Sadly, this isn't a cost-effective replacement for Kor Skyfisher where bounce decks are concerned.

I don't know about you guys, but I'm going to use mine with Abundant Growth for card advantage along with my 3/3 beater.

Return a tapped land you control to your hand. You don't play a land this turn? = "When Emancipation Angel enters the battlefield, untap target land you control".

OR

Return a CIP/soulbound to your hand.

+

3/3 flying for 3. Uncommon. Angel.

=

5/5.

Kor Skyfisher and Glint Hawk are both better cards in this category. /just/ missed the ball here on this one, Wizards. Just barely.

Yep, great artwork!

Also, a 3/3 flyer for 1WW should cost something around 5. Pretty decent.

Stricly worse than Stonecloaker, who has flash and is easier to use with it costing 2White. And that's not even mentioning the 'Cloarker's graveyard hate ability.

Sometimes I think a lot of the MTG community really misses the "point" of cards in a set... why bounce?

Indeed why "to hand" bounce when you can just use flicker effects that the white angels of this set seem to have in higher abundance... cloudshift if you need an example. So why bounce?

Mikaeus, the Lunarch.

Okay GTO, but ONE card to abuse with it is kinda gimmicky. Why don't we add to that list...

Herald of war - can easily make this angel cost WhiteWhite for a 3/3 flying
CATHARS' CRUSADE - wait... what?

This thing can bounce itself, triggering it's own ETB effect with which to abuse the crusade. Potentially WhiteWhite (at worst 1WhiteWhite) for +1/+1 counters to all your creatures, including the herald of war that's making it cheaper - and by result making all your other future angels cheaper at the same time? Awesome. Just awesome. A bit late game without ramp seeing as the "set up"... (see all)
