Basically a strong, budget version of the U/W Aggro Enchantments deck. This deck is really cheap to build and can perform fairly well against most decks, and with a little bit of luck it can even win against bad matchups with a good Daxos of Meletis exile.

I tried to keep the Return to Ravnica block cards to a minimum, which is why I put ]]Gift of Orzhova]] on the mabyeboard, however Ethereal Armor is just too good to pass upon.

There is not much to explain about this deck, its a classic heroic aggro deck that wants to buff up its creatures to a maximum amount as fast as possible.

The cards that mostly shine in this deck are Daxos of Meletis and Battlewise Hoplite. Daxos' ability makes it so that once he gets any of the decks enchantments on him he becomes unblockable, and with a little bit of luck, you can either heal for a big amount, or deny your opponent a very important card. On top of that, you might just be able to use that card! The hoplite is just that good because of the scry addition to his ability. Each time you enchant him (or target him with one of your instants) he also scries one card so you can always get to that extra enchantment you need.

The deck definitely needs more testing and im open to any and every critisism!
