The deck functions like Turbofog, but instead of having a ridiculous war of attrition with an enemy to mill them to death, you instead run them over with an army of angels.

Thing is, those Ascensions draw a lot of attention from Maelstrom Pulses and the like. I splashed blue to stop them with Negates.

Let me know what you think! :)

While I understand having 16 Fog-effects is comforting, I'd rather cut it to 12 and add 4 Jace, for drawing/milling opponents faster.

That way, you can stick angels to their face while milling more.

That sounds like a good idea, but I'm unsure of whether to cut Safe Passage to be cost-effective, or Tanglesap for insurance. Thoughts?

Cut the Tanglesaps and leave the Safe Passages. Safe passage is better in the long run, in my opinion.

Depends on how you actually want to win. If you want to win by ascension, Jace isn't all that necessary to provide you with the cards you need. You're supposed to be ending games a couple of turns after ascension is played anyway. The deck should care less about milling out the opponent but rather stick with the game plan, since if you want mill as a backup plan, it already is without Jace. There's not that much of a need to transform the deck into Jacerator if you don't want to. :3

I'd still take out the tanglesnaps though, considering that trample can be a problem. Can't think of what you'd want to put in there, though. :O

So guessing Jace isn't needed after all...

TIME WARP!!!

Or in all seriousness, spot removal like Path to Exile or a mass removal like Day of Judgement should be fine in place of the Saps.

Jacerator actually runs time warp. >.>

DoJ is probably good. :3
