Even with this limitation in mind, Knight of the White Orchid Knight of the White Orchid First strike

If the Angels hit the player with the most cards in their hand, you draw a card; if they hit the player with the most lands, you make a treasure; if they hit the player with the most life, then you gain three life.  Since the angels duplicate themselves with Myriad whenever they attack, just as long as you aren’t the player with the most life, cards in hand, and lands, you’ll likely be getting some benefit from them.
