I need some help w/ my Stand-alone Angels... I'm needing a good defense for them that will hurt/destroy the current meta offenses. Any suggestions?

Also, I'm not ditching my Angels so Plz don't ask me to.

I agree with SK. Also, if you build it right, Egyptian control (hand/deck discard, etc.) can mesh really well with similar special abilities that silver has (that one milling hero, for example).

I would recommend splashing some Genesis blue in with your angels, they would mesh well with your egyptians.

How exactly does blue mesh with Egyptians?

I already do that w/ Jacob (I may add another so I can use Pleading for a City, etc.)

I would add in Rachel to band to Jacob then. 

You can probably go without enhancements for them, but if you want to, you could use OoN, which works great with Jacob. 

Failed Objective definitely. Invoking Terror is a great repeatable battle winner with E. Magicians.

Should I run Evil Spirit or spear or Enslaved by Egypt, or Moses kills Egyptian?

Don't forget either Seven Years of Plenty or Seven Years of Famine.  Normally, I'd only recommend SYoP, but SYoF is pretty anti-meta.

They're both bad. MKE is fully negatable, and Enslaved by Egypt requires Egypt (a dead card) to be CBN, but Capture is easily protected from, and both of them only target one Hero in an era where banding is king.

Swift Horses is +3 and Egyptian Horses is +2 perhaps multiple times. Playing Wonders Forgotten off either is a very good play, and you have FO too. Even if you had no other EE's, they'd still go in for the extra drawing (which a slow offense requires to function).

Actually, most decks can't protect from Capture (ie. TGT, and Sam & Genesis Decks can't) Besides I still run Idols too so I can kill that problem of banding.

Most of those decks run blue Tassels to stop soul gen/capture.

Also, any suggestions of how to get rid of Sites/Fortresses w/ Angel/Egyptians?

Egyptians have spreading the mildew, but that's really only good if you have high places.

Interesting meta you play in.  If you want to use capture go ahead then.  On another note, I would recommend tassels in your deck.  It's a great anti-meta card because it actually does stop ECs from being captured, most importantly the self capture ones like TAS, who are prominent in meta decks.
