So, for a while now, I have been experimenting with using Archangel as a vessel for buffs of some sort... Mainly because im sick of my citters getting beaten down with CC, and i love the healing mechanic of the angels, coupled with decent damage and health...
First I tried them with rage pots, wishing to take advantage of their healing ability to quickly buff them up to 13 or 19 damage... It worked ok, im sure someone could have done a better job of it than I... infact Im pretty sure they have.
Next I tried acceleration and momentum... decent, but you always need that extra angel or two unbuffed to heal the others up... plus for some reason i couldnt get the QI quite right...
Then i thought.... what if we just shove it all in together?
This deck is intended as a boredom buster against Ai3, Bronze and (Maybe) Silver League.
In the Spoiler is the origional version, but does not apply to the sats:

Here is the version I am currently using, and afterwards the stats relate to this deck:

Before opening the stat spoiler, I have to say I have never enjoyed noting down the stats of a deck more... I REALLY like playing this deck:
STATS (50 games, Bronze League)
GAMES: 50
WIN: 37
LOSS: 13
EM: 8
WIN %: 74%
SPINS: 3
No, not ground-breaking. But I will be adding it to my rota of farming decks as a boredom buster. It is bloody fun to play! you never know what mad Angels the RNG will land you with, and sometimes you get truly crazy ones very quickly.
Now.. It isnt as fast as a usual pure rush deck, (i didnt take note of ttw, but was usually around 7-10) and will suffer against something like VnG for example, but it makes up for this by being really quite hard to control... the momentum takes you clean through any shields, and the AI has problems using most CC against you successfully, as you can heal up most damage the next turn.
Generally the adrenaline goes on its own with a momentum, landing you a tasty 17 momentumed damage. Dont bother shoving adrenaline on an already madly buffed angel. The LS usually goes on the opposite, a madly buffed phat angel; however if you have a spare one to heal it, can go on your adrenalangel
Lastly, rage pot can be used as CC, and LS can be used as lobo.
If you want you can juggle it to include a TU, or an acceleration, but i wouldnt bother, i have tried it and it can be clunky. similarly you dont have enough light quanta for blessing, and mitosis is just silly.
Only thing i consistantly lose against are very fast rushes (which are not usual in bronze) or Rewind/mutation. lobo and antimatter can be a pain, but not too bad.
Enjoy
Also, if anyone has ideas about possible development, I'm all ears. I have tried searching for similar decks to no avail, but if someone got there before me, sorry
