If it's bant, use any blue unblockable creature like Invisible Stalker. If it's EDH, obviously Rafiq is a must.

Also, Pattern of Rebirth is good on a creature that people will want to kill. Once it dies, you can fetch an Avacyn or something else super broken. I use it in my Uril EDH.

A good card is Stoic Angel.

So someone online said exalted doesn't stack is this true? Cause the game says it does.

no its not true, it stacks

Exalted basically means "when a creature attacks alone, it gets +1/+1".  So each instance of exalted will trigger seperately when a single creature attacks.  So if you have 3 instances of exalted your attacking creature will get +1/+1 three seperate times giving your attacker +3/+3 when everythings done resolving.

Honestly there are better mechanics than Exalted. And with Commander being as random and complex as it is you better off abandoning Exalted as a deck idea.

It's for modern and like that one angel other creatures you control get exalted so if already has it would that stack on top of it is what I meant.

Still there are much more powerful things than Exalted. In gameplay despite the Exalted buffs you'll still only be attacking with one creature and that's not as much power as swing full foce. In Modern with it's meta the way it is you'll be rushed and out aggroed while you're still setting up.

I don't mean to insult you or your decks, I'm just speaking from a competitive view point. But as for cards that would help your deck Stoic Angel, Prophetic Prism and maybe Captured Sunlight.

aven squire and sublime angel on the field

aven has its own exalted trigger, sublime gives it another.  so now aven has 2 instances of exalted, and as mentioned above both will trigger seperately when a creature attacks, ie aven will give +2/+2

rafiq of the many, knotvine paladin, sublime archangel, battlegrace angel, finest hour, three dreams (to get eldrazi conscription and arcanum wings to put on a knotvine paladin, then use priviledged position, witchbane orb and fountain watch with avacyn angel of hope... and a pile of little creatures... tough to beat, especially with akromas memorial on the board

most of those exalted creatures also grant abilities to other creatures if they attack alone... making them doubly useful

"Honestly there are better mechanics than Exalted. And with Commander being as random and complex as it is you better off abandoning Exalted as a deck idea."

i have a exalted E.D.H. deck that can potentially deal out more than 100 damage on turn 6 (not counting prior damage or life-gain)... picture this... a 26/26 creature with trample, doublestrike, anihilator2, and protection from the color of your choice until end of turn, lifelink and can attack 2x in a turn (as long as it attacks alone), the second time it is attacking, it is a 32/32
possibly be indectructible and unblockable with shroud later on in the game
this deck... it has never lost 1 vs 1, and has only ever lost when there is 3-4 people allied vs just me, never tried vs 2 people at the same time, but i didn't win vs 3 (came close), as they saw me as the threat, and killed me before i had my set-up powerful to take them all down
note, dont forget stuff like sol ring and mana vault (for E.D.H.)

Exalted is an epic mechanic...sure there are DIFFERENT mechanics, but just because one person won't be powerful with it doesn't mean it's bad... exalted has proven itself as a competitive choice time and time again ... one can debate all one likes....but FACT is fact...TL;DR: Try using actual proof of something before throwing out a negative comment...just saying something is bad is easy ...proving something is bad is another matter...Exalted has been in Tournaments... so honestly calling it bad is like calling Call of Duty a bad game series..it may not be to my liking...but the fact remains it sells well, has some of the best gameplay for it's genre, and not a damn thing I SAY can change FACT...so either show some proof, or state it is your personal OPINION ...FACT>OPINION

I'll admit I didn't have proof but I will say that I was speaking out of my own observations IRL.

Exalted is very underrated. When alara was in standard original, Exalted was the strongest mechanic in standard. Before M14 came out, I top 8'd multiple competitive events including a 5k, PTQ, and "Mox" tournament with a Red Black White exalted aggro deck.
))EDIT: I fogot to mention this was a time in Standard when bant auras fell out, and the only decks that you really faced were Jund and Reanimater, it was just a very well positioned rougue deck for a month or so.)) While I don't recommend playing it in modern, it is fun, and can work if lucky. The trick is to have your exalted guy have some sort of evasion or trample.

The only exalted "combos" I can really think of:
Sovereigns of Lost Alara + Eldrazi Conscription, or another enchantment depending on board state.

This requires one heck of a board state, and probably only feasible in casual
Finest Hour + Lots of Exalted + Double Strike + Equipped Sword of Feast and Famine + Kessig Wolf Run

For your Sublime Archangel question
If I have Knight of Glory and Sublime Archangel, attack with just Knight, it gains +3/+3 until end of turn.

Copy paste from the gatherer itself.
"7/1/2012 Whenever a creature you control attacks alone, count the number of instances of exalted among permanents you control. After those abilities resolve, that's how many times the creature will get +1/+1."

My black pauper consistently pulls a turn four kill with Duty-Bound Dead-> Plague Stinger ->Unholy Armor.
Infect with exalted is THAT disgusting. 4 turn, two mana, and entirely commons. Imagine what you could do with rares.

I just have to disagree with exalted being an inferior mechanic. 4x sublime arch-angel, ajani, caller of the pride with mikeus the lunarch is a VERY dangerous thing to behold. Run it B/W with lost soul. Still think exalted is inferior? I attacked with that exact combo with a lost soul that was 203/203 with some annoying enchantments. If you really wanted to go insane with it, run it U/G/W with juniper order ranger x4, sublime x4, mikeus the lunarch, run whispersilk cloak. Do something about that knowing I have counters hiding up my sleeve. Exalted is VERY powerful if you know how to use it.
