Description

Angel's in Errant

This deck was inspired by the new card from Mom:

Errant and Giada is a lot of fun, landing in a flash on the battlefield to thwart the opentents small attacks and allowing you to play off the top of your library. All the creatures in this deck are fliers which can all be played from the top of the library by Errant and Giada. The only whiffs off the top of your Library would be:

The Elspeth's Smiteimage, is a way for you to remove most of the early threats. There is known issue taking care of Sheoldred, the Apocalypseimage as only Leyline Bindingimage will get rid of that abomination. You may need to up the count of Leyline Bindingimage in the deck, I only own 2. That or maybe run either of these cards:

  • Destroy Evilimage, is a great card for removing the 4 power and greater creatures and the enchantment that might plague you. 
  • Touch the Spirit Realmimage, is an awesome card that can save your creature from a board wipe including Foretell and cant be countered when bouncing, or it can remove a nasty creature from the oppents battlefield. 

The themes for this Deck: (Angel's, Fliers, Draw, Modified Creatures and Recursion)

Different Draw / Hand Smoothing Strategies: 

The Angels in the Deck: 

Removal and Support: 

  • Eiganjo, Seat of the Empireimage  - nice removal and there are plenty of legendaries in this deck. 
  • Elspeth's Smiteimage - quick kill on 3 toughness or less attacking and blocking creatures. 
  • Leyline Bindingimage - flash speed removal that can be played from top of library with Giada and Errant. 
  • The Wandering Emperorimage - flash speed removal, modify creatures, and tokens that can also be played from top of library with Giada and Errant. 
  • Surge of Salvationimage - great against Red and Black damage, makes all your creatures hex proof, and you as well keeping those nasty direct damage and removal spells away.
  • Invasion of Dominaria // Serra Faithkeeperimage - gains 4 life and draws you a card, makes an angel later. 
  • Ao, the Dawn Skyimage - helps against removal, by modifing your creatures if they kill it, or getting you another creature from your library, and is a large flying threat. 
  • Elspeth Resplendentimage - can dig for cards, modify your creatures, or create angels, nice top end card. 
  • Otawara, Soaring Cityimage - bounce if you have enough land. 

Where I think you can pivot this deck. This deck could definately be taken in a more control theme, I am not a counter player, but there are several good counter and bounce spells that would be great in this deck. I think there are some great possiblities there. This deck could also be taken way more agro by thinning the top end and looking for more 1 and 2 drop fliers. You could even put a few awesome ground units in and maybe add the new card:

I hope you all can do something amazing with this deck. If you tweek it into something really cool please let me know, espcially if you take it more in the control or agro direction. 

it is funny, how ideas seem to float in the air. So, I made this deck on 4/30/23 and now CGB just released a video 5/1/23 that is the Tempo version of this deck with alot of cards I mentioned above and a couple that are just a good idea to add especially the: 

image - Boon Bringer Valkyrie - image

I just plain overlooked the Commando, but the other two I have not been lucky enough to open in any of my packs, So I opted for the stuff I do have in my collection. Here a link to CBG's version: 

CGB Flight or Fight

 Also there is a nice Mardu version that is similar made by another very talented MTGA youtuber called Rumpley, you should check out his stuff:
