Got some Auras on my Gnarlid

Modern GWU (Bant)

-Orvos-


Maybeboard

Enchantment (4)


A quick Aura Deck i made. Its constantly being updated and evolving so tips are always welcomed!

Current Plans:

-1 Angelic Destiny +1 Judge's Familiar

Im also looking for something to replace Phalanx Leader with another 2 cmc creature but I don't know with what... any ideas?

Now for some explainations:

Alpha Authority : its got hexproof and makes it dang near impossible to kill whatever it is attached to.

Ethereal Armor : First strike and snowballs with my other enchantments and creatures.

Hyena Umbra and Spider Umbra : They are cheap enchants that protect against destruction. I understand that they are somewhat weak as far as power and toughness they give, but they really only serve as an extra life and as cheap enchants to snowball all my other creatures and effects

Rancor : the almighty enchant... blah blah blah... i know. I understand its great. I like it a lot as well BUT it does not have that heavenly halo over it in this deck. Totem Armor almost entirely makes the "return to hand" effect that Rancor has mute. On top of that Spirit Mantle trumps trample, end of story! That is why rancor is only 2x and the other "lesser" enchantments are 4x

Spirit Mantle : because like I said above, it trumps trample! It makes me able to block most anything with very little regard to the safety of my creature.

Aura Gnarlid : cause something else getting bigger and making this bigger for free is better than a pet rock with sunglasses. And good luck blocking it!

Unflinching Courage : lifelink and trample just in case something in this universe is able to block my creatures.

Judge's Familiar : this deck is very open to "Hi, I'm a blue/black player and I hate you're deck. I'm going to watch it drown in my counters and suffering spells." He is my protection until turn 3 or 4. This little guys entire purpose is to jump in front of that Unsummon or Lightning bolt and use his whole self to protect everything else. His sacrifice for the good of the Gnarlid.

Kor Spiritdancer : because... ok I don't need to explain this one...

Gladecover Scout : hexproof for G

Now for those pesky dual color lands. They are nice and they solve many problems but too many of them can put me behind by one turn very easy. Sadly another reason some of the really nice and fancy ones aren't in my deck is cause I can't afford them. So please understand that when you are making suggestions.
