Akroma, Angel of Fury

Akroma, Angel of Fury can't be countered.
Flying, trample, protection from white and from blue
{R}: Akroma, Angel of Fury gets +1/+0 until end of turn.
Morph {3}{R}{R}{R} (You may cast this card face down as a 2/2 creature for {3}. Turn it face up any time for its morph cost.)

A spell or ability that counters spells can still target Akroma. When that spell or ability resolves, Akroma won't be countered, but any additional effects of the countering spell or ability will still happen.

If Akroma, Angel of Fury is cast face down, it can be countered.

In a Commander game where Akroma is your commander, you may cast it face down from the command zone by paying {3} plus {2} for each time it has been cast from your command zone. The cost to turn it face up is unaffected. While face down, the combat damage it deals is still counted as damage dealt by your commander.

This spell can't be countered.
Flying, trample, protection from white and from blue
{R}: Akroma, Angel of Fury gets +1/+0 until end of turn.
Morph {3}{R}{R}{R} (You may cast this card face down as a 2/2 creature for {3}. Turn it face up any time for its morph cost.)

"Wrath is no vice when inflicted upon the deserving."

Akroma, Angel of Wrath

Flying, first strike, vigilance, trample, haste, protection from black and from red

Archangel of Strife

Flying
As Archangel of Strife enters the battlefield, each player chooses war or peace.
Creatures controlled by players who chose war get +3/+0.
Creatures controlled by players who chose peace get +0/+3.

Archangel of Strife’s bonuses apply immediately. Depending on your choice, Archangel of Strife will enter the battlefield as either a 9/6 or 6/9 creature.

Archangel of Strife’s second and third abilities are linked. Similarly, its second and fourth abilities are linked. The bonus a player’s creatures get depends only on the choice that player made when Archangel of Strife entered the battlefield.

As soon as Archangel of Strife leaves the battlefield, the bonus stops applying. If it returns to the battlefield, players will be able to make new choices.

If there are two Archangels of Strife on the battlefield, and you choose war for one and peace for the other, your creatures get +3/+3.

The active player chooses war or peace first, followed by each other player in turn order. Each player will know what previous players chose when making their choice.

Where Razia was aloof and untouchable, Aurelia is on the frontlines, calling for war.

Aurelia, the Warleader

Flying, vigilance, haste
Whenever Aurelia, the Warleader attacks for the first time each turn, untap all creatures you control. After this phase, there is an additional combat phase.

If Aurelia is put onto the battlefield attacking, the triggered ability won't trigger.

You don't have to attack with any creatures during the additional combat phase.

You untap all creatures you control, including ones that aren't attacking.

A golden helix streaked skyward from the Helvault. A thunderous explosion shattered the silver monolith and Avacyn emerged, free from her prison at last.

Avacyn, Angel of Hope

Flying, vigilance, indestructible
Other permanents you control have indestructible.

A planeswalker with indestructible still loses loyalty as it's dealt damage. It is put into its owner's graveyard if its loyalty becomes 0.

Because damage remains marked on a creature until the damage is removed as the turn ends, nonlethal damage dealt to a creature you control may become lethal if Avacyn leaves the battlefield during that turn.

Some angels protect the meek and innocent. Others seek out and smite evil wherever it lurks.

Baneslayer Angel

Flying, first strike, lifelink, protection from Demons and from Dragons

“Protection from Demons and from Dragons” means the following: -- Baneslayer Angel can't be blocked by creatures with the creature type Demon or the creature type Dragon. -- Baneslayer Angel can't be targeted abilities from sources with the creature type Demon or the creature type Dragon, or by spells with either of those types. -- All damage that would be dealt to Baneslayer Angel by sources with the creature type Demon or the creature type Dragon is prevented. -- Baneslayer Angel can't be enchanted by Auras or equipped by artifacts that have somehow gotten the creature type Demon or the creature type Dragon.

Entreat the Angels

Put X 4/4 white Angel creature tokens with flying onto the battlefield.
Miracle {X}{W}{W} (You may cast this card for its miracle cost when you draw it if it's the first card you drew this turn.)

A mana cost of {X}{X} means that you pay twice X. If you want X to be 3, you pay {6}{W}{W}{W} to cast Entreat the Angels.

Entreat the Angels’s converted mana cost is based on its mana cost of {X}{X}{W}{W}{W}, even if you’re casting it for its miracle cost. For example, if you cast Entreat the Angels for its miracle cost and choose 4 for X, its converted mana cost is 11.

If an effect puts a card into your hand without using the word “draw,” the card wasn’t drawn.

If the card with miracle leaves your hand before the triggered ability resolves, you won’t be able to cast it using its miracle ability.

It’s important to reveal a card with miracle before it is mixed with the other cards in your hand.

Miracle is an alternative cost to cast the spell with miracle. It can’t be combined with other alternative costs, such as casting a spell “without paying its mana cost.”

Multiple card draws are always treated as a sequence of individual card draws. For example, if you haven’t drawn any cards yet during a turn and cast a spell that instructs you to draw three cards, you’ll draw them one at a time. Only the first card drawn this way may be revealed and cast using its miracle ability.

To determine the total cost of a spell, start with the mana cost or alternative cost (such as a miracle cost) you’re paying, add any cost increases, then apply any cost reductions. The converted mana cost of the spell remains unchanged, no matter what the total cost to cast it was.

You can cast a card for its miracle cost only as the miracle triggered ability resolves. If you don’t want to cast it at that time (or you can’t cast it, perhaps because there are no legal targets available), you won’t be able to cast it later for the miracle cost.

You can reveal and cast a card with miracle on any turn, not just your own, if it’s the first card you’ve drawn that turn.

You cast the card with miracle during the resolution of the triggered ability. Ignore any timing rules based on the card’s type.

You don’t have to reveal a drawn card with miracle if you don’t wish to cast it at that time.

You still draw the card, whether you use the miracle ability or not. Any ability that triggers whenever you draw a card, for example, will trigger. If you don’t cast the card using its miracle ability, it will remain in your hand.

Create X 4/4 white Angel creature tokens with flying.
Miracle {X}{W}{W} (You may cast this card for its miracle cost when you draw it if it's the first card you drew this turn.)

Exalted Angel

Flying
Whenever Exalted Angel deals damage, you gain that much life.
Morph {2}{W}{W} (You may cast this card face down as a 2/2 creature for {3}. Turn it face up any time for its morph cost.)

You only gain the life when the triggered ability resolves. If you are reduced to zero life before the ability resolves, you will lose before gaining the life.

No more shall the righteous cower before evil.

Iona, Shield of Emeria

Flying
As Iona, Shield of Emeria enters the battlefield, choose a color.
Your opponents can't cast spells of the chosen color.

Iona’s third ability includes permanent spells (artifacts, creatures, enchantments, and planeswalkers), not just instant and sorcery spells. It does not include lands or abilities (such as cycling or unearth).

Once the color is chosen, it’s too late for opponents to respond by casting spells of that color. Iona is not yet in the battlefield at the time the color is chosen, so, for example, there’s no way for an opponent to destroy it by casting Doom Blade if the chosen color is black.

She enraptures all, encompasses all, endures all.

Iridescent Angel

This card has Protection from Black, from Blue, from Red, from White, and from Green. This is the definition of “All Colors”. This means it is possible to use an effect that removes one color of protection, such as just black, on this card.

Wounded soldiers looked up, grateful for her appearance. But she passed over them, her eyes firmly on their foe.

Jenara, Asura of War

Flying
{1}{W}: Put a +1/+1 counter on Jenara, Asura of War.

Lightning Angel

She is the apex of the artificer's craft, the spirit of the divine called out of base metal.

Platinum Angel

Flying
You can't lose the game and your opponents can't win the game.

Effects that say the game is a draw, such as the _Legends_(TM) card Divine Intervention, are not affected by Platinum Angel. They'll still work.

You can concede a game while Platinum Angel on the battlefield. A concession causes you to leave the game, which then causes you to lose the game (Once you concede, you no longer control a Platinum Angel, so its ability can't prevent you from losing the game).

If you control Platinum Angel in a Two-Headed Giant game, your team can't lose the game and the opposing team can't win the game.

No game effect can cause you to lose the game or cause any opponent to win the game while you control Platinum Angel. It doesn't matter whether you have 0 or less life, you're forced to draw a card while your library is empty, you have ten or more poison counters, you're dealt combat damage by Phage the Untouchable, your opponent has Mortal Combat with twenty or more creature cards in their graveyard, or so on. You keep playing.

Other circumstances can still cause you to lose the game, however. You will lose a game if you concede, if you're penalized with a Game Loss or a Match Loss during a sanctioned tournament due to a DCI rules infraction, or if your _Magic Online_(R) game clock runs out of time.

Born with wings of light and a sword of faith, this heavenly incarnation embodies both fury and purity.

Tariel, Reckoner of Souls

Flying, vigilance
{T}: Choose a creature card at random from target opponent's graveyard. Put that card onto the battlefield under your control.

The creature card is chosen at random from among creature cards in the target opponent’s graveyard as the ability resolves. Players can respond to the ability knowing the targeted player, but they won’t know which creature card is about to enter the battlefield.

The only target of this ability is the opponent.
