Deck Description

A nice, highly inexpensive, mono-white angel-themed deck.

How to Play

Azorius Arrester and Judge's Familliar help control the early game so that you'll have time to get your angels out. Cathedral Sanctifier buys a little time with life, and Doomed Traveler can block for at least two turns.

By turn four, you can put down a Seraph of Dawn, or a Serra Avenger or two. Next you can put down a Serra Angel, and the turn after that an Angelic Skirmisher. Proceed to overrun your opponent with you angels.

Cloudshift and Faith's Shield protect your angels from removal. You can also Cloudshift Azorius Arrester to detain something again, or Cathedral Sanctifier to gain some more life.

In the sideboard is Elixer of Immortality for mill decks, Towmod's Crypt for graveyard based decks, Dryad Militant for Flashback decks, Snapcaster decks, etc, and Nearheath Pilgrim for gaining extra life against Burn and RDW.

Deck discussion for Angels

Quite well thought out. Had you considered a set of seraph sanctuary?

I don't think adding them would help much, but it's not a bad idea.

Instead of the Serra Avenger I would consider putting Angel of Jubilations. They can come out on turn 4 also and will boost all other creatures already in play. I like Defy Death, since you have a lot of angels which could benefit from coming back beefed up. Possible side board item.
