wallisface The plan if I can't win with damage is to deck the opponent, which is something I'm comfortable with. The angel is usually in the most danger right when it comes out, but as the game goes long the lock usually outpaces the opponent's ability to break it.

The deck is not interactive at all, but it can freely ignore anything not relating to removal. And it doesn't just sit for four turns--Glorious End, Chance for Glory, and Angel's Grace can functionally turn a T4 angel into a T3 angel, and it has ramp with Strike it Rich. And once the angel comes out, Glorious End and Pact of Negation become powerful counters, especially if you can stick Pact (or Blacksmith's Skill) on Isochron Scepter.

I'm also worried for the angel's safety--the success of the deck hinges entirely on it. I suppose you've identified some of the challenges of the deck, but I would be curious what specifically you would change to address them.

Try using Sudden Substitution targeting your own Glorious End, Warrior's Oath, or Alchemist's Gambit to exchange with an opponents creature to give them one final turn to win or lose. Its not perfect because you can only ever get one opponent with this but the split second makes it a useful interaction outside the combo too.

Light of Infinite Suns

Legendary Sorcery - Apocryphal

Apocryphal - Only one Apocryphal card may be in a deck at a time. An Apocryphal spell can not be copied or countered. After an Apocryphal spell resolves, exile it, then and end the turn if it's your turn.

Light of Infinite Suns deals 100 damage divided as you choose among up to three targets. Create a 4/4 white Angel creature token with flying for each player dealt damage this way.

I changed the wording a little bit on the keyword to avoid being able to just Glorious End your opponents if the card's an instant, hope that's ok.

Repeat.

Maybe try Sudden Substitution. You can cast it targeting your Glorious End and an opponents creature to give them their last turn. Also that kinda works with Alchemist's Gambit, Last Chance, Warrior's Oath and Final Fortune if they cant win with the extra turn.

Polaris on Does Sundial work with Seht's …

There's no interaction here. There's no delayed trigger involved; the protection just ends once you get to the cleanup step (after the end step - it's when damage wears off and "until end of turn" effects end). Sundial of the Infinite exiles everything on the stack and skips to the cleanup step, so regardless of when you use Sundial, Seht's Tiger's protection will expire immediately after Sundial's ability resolves.

"Until end of turn" just specifies a duration. A trigger will instruct you to take an action at that time. The kinds of effects ending the turn gets around are things that explicitly set up triggers, like Glorious End or Seance. These cards set up delayed triggers for a specific end step (not just "the end step," which will trigger every turn), and you can Sundial in response to the triggers to skip them permanently.

After minimal playtesting I'm finding this deck preforms best with a creature + 2 lands in starting hand and really needs a way to filter/draw cards.

I've made the following swaps to help make the deck more consistent:

:::::::::::

IN

• 4 Dragon's Rage Channeler - top deck filtering every time you play an extra turn or pact is very imPACTful you could say...
• 2 Gideon Blackblade

OUT

• 2 Glorious End - May adjust this, but 9 extra turn spells seems pretty reliable still.
• 1 Pact of the Titan
• 1 Giver of Runes - Protection/giving unblockable is nice but DRC is better

MaximumEdgeLord - Thank you, I’m glad you like the build! I actually had Sundials in the list prior but couldn’t decide between them and Madcap/Platinum Angel. I think adding Glorious End definitely makes Sundial more viable!

Also totally blanked on the Madcap/Baubble nombo, I was just trying to get cheap card draw going.

Thanks for the suggestions!
