Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This is a Mono-White Angel tribal deck helmed by Giada, Font of Hope, who accelerates Angel deployment with her mana ability and pumps each entering Angel with +1/+1 counters. The primary plan is straightforward: deploy a critical mass of flying Angels, leverage the deck's heavy life-gain synergies (Righteous Valkyrie, Resplendent Angel, The Wind Crystal, Sigarda's Splendor) to draw cards and grow the board, then close out with overwhelming aerial combat. Secondary win conditions include the Heliod, Sun-Crowned + Walking Ballista infinite combo, Angel of Destiny's life-total alternate win, and The Book of Exalted Deeds' "can't lose" lock on a flying Angel. The deck is a classic battlecruiser: resilient, board-centric, and slow to close, with a dense suite of Angels and protection but almost no way to find its combo pieces.
