Or their essence got fused and the returning Angel will be Brisela as Jeskai Angel with some visual features from both Angels. (not 4 arms and 2 heads and etc.)
Thanks for sharing the link. I was wondering when we will get information about Liesas return. It isn't totally clear but I seems to be a demonic pact or Angels behaving similar to demons in Innistrad and just reborn after being slayed. I can hope to get a new Gisela in the future than... Well it took Liesa a long time to reform but who knows.
The new cards are kind of meh but at least they support the coven mechanic. The white curse could be interesting. The new Angel let you choose opponent creatures, too. Could be a solid finisher or political card in white at a casual game. The Bastion Protector reprint is nice.
Celestial Judgement is a little expensive? Celebrate the Harvest could work... But for all those card you need a board with stuff. Somberwald Beastmaster is a nice enabler for well 7 mana but it is in green so maybe?
I hope that Heronblade Elite doesn't mean that Sigarda is dead, too. The scythe looks familiar.
Cool another mythic angel :). The cast AND the mana value limitation kills it for me. If it would have been attack 2 or less maybe. I don't know why but the recent white cards seems really fair.
To reuse this one you need to get this card from your graveyard to your hand and green has some options for that. A shame that blinking it does nothing.

If a spell would deal damage to you or another permanent you control, prevent that damage.
If a spell would deal damage to an opponent or a permanent an opponent controls, it deals that much damage plus 1 instead.

Like a smaller mini original Gisela working for spells only.
She is quite a powerful token generator for just 3 mana, tho. She would be totally bonkers if she were in Selesnya, where she can be played constantly at turn 2 and all the group buffing + token doubling effects are.
I like this kind of cards. White has some cards that benefits from creature entering the battlefield. God-Eternal Oketra or Cathars' Crusade. The Lion has the flexibility to bounce itself.
The one drop is a Human Cleric, tho. The 4-drop back is the spirit. I don't know. One drops in limited are tricky. They tend to fall behind to quickly and do little ( 1-2 damage). This card on the other hand has some recursion and is a flier later on. Both sites work well with equipment.
I think that Arlinns pack is involved. She is the alpha so the others will joined most likely. I think there was a story were she was able to hold back some werewolf from attacking Halana and Alena or somebody else... I am not sure.
I thought that demons in Innistrad didn't get 'resurrected'. After dieing their mana/essence gets recycled and used for a new Demon equaly/similar in power. The new demon has a new name and a different personality.
I have found this part in the Wiki-Article about Innistrad and the reason Avacyn imprisoned Demons instead of killing them:
In the early days of Avacyn's presence in Innistrad, long before the block takes place, the archangel sought to rid the plane of its demonic influences. Accompanied by her fellow angels, she challenged each demon she encountered to single combat, defeating and dispatching them one-by-one. However, since demons are beings composed of pure mana, their defeat only meant that their physical forms were shattered, their dark essence living on. Eventually the black mana would coalesce in another dark corner of the plane, and another demon would appear.
We know that Angels are made from pure mana, too. The question is: will white mana behave similar as black in Innistrad? We got some information about the creation of the sisters in the story where we heard the first time of Liesa. It seems like all 4 angels where created from the same source:
The three angels had a long and complicated relationship with Avacyn. Gisela, Bruna, and Sigarda weren't truly sisters, not in any way that the word described humans. But they had come from the same essence, the same dawn times, and they had fought the horrors of the world together for a very long time. Before Avacyn had first appeared, a thousand years ago, there had been four sisters, one the eldest and most powerful of the angels. Bruna. Gisela. Sigarda. And the one they would no longer name.
Assumption:
1. Because of the death of 2 sisters there were enough essence for Liesa to return. or
2. The sisters behave different than other mana construct on Innistrad because they origin is from some kind of special essence. So they literally resurrect after a long time. (very long time) or
3. Avacyn didn't kill her. She just bound her somewhere.
Well we will see. I am not sure how the eldrazification or fusion will play out if they want to return Grisela or Bruna.
Edit: What if the Celestus is recreating the very first dawn or a special event. The same event resulting to the creation of the 4 Angels long ago and therefore the dead Angels reappear or at least the longer dead one?
isn't it funny how liesa ability here is worded like a phyrexian praetor
*you get benefits*
*they get downfalls*
for this case you creatures comeback from the graveyard to your hand
the opponents lose them forever.
just got to super mega tin foil hat liesa is what the phyrexians are after in innistrad if we are to see a praetor here or crimson vow
Well I think her new card is more in line with Giselas original card Gisela, Blade of Goldnight. I find this fitting because both are the enemy colored sisters and one of the effect is white while the other one is from the other color. While Bruna, Light of Alabaster and Sigarda, Host of Herons had just one effect that fits both allied colors. I wouldn't make any conclusion to the phyrexians
Well I am interested to read how she is still alive. Even if she just pull out a trick she was absent for YEARS. I would like so see Sigardas reaction. Non of the sisters supported Avacyn on her crusade against her but Liesa didn't got any help either. Did she die but somehow got resurrected? I think demons in Innistrad get resurrected as different demons (but the same mana). Maybe it works similar for angels but over a longer time? Maybe we will see Bruna and Gisela in a return to return to return to... Innistrad again?
Celestial Judgement is a little expensive? Celebrate the Harvest could work... But for all those card you need a board with stuff. Somberwald Beastmaster is a nice enabler for well 7 mana but it is in green so maybe?

how? She looks nothing like her other card... But I like it.
I mean... yeah it would fit with the way there were throwing Angel characters away. Maybe something happens when all sisters are dead.
I am sure that Sigarda is trying to help Arlinn and Teferi out by causing a distraction for them.
Ah and I am sure that the card isn't the Czech version. Looks more like Chinese or something like that.
