Bant 60 cards, 0 sideboard 2 {Seaside Citadel} 1 {Bant Panorama} 5 {Island} 1 {Reliquary Tower} 4 {Cathedral of War} 5 {Plains} 6 {Forest} 24 lands 1 {Bruna, Light of Alabaster} 1 {Sublime Archangel} 1 {Sigiled Paladin} 1 {Gisela, Blade of Goldnight} 3 {Avacyn's Pilgrim} 2 {Ethercaste Knight} 1 {Battlegrace Angel} 3 {Academy Rector} 2 {Court Archers} 1 {Avacyn, Angel of Hope} 2 {Lost Auramancers} 4 {Noble Hierarch} 22 creatures 2 {Jace, Memory Adept} 1 {Finest Hour} 1 {Omniscience} 1 {Angelic Benediction} 1 {Angelic Destiny} 1 {Garruk Wildspeaker} 1 {Bant Charm} 3 {Leyline of Anticipation} 2 {Tamiyo, the Moon Sage} 1 {Omniscience} 14 other spells Sideboard

My first run at a Bant Casual Deck. Focus on Angels, and a few plays for {Omniscience} to get the Angels for free.
Thoughts? I want to build this overtime, so changes can occur.

Any suggestions? :)

After giving it a glance, I would suggest trying to make some room for mana ramping cards. It seems like you might get some dead hands with all the higher costing cards, and having that extra mana available could help out with that.

{Solemn Simacrum}

This deck has 7 mana dorks and {Garruk Wildspeaker} to help ramp mana.  I would be careful with those 5 colorless lands in a tri colored deck.  I see no use for the reliquary tower.  I also see little use for Jace in this deck and the leylines could also be swapped for something more useful......maybe some creature control like my personal favorite {swords to plowshares}.

The main use for jace was just a little extra draw potential. The potential hope is to get academy rector out and then chunked for omniscience, and hopefully follow up soon with Tamiyo's ultimate. Thus no mana cast for cards I can put back in my hand, and the key lines are just to add that ability anytime I want. The reliquary tower I actually am taking out for sure. I'll play around with creature control and see gets a good game. Test hands have been inconsistent to say the least. Thanks guys. :)

Yea I got the rector and omniscience combo but a 5 CMC jace just to draw one card is not very efficient.  If you want card drawing just use {brainstorm} or even cantrips like {gitaxian probe}.....focus card drawing spells as low CMC as possible so you can still have mana to play those cards you draw.

Mk... Thanks!

No rafiq? :(

He's a consideration, but my girlfriend is the one who gets this deck when I make it real, and she has been wanting an Angel Deck. So human/Angel is the sub-flavor. Lol
