There may even be multiple temptation tracks you could follow but well have to wait and see to know for certain
And its not like you can make a format without those hate cards, because an extra consistent linear deck with no answer is bad news
I found the following cards to deal with this: Aegis of the Gods/Metropolis Reformer: hexproof for yourself, which prevents opponents from targeting you with abilities/spells, amongst which are spells that force you to sacrifice your own creatures (which is one of the ways in which your opponents can still get rid of Avacyn, eventhough she's indestructible)
This creature puts Gates from the top of your library onto the battlefield, and then gives you all of the cards you look at with its ability if you control nine or more Gates
The second ability is a bit less frequently used, but its a great protection skill that allows you to evade a removal spell that intends to destroy one of your creatures with any sort of damage, be it targeted or a universal board wipe in MTG like Blasphemous Act
