Title: Sublime Archangel deck?
Post by: Fallout812 on August 27, 2012, 02:13:16 PM
Ok, so Im trying to build a deck that incorporates my newest card {Sublime Archangel} :). Im conflicted on the other color besides white and how to proceed. Can I get some pro advice plz :(?

Ive seen it work great with goblin token spam, black exalted, and above all else green aggro. Rancor plus massive exalted on semi evasive creatures with flying, hexproof, undying, and regenerate get it for a lot of damage.

Go green for the mana ramp and {rancor}. You will love it!

Splash green to make tokens with {parallel lives} and give them all exalted with {sublime archangel}. Or just attack with a {knotvine paladin} and he gets even bigger with more tokens and exalted. Splash blue and you can try to play with {Infinite reflections} and {rafiq of the many}

Haha I didn't mean, play blue so you can use infinite reflections on rafiq. I meant, play blue so you can have those cards in the deck. Play {infinite reflections} on {sublime archangel} with a lot of tokens and then turn them all into copies of sublime. My baaad

No need to call people awful names D:

And piotr yeh!! I see sublime as one of those cards that you just ALWAYS want mote copys of on the battlefield. So great to have even 2 out.

Imagine 4 of them out. Swing for 20, or what?

Token gen, archangel and {Mirrorweave}, then spend 20min doing the math.  XD

Exponential gain ftw. Hahaha and have {doubling season} out before mirror weave comes out.

I'm pretty sure it'll take more then twenty minutes.

If the only Exalted are coming from the angel, it's

number of crits x number of angels

which is pretty easy, isn't it.

Jester, I think we need a mathematical algorithm for this. We could call it "The Jester Theory". 😝

It's not that bad: with {Mirrorweave} and a {Sublime Archangel}, attacking with a single creature will give you a

(4+n^2)/(3+n^2), where n = # creatures you control.

So for three critters, one attacker would be 4/3 flying plus +9/+9.

It gets better if there are any +1/+1 counters on the creature, since it keeps those after the {Mirrorweave}.
