A note on Angel of Wrath, you could use it on yourself to deck yourself out and get rid of all your lost souls, you should put a "Put Lost Souls in play" or something like that.

angel of Wrath seems kind of under-powered. I really like the others though.

Why is that so bad? And besides, how are you going to know if a lost soul is next? If you ask me, people should start attempting decks such as DC your own lost souls from your own deck. It would be difficult to pull off, but possible.

But, I would say you should either remove the second part of the angels ability or put a limit to it.

Also, with fiery darts, do you look at your opponents hand and discard it down to 8, or do you discard them at random?

It doesn't really matter, since you can target your own deck with the first ability, then it triggers the second ability, so you choose to discard the top card of your deck again, then rinse and repeat until your deck is gone, you can even use a recursion combo to keep your offense going.

Love Angel of Wrath, him + John Promo would make a good combo. John looks at your own deck , Angel of Wrath discards the lost souls on top of your deck when you know they are coming  :)

- I think fiery darts is a little to powerful. Maybe, discard a fort and/or a site. If there is none discard any two charactars.
I do like the art wourk on the cards

I'd suggest changing Fiery Darts to be 3/3, and discard from 7 cards.
It's a weapon so it should have numbers and orange enhancements have weak numbers, It's not very powerful as is and give it increased usability against things that aren't speed.

Angel of Wrath es #1 troll card.

WS + SoT + King Rehoboam -> choose Angel of Wrath as your own hero.  With Chamber up, discard your whole deck.  Four card combo, opponent is completely soul-locked, you still have both an offense and a defense.

Angel of Wrath looks pretty beastly, but also very risky.
