Am I the only one who noticed that her second ability is a must, not a may, and find this a little unusual?

She wouldn't look so innocent if she was hardwired into a Batterskull, would she now? 8/8 vigilant lifelinker with inbuilt spirit recursion for more equipping, you naughty angel?

Power art and flavor text. Perfectly captures the "fading light surrounded by darkness and doubt" feel of Innistrad's white. A nice card with lots of potential for recursion decks, and also a feasible finisher for spirit decks in need of big flying bodies. Also, a bomb in limited.

This art is so incredibly gorgeous. I don't mean because the angel is lovely (even though she is), but because of the deep melancholy of it. I love art that tells the whole story right in the picture.

I keep pulling these as my rare, and it's pretty good. The main issue is that, as of now, there aren't a whole lotta good spirits in Standard aside from Geist of Saint Traft. I use her in my Humans deck that has a few spirits for flying, and it works pretty well even as just a fat beater. Overall, though, really not bad, but I really hope that some good spirits come out in Dark Ascension

4/5

Not that great of a card right now, but I'm pretty confident that by the end of Innistrad block she'll have better/more relevant spirit support for her recursion ability.

Let's do some consideration...

A bad 5 mana angel -> Starlit Angel.
A good 5 mana angel -> Melesse Spirit, Angel of Light.
A very good 5 mana angel -> Serra Angel, Shepherd of the Lost, Angel of Flight Alabaster.
A too good 5 mana angel -> Baneslayer Angel, Angelic Overseer.

Very pretty, too bad she isn't even seen in W/U spirits

I just pulled one of these, immediately went into my W/U Spirit deck. Love having someone lightning bolt my Drogskol Captain, just to have it come back next turn, with another.
