Notes

What cards am I disappointed by when I draw?

Maybe add Serra's Blessing? If I re-add Fruit of the First Tree, does it just go on Arcades or do I add a way to sac creatures?Add Island sanctuary? Aura Shards & Aluren?

Add Shield Sphere or Wall of Nets? Possibly Remove Wall of Swords. What else could go? Control Magic, and maybe expensive enchantments. Add more low CMC? How competitive to make the deck?

Add Invincible Hymn to pair with Tree of Redemption and Beacon of Immortality?
