Strategy
Radiant, Serra Archangel is a flying beatdown commander that doubles as a protection engine. You're playing her as a 6/4 flyer that swings in for consistent damage while her tap ability lets you grant herself protection from whatever color is threatening you most—perfect for dodging spot removal and keeping her alive through combat. She's not flashy, but she's resilient and scales well into the midgame.
The deck wants to build around flying creatures and ways to generate additional flyers so you always have a target for Radiant's tap ability. You'll lean into white's evasion, token generation, and anthem effects to turn your air force into a real threat. Since she has partner, you can pair her with a second commander to add more strategic depth—consider pairing with a blue control piece or another flying-focused color to round out your strategy. Your win plan is straightforward: load up your flying creatures, protect Radiant as needed, and bash for 20 damage in the air.

Key Synergies
Budget Build
Skip the expensive creature tutors and mana rocks; lean on efficient flyers like Spectral Rider, Empyrean Eagle, and simple token-makers like Bitterblossom or Raise the Alarm to fill your flyer count cheaply.
