out of them with some of the old cards you've kept from before. Am I right so far?
I would remove a mass majority of these cards and insert doubles of cards you already have. Daggerdrome Imp is one of my favorite cards to come out of the new Ravnica. I would suggest 4 of him, immediately! Archangel of Thune is a brilliant card, but you need ways to protect her so that you can get the best uses out of her.
You could easily take out the Gatekeepers, Soulmender, Stonefare Croc, Stonehorn Chanter, Gnawling Zombie, Festering Newt/Bubbling Cauldron, Midnight Recovery, and the Staff of Wild Magus.
In their place, I would recommend some Orzhov Guild cards. Sanguine Bond is also fun. Ajani Pridemate, and some other lifegain cards that would boost your life total would also be good.
Sorry. Didn't mean to write you a paragraph, but I want this deck to work so badly. G/B/W is one of my favorite colour combinations, but I can never seem to get it to work correctly. Good luck!

Nah dont be sorry man. You are correct about my card state, though I lost the majority of the old. To be honest I would love to have a comment like this on each of my decks, especially since this is leftovers from the rest of them...besides the angel, trying to get in the groove of the new 60 card thing and simplifying strategies. Those are great suggestions for this deck and I will keep an eye open for them. I like the G/B/W combo too, and think this is a good way to go. Cheers!

Honestly, what I do, is I think of an idea or strategy for a deck and put it on here. See what people say about it or how useful it can be. Make alterations if I feel like they'll work. Then make the deck if I feel like it'll work with my playgroup. I use this site as a test and as a reminder of what I should get.
