Angels: They're Just Like Us but Cooler and with Wings
Bracket 2 by the list · Core
Blue: the colour is how well it does what Bracket 2 allows.
- The three dials average 87 for what Bracket 2 allows, held to 79 by the cap: that sets the colour.
- Capped: Health 62. The colour sits at most one step above the weakest dial; without the cap it would be green.
- Power 30 counts as 100 here: Bracket 2 is for Power 25 and up. With Manabase 97 and Health 62, that is 87 on average (weights 40 / 30 / 30).
- No Game Changers, mass land denial or pile of extra turns: Core by the list. Exhibition (1) is about what a deck is for, and only you can say that.
- Combos are not checked yet.
Power 30: why
- Average mana value 3.57: middling
- 2 pieces of fast mana: Everflowing Chalice, Sol Ring
- 2 tutors
Manabase 97: why
- 39 lands, counting ramp ≈ 43.5 sources: enough for mana value 3.57
- 4 lands always enter tapped
- Every colour has the sources its heaviest cards want
Health 62: why
- Only 3 ways to remove a threat (aim for 8)
- 12 spells cost 6 or more (20% of spells; aim under 10%)
- Only 8 ramp pieces (aim for 10)

2 · Core by the list. The bracket comes from Wizards' card rules alone; the colour says how well the deck does what Bracket 2 allows.

How fast and how hard this deck can take over a game. Absolute: about 90 and up is cEDH, so a casual deck scores low on purpose.

- 2 pieces of fast mana: Everflowing Chalice, Sol Ring
- 2 tutors
- 8 cards that draw or dig
- 2 answers at mana value 2 or less, and free spells: Sephara, Sky's Blade

Scores read the list alone, from each card's own rules text: they can't see how a deck is played. Bracket names and the Game Changers list are Wizards of the Coast's (Commander Brackets, list as Wizards last changed it, 9 February 2026).
Led by Gisela, the Broken Blade. A mono-white Commander deck built around lifegain, on a Angel kindred base. 27 creatures, 39 lands, average mana value 3.57.
