A 5/5 creature with flying and vigilance for six mana is an excellent deal. A control deck is bound to look at this for a finisher at some point. The persist ability is just gravy, but it might occasionally be useful if you have to cast Wrath of God when it's already out - unfortunately, that does happen sometimes.

If this card wins the game, it's not because of its secondary ability. No, it's due to the fact that it's a persistent and vigilant 5/5 flier. The persist is pretty good on something so large, but Oona just does more for 6 mana, and If you can 3WWW, you can probably make room for casting Oona instead.
 
It's really good in limited though.

This card has great potential to generate card advantage, but Kithkin doesn’t need this card and the triple white rules out most other decks.


           
In limited, this card is a bomb. The 5/5 and 4/4 fliers are worth the cost alone, not even counting the recurring.

Constructed: 2

Casual: 4

Limited: 5

Constructed: The three white in its casting cost keeps for high level of play. It a little more expensive Serra, but with a nice ability. Somebody Wraths and she goes back to play and you refill your hand. Us it with yesterday's card Turn to Mist, fun tricks.

 

Casual: Everybody likes angels.

 

Limited: A 5/5 flyer with vigilance is just awesome. And she comes back from the graveyard too! Draft I would pick it first for white and if it was the last pack and not my colors I would hate draft her. Do not what to face out with her.

 

Overall Angels are the core creatures of Magic.

 

Constructed: 3

Casual: 5

Limited: 4
