BrianHOST
It's in the Commander set if you look at Angel.
ChewieHOST
The Darksteel Angel?
BrianHOST
Darksteel Angel, yeah.
ChewieHOST
Oh, 'cause you just said Darksteel, and there are three cards with Darksteel in it, so.
BrianHOST
Oh, really? Okay.
ChewieHOST
Yeah, the Juggernaut and the Citadel are reprints.
ChewieHOST
What does the Darksteel Angel do? 9 mana, flying-

ColeHOST
And that's all you need.
Rachel WeeksHOST
All right, let's move on to this next one, which is also a very expensive artifact.
Josh Lee KwaiHOST
Yeah, it is Darksteel Angel.
Josh Lee KwaiHOST

In the kind of decks that are putting Platinum Angel into play, they're usually cheating it into play, reducing the amount of cost, or they're reanimating it from their graveyard.
Josh Lee KwaiHOST
Yeah.
Rachel WeeksHOST

Josh Lee KwaiHOST
Instead? Yeah.

TomerPANELIST
Darksteel Angel, nine mana colorless 4/4 artifact angel, flying and indestructible.
TomerPANELIST
You can't lose the game, and your opponents can't win the game, and oh, your creatures you're, you control can't have -1, -1 counters put on them as well.
