American Control

Red, white, and blue.  It means a lot for countries (note the flags of France, the US, and Britain, among others) but can also mean something in Magic.

Lightning Angel is a classic example of the idea that the more colors a card has, the more powerful it can be.  I like the card, so I decided to throw together a control deck around Lightning Angel.

3 Crackleburr
4 Izzet Guildmage
4 Lightning Angel
4 Minister of Impediments
3 Numot, the Devastator
3 Spiketail Hatchling
3 Stun Sniper

4 Disenchant
4 Flame Slash
4 Spell Pierce

4 Evolving Wilds
5 Island
6 Mountain
5 Plains
4 Terramorphic Expanse

You can substitute Rakavolvers in place of Numots if you don't have them sitting around, both work fine.

Until next time, play on.
