Strategy

New plan: Get the Brunacruiser online. To aid in this I've added a plethora of 3 CMC creatures that work well with auras or allow me to control the board. I still feel there is room for improvement but It feels more stable than before.

Combos

Win-con Gambit

Laboratory Maniac + Mirror-Mad Phantasm + Seance

A 3 card gambit, setup like so: Seance is on the field, Phantasm is in the graveyard and Laboratory Maniac is NOT in my hand. Seance brings up Mirror-mad Phantasm and I pay 1B, shuffle the token into my deck and basically drop my entire library into my graveyard. On my next turn, Seance pulls up Laboratory Maniac and I draw for the win.
If Bruna, Light of Alabaster is in play beforehand, I get a turn to swing with all my enchantments (unblockable, 40+/40+ with double strike and infect, protection from colors, etc.) and win if my opponent doesn't interrupt the combo. If they do manage to stop Bruna, they still have to remove Seance or my Graveyard, or I win on the draw next turn.
I wouldn't attempt this unless I had a counter or two ready to disrupt their attempts to stop it.

Notable cards

Cephalid Constable

This card is ridiculous. Throw some enchants on him and suddenly my opponent has no board. No creatures, No Lands and that means no spells too. Less potent in the long game but powerful early.

Cephalid Broker

Like a slightly weaker Thirst for Knowledge you can use repeatedly.

Cards I want and why (Incomplete)

Greater Auramancy

Card speaks for itself. Throw an enchant on a creature and *poof*, you can't do much of anything to it short of a Wrath of God or the like. Best part is Bruna can still cheat auras all day long since she never targets the auras or herself with her ability.

Dovescape

Midgame board lock. Since I'll be cheating the maj-aura-ty of my auras from the graveyard/hand anyways, I can cast them to get some blockers and still put them on Bruna when she swings. Ideally I would cast this either on Turn 6 after a strong opener or after Bruna is out and I'm ready to swing for the win. It can also protect my gambit.

Grand Arbiter Augustin IV

Jesus this guy is amazing. Blue and White Spells are 1 cheaper each meaning U/W spells are 2 cheaper. And opponents pay 1 on everything. I love it.

Weathered Wayfarer

This card is great by itself. W, Tap and search for any land? How could this possibly get better?
Halimar Depths
ETB: Look at the top three cards of your library and put them back in any order. Great! Allows mee to fix the top of my deck after the shuffle. Ideally I would play Halimar after searching for that turn's land.

Tunnel Vision + Scry

Allows you to set up the bottom card to mill your entire deck.

Now I am terrible at EDH so any advice is welcome. I get the feeling that I'll need all the help I can get to make this work.
