Angel of Glory's Rise card art
Angel of Glory's Rise enters and immediately returns every Human from your graveyard to the battlefield — at seven mana that's a tall ask, but a single resolved trigger in a Human-tribal deck can reconstruct an entire board state in one shot. Kyler, Sigardian Emissary and Silvar, Devourer of the Free both run it as a one-card recovery engine that doubles as a win condition when the graveyard is full.

47.5% of decks · synergy 0.45

Kyler, Sigardian Emissary snowballs off the sheer number of Humans entering simultaneously — Angel of Glory's Rise reloads the whole squad at once, and every one of those bodies lands a counter on Kyler, turning a board wipe from a setback into a lethal comeback.

Silvar, Devourer of the Free // Trynn, Champion of Freedom

39.9% of decks · synergy 0.39

Silvar, Devourer of the Free // Trynn, Champion of Freedom plays a sacrifice-heavy Human loop, and Angel of Glory's Rise is the reset button that refills the battlefield after a mass-sacrifice turn or a wrath, letting the engine fire again immediately.

03
Katilda, Dawnhart Prime

Katilda, Dawnhart Prime

36.9% of decks · synergy 0.34

Katilda, Dawnhart Prime wants as many Humans in play as possible for mana generation, and Angel of Glory's Rise is the single card most likely to restore that critical mass after disruption.

05
Sigarda, Font of Blessings

Sigarda, Font of Blessings

17.0% of decks · synergy 0.14

Sigarda, Font of Blessings cares about Angels and Humans synergizing together, and Angel of Glory's Rise delivers on both counts — it is itself an Angel while its ETB reconstructs whatever Human infrastructure the deck had built.

Commander is where Angel of Glory's Rise does its best work — 99-card singleton means the Human graveyard fills up naturally over a long game, and a resolved seven-drop that returns a dozen bodies is the kind of effect that wins on the spot. In Legacy and Vintage it's legal but essentially irrelevant; seven mana is a number those formats refuse to reach, and any Human synergy at that cost has far faster alternatives. Modern can theoretically support it in a niche reanimator shell, but nothing in that format is actively building around it. Angel of Glory's Rise is, in practice, a Commander card.
