JakeSlytherclaw7 Hah! I like the way you build sir. I'll leave a comment on your deck.
Dorfrat I did have it in here, but it was almost never getting cast because by the time I would have enough mana to cast it, I either already won, had better things to play, or all of my creatures were dead.

Ran this deck with a different sideboard at FNM on 11/9. I went 3-0-2. If I didn't draw with my last two opponents, to split prize, I would have gone 4-1-0. I would have lost to American Control. The sideboard I ran was:
2x Brave the Elements , 3x Fiendslayer Paladin , 3x Glare of Heresy 3x Last Breath , 3x Pithing Needle , 1x Renounce the Guilds

Dorfrat Good thought. Esper usually puts the shaft on me hard with walkers and Aetherling, so the Needle would be a great addition.

Soul Tithe for your sideboard could be something to consider.

would a Sphere of Safety help this deck?
it might not help tremendously, but it's at least worth looking at

somensjev Afraid not. This is an aggro deck and the top of my curve is 3 (with the exception of a bestowed Hopeful Eidolon ). By the time I have 5 mana, I want my opponent to already be dead. If I do get to 5 mana and they aren't dead, I'm probably playing against a control deck, meaning I'm going to have very few enchantments on the field anyways (because most of them are for creatures only), plus they usually only attack with one creature like AEtherling or Obzedat . Control is basically the only bad match up I have. Everyone else I can usually blitz or grind out.

would a Privileged Position in your sideboard help against some control?

I like this but i recommend putting green in there, really good green cards in standard Loxodon Smiter ; Unflinching Courage , Advent of the Wurm and Selesnya Charm not counting the awesome green enchament creature that gives it reach!

Petro_std this actually did used to be a G/W deck. I removed green because I wanted maximum mana consistency and right now, with Sunpetal Grove gone, that leaves Temple Garden alone. And while Loxodon Smiter is one of my favorite beaters ever, in terms of efficiency and damage, Fabled Hero far outshines him, especially in an enchantment heavy deck for heroic triggers.
I might take another look at green in the future if we get better mana fixing, but right now my T1/2 plays are too important to make to risk another color, and my deck would shift closer to midrange.

Aerokid could you could help me with my selesnya version of this deck:
I could really use your help!

pingpongball120 already turned down Sphere in an earlier comment and the deck description. As for the angel, by the time I have 5 mana, the game should be ending.

I like your deck alot. What about Judge's Familiar for against the control match-up?
Would you mind giving my deck a look? I'm trying to cut down my curve, but I'm having troubles deciding what to cut and replace them with. One Nation, Under God.

Aerokid, I love this deck. I've been working on an Azorius deck very similar to this, but it lacked the focus you have in this. I hate to bother, but would you be able to look it over? I'm actually pretty temped to make this deck, but I'd appreciate your input

Rocknj066 Ultimately, murdering one of my own creatures to possibly counter a spell isn't worth it. I try to hit as fast as possible, drawing the game out only works against me.
JustMeHunter Why are there dead darkspawn everywhere?? "Enchantment!"

Think of it as a finisher you can drop turn one and have it stick. A flyer that is beefed up with a single ethereal armor while your other creatures get the rest of the enchantments is nothing to laugh about. There isn't that many fliers being played. But I do understand where you are coming from. Very rarely do I blow my bird up

I'm pretty stoked about Born of the Gods coming. A brand new 1 drop as well as a 3/1 for 2, AND they're both enchant creatures. Any suggestions on what to drop? I'm thinking maybe taking out some heroic, and possibly Chosen by Heliod simply because it isn't aggressive enough (even though the draw is wonderful).

Drop some if not all phalanx for born of the gods cards as well as the chosen by Heliod

Hellriding_Spitfire Lifegain is good, but Ordeal goes boom, and that's bad because this deck is all about Ethereal Armor .
Rocknj06 He's great for converting to weenie rush, but I guess it would be the first thing to go in favor of more enchant creatures.

Do you think there is a way to incorporate Indestructibility or is it too high mana cost?
