This deck HIGHLY revolves around Enchanted Evening combos.

The overall point of this deck is to simulate a bourgeois experience. You gentrify EVERYTHING into an elitist enchanting neighborhood where you're both untouchable by law and physical violence. You nor anyone under your employ can be targeted by the law because you and your permanents are hexproof thanks to Aegis of the Gods + Witchbane Orb (which also removes any frivolous court cases you're currently dealing with) and that corrupt judge in your pocket Shalai, Voice of Plenty as you look down upon those peasants from your Privileged Position.

Your Commander (Kynaios and Tiro of Meletis) of course is a useless puppet, placed in power to manipulate and placate the peasants into believing that they'll be getting larger pay checks and promises of trickle-down economics, but in the end of course, it will just be a ruse to lure them into spending more money at faster rates so you can tax them higher with Aura Barbs and Enchanter's Bane.

You'll not be taken to court by filthy peasant mobs either thanks to exorbitant legal fees, making direct attacks from creatures far too expensive thanks to your growing safe zone Sphere of Safety (which can be doubled with with Mirage Mirror in case a fellow wealthy elitist pretends to be socialist or begins to eye your booming estate) and by spreading Pro-Bourgeoise Free Market Propaganda that benefits you and your cronies while building up Ghostly Prisons to oppress anyone who so much as assumes your deck isn't worth half of what you claim it is.

Once Enchanted Evening has gentrified the country and erased the filthy peasant squallors, any number of combos become available. You can simply steal everything everyone owns, including their land, with Aura Thief. If you're clever enough, perhaps, you'll hire a lawyer to take a fall for you and then give him a pardon afterwards... Fog Bank + Saving Grace + Aura Barbs.

While I don't advocate racism, perhaps, after everything is gentrified you might not prefer a certain colo- ahem* , type of locale. Why not just raze all the land and evict all of its occupants with Root Greevil or Echoing Calm (which is also good when those immigrant tokens start spreading like rabbits)?

Make the ultimate sacrifice to fool the peasants into thinking you've finally given up your high life for one of public servitude and publicly Traumatize and humiliate yourself once you've gotten what you need squirreled away where it can't be touched or seen and then Open the Vaults and unleash trickle-down economics as you give yourself the largest tax break of all. But just before the dust settles, get together with the boys Sun Titan and Venser, the Sojourner to put in work before cracking open a cold Elixir of Immortality before All Suns' Dawn.

Be sure to build the Wall of Denial and keep those untrustworthy invaders in a Fog Bank of confusion, it practically pays for itself with that zealotus Axebane Guardian and Overgrown Battlement.

Don't forget your own bourgeois brethren in this battle. The more you gentrify, the stronger Yavimaya Enchantress gets, especially when you supply her with Ethereal Armor and then give her legal impunity with Aqueous Form.
