This card is dull.

@ Doragon
I wasn't trying to be self-entitled. I meant it as an example to what she fits better. She keeps balance in that she is on the side of the humans. She evens it out not as an impartial middle but as a stronger fighter for one side. She does keep balance, but doesn't kill the humans should they start murdering all the vampires. There are even flavor texts that say the vampires were pushed even farther down in power with her return. Also, as to saying that she is not a preaching angel, she is the figurehead and power behind a whole church. There are those that worship her and she supports the people that seek her out. She doesn't just stand there with no interaction from anyone who follows her looking down on them as "naive" humans. She fights for them actively and bolsters them.
How could Sorin's creation of her not be noble? He chose subsistence over decadence and chose to protect humanity. He could've watched them all die and he wanted to prevent that from happening. Even ... (see all)

@henrietta You're disregarding the fact that it is A) easy to cheat creature cards out and B) easy to last eight turns to play 8 mana. ESPECIALLY IN WHITE!
@Camicazee-or-however-you-spell-it, Actually, it will. Read the rules. If you've been playing for under six months, gatherer forgives you.

Alright guys, I run this in my Frites deck. Akroma's Memorial, sword of war and peace, sword of feast and famine, sword of mind and body. I also, run the green praetor. This card is unstoppable in my deck. I have protection from every color, and people usually quit when I get this on turn 3. Amazing card for any deck.

So, Akroma, Angel of Wrath finally has some competition in the "big epic 8CMC angel" category. On her own, Akroma is still probably better, but Avacyn is nothing to sneeze at either -- especially in EDH, where Day of Judgment and the like are suddenly one-sided. She's going straight into my Kaalia of the Vast deck, for sure.

This will be terrifying to face in Limited without a hand of exile, bounce, and library banishing. And she will be in every Kaalia of the Vast deck, mark my words.

Interesting... the only way I ca think of for mono red to deal with her is to throw her back into the Helvault or have Karn Liberated liberate her (wink wink nod nod)
