I've been trying to pimp out my duel decks.
Radiant, Archangel is almost always a strict upgrade to Serra.

I feel sort of sorry for Greg Staples for having painted the Serra Angel art that's famous for not being the gorgeous portrait by Douglas Schuler (on the Beta/Revised/Unlimited/4th edition angels). I guess it's still better than being the artist whose Serra Angel everyone has forgotten (Mark Zug for 7th edition, apparently).
Probably Staple's artwork here is just fine, but the old Serra Angel art triggers nostalgia like no other card in the game (except maybe Lord of the Pit, for that wistful "remember when we thought this was good" feeling).
Serra Angels with the old artwork and the new flavor text would be grand, maybe in a future From the Vault set.
