Budget Synergy Finds5 cards
Cheap cards that may overperform because they fit this commander's game plan.
Lifegain AngelsSpeaker of the Heavens$2.27
Fits lifegain builds better than pure aggro builds.
Token and go-wide AngelsEntreat the Angels$3.25
Strong finisher, but simultaneous tokens do not count one another for Giada's replacement effect.
Cost reduction and drawHerald of War$3.67
Fits the Angel curve but needs combat to scale.
Token and go-wide AngelsValkyrie Harbinger$4.12
Lets Giada convert lifegain into more Angel bodies over time.
Protection and recursionCosmic Intervention$4.92
Can rebuild after a sweeper but does not preserve counters.
