My favorite card, and the very first I ever pursued with fanatic passion. I was 13 when this card came out, so I didn't have a credit card to buy it online. I just went after packs and packs. Finally, after I bought nearly a booster box worth of Legions cards, I found it. I lost her since then, but just that I had her at one point is enough for me. And I'll be getting Divine vs. Demonic so I can have her again.

A great looking card on paper, but isn't very practical. The sheer number of keywords on this card made me boggle at it when i say it for the first time. Still, it looks nice sitting next to my Phage the untouchable in my rare book.

One of Timmy's best friends. Best color protections, too.

Everyone has a pet creature card. This isn't mine, but I can get behind those for who it is. Absolutely one of the icons from a great time in Magic's past.




Oh yes, and 5/5

This is an awesome card to have in a reanimator deck. Having Akroma in in play by turn 3 or 4 is always a kick in your opponent's face.

generally by the time I have enough mana to play her all of my creators are a 100,000,000 with protection from pretty much everything and come back from the grave the instant they die but I run her anyway just because she is so cool.

Oh yeah? Well, can your Baneslayer be your EDH general? I thought not. Sit down.

There is only two (three kind of) angels Akroma can't kill, and they're not good cards in comparison so yes, Akroma is the queen of Angels. Akroma doesn't kill Iona, Shield of Emeria. She kills her. Akroma doesn't kill Deathless Angel. If Peace is chosen for Archangel of Strife then Arch kill Akroma.

Give me one good reason why she is not good. She's arguably one of the best creatures in Magic's long history. The 8 mana could be a turn-off for some, but otherwise she's one fantastic beatstick. She's fantastic enough, even, to inspire three other notable cards: Akroma, Angel of Fury, Akroma's Memorial, and Sphinx of the Steel Wind.

5/5 all day, every day.

Forever and always, favorite magic card of all time.
Love the art, the flavor text, the abilities, everything. Great card, and an icon of Magic.

I still have the one I pulled in spring '03. It was the first rare I nearly wet my pants to get.

That's right, she has all the keywords, even the ones that haven't been invented yet

Make a fine EDH general. White is a strong mono color. They can deal with any permanent, and are good at protecting their own.

@gtamaster503: Iona is amazing. And the other angel Akroma can't kill is Avacyn, Angel of Hope. Both are far stronger than Akroma.

Akroma does have the best flavour text ever though. EVER.

Phage and Akroma probably would have been the mythic rares from legions if that rank had been around at the time

To animate her, you don't use a black enchantment. They fall off, and she goes right back where she came from. (You could waste a card doing Sleight of Mind, or something, but you won't.) In a regular deck, if you haven't already lost by the time she shows up to the party, your opponent deserves what's coming. Pretty intimidating, but still mortal. Iona and Avacyn are dumb. Linvala, too, if you're keeping score. Old angels forever. 5/5
