I am "Partially" on the fence of Angrath being with Team Bolas... but I feel like he's just pissed off that SOMEONE just brought him back into the same trap and he's just wanna hit ANYONE that's really responsible
It’s also important to remember that many of the “random” walkers probably don’t know what’s going on. So Angrath may show up and be courted by Bolas or he may just show up, try to leave and be unable to and get pissed again and just start amassing an army of his own with that stealing creatures magic from his previous card.
The Meaning of Life: "M-hmm. Well, it's nothing very special. Uh, try and be nice to people, avoid eating fat, read a good book every now and then, get some walking in, and try and live together in peace and harmony with people of all creeds and nations"

I prefer to think he's kidnapping zombies in an effort to punch his way home. I'm going to keep pretending this is the truth unless his signature card proves otherwise.
Shouldn't he be creating Minotaur tokens, if anything?

MTGS Wikia Article about "New World Order"
Every time I read a comment about "Well if this card had card draw/trample/haste/indestructible/hexproof/life gain...", I think "You're missing the point." They're armchair developer comments that fail to take into account the card's role in the greater Limited and Standard environment. No, it may not be as good as whatever card you're comparing it to. There's a reason for that. Not every burn spell is Lightning Bolt, nor does it need to be or should be.
PSA to everyone who keeps forgetting about the Reserved List:
You're on a website dedicated to talking about MtG. You're only a few keystrokes away from finding out what cards are on the Reserved List. You're also only a few keystrokes away from finding out why some cards on the Reserved List got foil printings in FtV, as Judge promos, or whatnot, as well as why that won't happen again. Stop doing this.
Why the title of Captain again? Hes not in Ixalam where he became a Pirate Captain of ncessity. I'm almsot sure hes not a captain in his home world, wich is where he came from. He hated Ixalam alot, so i bet he wouldn't want anything to do with it again.
I assumed he would be on Ravnica because he was hanging out with Huatali and reconciling over how they were complete jerks to each other until lighting bug let out its signal and Huatali is like "I must save people." and Angrath would be like "No you idiot don't-You know what fine I better follow you to make sure your idiocy doesn't get you killed."
Not like, fight for the guy that trapped him on Ravnica and will leave him trapped on Ravnica once he plucks out his spark.
My take on this is that Angrath came to Ravnica, and was either promised he'd be let go by Bolas (or Tezzeret) if he fought for them.
He's RB, which means 'long term checking to see if what this Bolas guy who looks like he's winning will keep his word' is not as likely as, say, Huatli.
Creatures you control have menace
-2 Amass 2 loyalty 5
I'm triggered. This is BS.
Creatures you control have menace.
Amass 2.
Not bad!
How can you follow such a tyrant like Bolas?
All the more reason to whip Bolas' ass with those red-hot chains.
How does it make sense? Last time we saw Angrath he wanted to go home and just live with his daughters in peace.

oh god i'm dying here
Prety much this, and also because of that he becomes mechanic suplement for amass that will probably have more things in BR.
Not only it is a flavor win (hin stealling control of the eternals) but also is a mechanic win (BR amass in limited)
Such is the way of libertarianism. Might makes right.
