I gave my friend my promo {Mazes End} bc he was making an end deck way back when. And now when I was building Gorzos Madness EDH deck I realized I need a Mazes End ... So I bought one! I've never felt more humiliated in my life! Thank God the guy at the counter doesn't play mtg and he doesn't know the shame in buying one!!
Why is that humiliating?
It is just an awful mythic rare card. I was over exaggerating but it's never fun to buy a dumb card like that. Even if it does help my EDH deck
Awful? Hardly.
Awkward? Definitely.
{Archangel's Light} was an awful mythic.

If only it didn't cost 8 :P
This.... wasn't what I was expecting.

If it were a {W} {Psychic Spiral} it would have been godly.

What makes it even worse is that it's a sorcery ...
I used to run Archangel's Light in my Kaalia deck. Replaced it with Sheoldred. XD

Why {Sheoldred, Whispering One} in a {Kaalia of the Vast} deck? Yes Sheoldred is great but why not another demon angel or dragon?

{Reya dawnbringer}
Just saying
Reya is great, can be "cheated in" with Kaalia, and looks AMAZING in her super-foil promo, but she's still not as nasty as Sheoldred. Sheoldred has the lower mana cost, higher power, and the insane sacrifice ability.
Reya's the kind of girl you bring home to meet your parents. Sheoldred is the kind of girl you meet backstage at a megadeth concert. Both awesome. But oh so different.

That's an unreal angel! Never knew that card existed. I love when cards are $5 non foil the $50 foil lol you know they're good when!!
Here's the thing. Gorzo. Well maybe i should have never tore my kallia deck apart but I just kept getting complaints. So you got kalia. Then you get things like {quicksilver amulet}
Or my personal favorite
{Dragon's arch}
And be playing cheap angels and etc. There's a couple other quick pop artifacts
{Guantlets of power} are fun
I like my two-for-one abilities. Sheoldred is a perfect example of that. Yes, I realise that Reya would be closer themed, but I like shutting down what my opponents can do. That's also why I have Iona in there. XD

NO!! JUST NO!! EDH HAS NO ROOM FOR IONA!!!! Lol obviously jk but she can be a b**** lol
EDH has ALL THE ROOM for Iona. XD
I was playing a multiplayer Commander game last week, and I was up against two Grixis decks (one {Thraximundar} and the other {Jeleva, Nephalia's Scourge}) and an Esper (running {Oloro, Ageless Ascetic}). Flashed Iona in with Kaalia, shut down Black, won game. XD
Glad my oloro deck is mostly blue
Oh, if I'm being pestered by a particular colour, I make it my mission to deny that colour to my enemies.
Lol nice
That's why its good to have awnsers from all colors
Not everyone has that mindset though. And if you don't draw/can't cast/are unable to tutor for the removal of Iona, she trolls everyone but me.
I play 5-colour in EDH so ill be fine lol
Maelstrom or tri-colour decks usually go okay against Iona when I get her out, unless I shut down a colour they rely on, like this guy's Grixis Zombie deck that rivals me a fair bit. Large dose of Black. XD
If there's a more or less even mix of colours, then a deck goes fine against me. Otherwise they flounder a bit.

You know what's great about 5 color EDH? No one ever says the words "Iona, declaring the color RED."
Iona is annoying, but easy to predict and work around ;)
In my experience, Iona's only been worked around if they've gone through the deck first. Otherwise they get smashed by her, and find it difficult to deal with it.
And if she doesn't work the first time, I flicker her and choose a different colour. XD
Oh yeah well ill just play my iona first and call white nyah!
