Removal resistant on a 5/5 flying body, whats not to love? Slap on Darksteel Plate and the only thing left to fear is Black Sun's Zenith and friends.... If they don't counter it or board wipe first...
I wonder why the price is so low honestly, 7 dollars for such a sturdy creature.

This gal here counters eldrazi decks. sure, you sill have to worry about HUEG creatures, but annilator becomes useless.
just be careful, this gal will NOT save you from sacrifice effects from YOUR cards.

@Lifegainwithbite: First of all, it was theoretical. Second of all, I've yet to see a comment of yours where you're not trying to tell someone what an incredible idiot they are. You clearly understand the game and you're not a moron, so why do you have to be so insecure?
Also, turning the {G}{W} Modern hexproof/aura deck into an EDH deck with as the Commander seems like a fun idea.

Ok, so we have here a 5 CMC 5/5 flyier with hexproof that makes your permanents immune to sacrifice with only 3.96 rating? WTF?

Tutorable with Green Sun's Zenith => reliably run just 1 while powering out a nigh-unstoppable finisher.
5/5 from me

I had a equipment-voltron Commander deck with her. Incredibly fun. Not as outright powerful as something like Rafiq, but all of her evasions definitely help her stick around more often.

This was probably designed to combat Eldrazi in EDH, but it hoses a hell of a lot of other cards as collateral damage. Sacrifice effects always felt fair; they dodged protection, hexproof and indestructible but were always balanced by the fact that the opponent could choose their worst creature (except in the case of Grave Pact, which is broken because it makes you sacrifice all the creatures).
Tajuru Preserver was a fair way to nerf sacrifices; it hosed them completely, but was itself vulnerable to many other forms of removal. Leyline of Sanctity makes Diabolic Edict a dead card for the entire game, but it's balanced by being useless against many other decks.
But this... not only hoses sacrifices, it dodges everything but board wipes, can be played alongside another angel that fills in the gaps in its armor, and is still 5 for a 5/5 flier?
I... (see all)
