I have been waiting for this to come out for WEEKS after seeing the spoiled cards for this upcoming set. Once I laid eyes on Eriette of the Charmed Apple I knew I had my next commander idea. Welcome to the world of Eldraine, full of fantasy, wonder, and enchantment. But for us? It will always be about control.

This deck centers around one thing: enchant your enemies' creatures and reap the benefits. Almost all of the Aura enchantments in this deck are meant for enemy players. They don't fully negate them like Pacifism, but they will hinder them. One way or another. If it's goading them with Ghoulish Impetus, Martial Impetus, or Parasitic Impetus, making them not able to block with Clawing Torment or Gelid Shackles, or making them someone else's problem with Vow of Duty, Vow of Malice, or Vow of Torment. Each Aura will be able to target pesky creatures and make it someone else's problem all the while Eriette of the Charmed Apple second ability sucks the life out of everyone.

So, with all the scary things out there, I definitely wanted to put in some protection. For our enchantments, ourselves, and our commander.

Enchantments: Karmic Justice and Greater Auramancy. Karma's a ho and you need some protection if you want Eriette to start stinging.

You: Norn's Decree, No Mercy, Sphere of Safety. These will lock down any attempts at attacking you and keep the attention towards fighting each other.

Commander: Spectra Ward, Holy Mantle, and Gift of Doom are all defaulted to keep Eriette alive. You could use Red Ward, Blue Ward, or Green Ward to protect her OR you could be cheeky and use them against someone else for extra politics. Your choice.

There are three win-conditions.

  1. Test of Endurance
  2. Felidar Sovereign
  3. Aetherflux Reservoir

The one you want to focus on the most is Test of Endurance. Since it is an enchantment, Academy Rector, Idyllic Tutor, Vampiric Tutor, Demonic Tutor, or Enlightened Tutor all can be used to find it. You could also use the tutors to find the others. You will be gaining life so reaching 50 will not be a problem.

I've been counting down the days for this set release for a while and I'm really excited its finally here. As always, let me know what you all think and what suggestions you have. I am all ears. Thank you in advance and enjoy!
