I like the deck, but I would try to find a spot for turn/burn mainboard, that card is just so versatile and reliable.

Drop  {Boros Charm} for  {Turn // Burn} IMO.

Imo the restoration angels have no purpose here. with not blink targets all she does is instant speed chump block to get wrathed away.

Ehm I would not call 3/4 flying body as a chump blocker... I do not need him to bounce anything.. He works well even without that...;) I need from him 1-3 attacks or blocks... Nothing more...

I agree with resto seeming a little out of place. Why not just  {Fog Bank} if you need a good blocker.

Guys I get your point, but there are few reasons why to play {Restoration Angel}... You do not need to use its full potential to play it...

Resto will mostly kill if blocking, it can be played to surprise ur opponent, it can reset your {Ætherling} the turn after you attacked with him... And attacking to the open battlefield when your opponent does not expect that is simply worth playing...;)
