This + Pariah's shield + 2x Privileged position ( they protect each other and everything else) = invincible

colourless creautures are an artifact color

This card DOES work with Concerted Effort. All you need is another creature with vigilance, and you're good to go. Since it is a world effect, ALL your cards gain ALL of Flying, Vigilance, First Strike, Double Strike, Fear, Landwalk, Protection From, ect. The only things you don't get are Haste, Flanking, Bushido, and other creature type specific abilities.

Concerted Effort works fine.. It doesn't target (please read the rules of magic before you make comments on what others are saying). And I don't think the other person meant the enchantment vigilance, I think they meant the keyword vigilance, which with concerted effort, all you would need is another creature with vigilance on it. Excellent combo and fun to setup. Good card in the right deck.

IF you have 6 mana out to play the Pristine, then why not go for 7 and play Akroma's Memorial. Its an Artifact, yes, but its ability makes ALL your creatures. Pristine only has Protection which means: Damage, Enchant / Equip, Block, and Targeting. Akroma's Memorial makes Pristine not have to worry since its a global, no target enchant or equip. Now, you want funny. Run that combo with Akroma Angle of Wrath and a March of the Machines or another way to make the Memorial a creature. Pristine is unstoppable, and you've two Akroma's going after your opponents, ones just a memory though ;D There are to many Global Enchants that will help Pristine, so why not make her a 5 Star?

All of the cards you're naming (Serra's Blessing, Vigilance) won't work on this card because it has protection from white. It is unaffected by those card's abilities. A better way to make this work would be to have a creature, enchantment, or artifact, which would untap target creature at any time. Since Pristine Angel has no color protection when tapped, such a card would work just fine.

"this card + vigilence + Concerted Effort = Game Over " LOL. If you didn't notice, the Pristine Angel has prtection to ALL the colors and artifacts. Vigilance would be automatically burried after enchanting it to Pristin Angel, and Concerted Effort would havo no effect on him. :) Tis card is good when it comes to defending, though it can block only one creature. However, when attacking it isn't good enough.

Throw this down with Serra's Embrace or Gustcloak Saviour and your good to go!

Where i'm from, we play 5-color 250 card format called highlander where you can only use one copy of any non-basic land card. There are a few cards where if you play it, your opponent just scoops. Pristine angel is WAY up there if you can untap it. There are only 2 cards that make this kinda useless; another Pristine Angel, and a vesuvan shapeshifter.

I love this card SO much I have four of these in my white deck and, of course some cards are going to be able to demolish this, but does it really matter? It's a ridiculous card in its own respect, but used with serra's blessing just makes it freaking ridiculous.

this card + vigilence + Concerted Effort = Game Over

  -- By Greg Marinez from Michigan on October 13, 2006

Pristine Angel seems to be one of my favorite cards when paired up with Concerted Effort from the Ravnica block. However this card can hold its own even without its Ravnica companion. Another good trick to using this card is to pair it up with a deck full of cheap instants. Attack, anyone does anything and pow, an instant untaps it, thus causing their spell to fizzle, plus your instant's ability will still resolve. All in all this is a great card, too bad it's cycled out of limited, eh?

this is a great great card and whoever says this sucks well listen to this if you splash blue and have whispers of the muse this card is invulnerable great combo works well in my angel deck

Or you know a innocent blood could wipe this thing out with one mana. Or bater in blood for 4 plus another creature. Or havoc demon. And you might say ill have other creatures out though. Festering goblin and Carrion feeder will definately put the hurt on.

  -- By nick from iowa on September 08, 2006

i have 4 pristine angel in my white deck and i can tell you its the best card ever. unfortunatly i aint got any serra's blessing but with this on play, worship, ivory mask to counter things as demonic idic youre virtualy invincible. and even more..keeping second sunrise in your and is the best way to wreck a wrath of god...about one of the only thing in global enchantments that can kill a pristine angel untaped

  -- By lokan08 from st-therese qc canada on October 04, 2005

This is just an overall awesome card. I gave it a rating of 4 because it needs one card to make it invincible. I'l let you guys figure that out for yourself. For you vet's out there, you know what I'm talking about. If played right, it's basically an instant win depending on the deck your facing.

GET A GRIP ITS ONLY "INVINCIBLE" WHEN ITS UNTAPPED

  -- By Anonymous from TEXAS on December 30, 2004

oh definently it is top noch this card only suffers from colourless creautures and spells and i've got a few of them

  -- By Tama Jet from canberra ACT australia on October 23, 2004

This is an incredibley good card. This card is only a few of the angel cards that I need! With this card you could be pretty much invincible, and only for a casting cost of 6!

  -- By Ben Squires from richmond, VA USA on August 21, 2004

Really, Really useful card for any white deck.
