Several of these make no sense whatsoever...

For starters: why do you have 3 {Seraph Sanctuary} and a {Scroll of Avacyn} without any angels in the deck?

And why waste your time with {Curse of Misfortunes} when you only have 1 other curse in the deck (and a very conditional one, at that)?

The curse thing I've been debating for a while.  I do need to get more black and blue curse cards, and that particular setup really only works in a larger group anyway - I was thinking swap for Azure Mage and Mind Control.  As for the others, I don't have many colorless lands.  I also have an Angelic Armaments, which gives me a converted angel.  I know that seems like betting the farm, but it's worked several times for me so far.  Keep in mind I haven't played since Ice Age, and a lot has changed. Anything else that doesn't jive?  Thanks for taking the time to look! :)
