I'd drop the Birds of Paradise for 4x Arbor Elf then drop the Herald of the Pantheon for 4x Utopia Sprawl and you'll have much more ramp and it will be much more explosive much earlier. 4x Fertile Ground can also increase your odds and ramp tempo.

You aren't that far from just making G/W Enchantress. By adding in a couple more Eidolon of Blossoms and maybe Verduran Enchantress you can increase the speed of your deck a ton. I've been messing around with G/W Enchantress ever since Starfield of Nyx was released. This is what I've come up with: A Modern Take on Enchantress. Feel free to look it over for ideas if you like.

hey buddy, awesome deck!

Im building something very similar; http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/t0kens-constellat1on/

have you considered using Idyllic Tutor? It's awesome for enchantments deck!

I would say that I prefer Kruphix's Insight over Idyllic Tutor even though you can draw/tutor 1 specific card, you are usually way better off with just drawing 3 cards and mill yourself, as you can sometimes just draw 2 cards and mill away the Sigil of the Empty Throne on purpose even though you are able to draw it. (Combos back with Starfield)You also get to miss out on Land topdecks later on

I don't believe that you need that much mana acceleration. Maybe drop some Birds of Paradise for some Sphere of Safety, or Story Circle.

I would also suggest Runed Halo instead of Nevermore.

Neoparshat says... #10

Well I thought Nevermore would be better against combo decks like Twin, Sphere of Safety seems nice, but I thought Ghostly Prison would achieve almost the same, just earlier/ more efficient against Aggro. I actually don't think I need the Sphere of Safety for lategame, just need to survive early because once you have board with this deck it is difficult to lose.

Nevermind, upon further testing I have realised that card draw makes up for the lack of enchantments.

January 9, 2016 8:38 a.m.

Neoparshat says... #12

Lack of enchantments? The deck consists of 100% enchantments except the carddraw through Kruphix's Insight, could you explain what you mean? :3

Neoparshat says... #13

Oh, and the ramp creatures, but that's all there is to it at the moment.

ModernMage says... #14

Sorry, I have been working on mono-white enchantments, which runs 30 enchantments give or take: Fortress of Solitude (Please Help!). I have been trying to figure out which is faster. The two are very different, mine being more of a pillow fort with yours trying to explode with Kruphix's Insight.

How about Banishing Light instead of Stasis Snare?

January 13, 2016 8:05 a.m.

Neoparshat says... #16

I actually explained the choice of Stasis Snare in my description deckbros, I wanted at least 1 kind of instant removal in this deck, otherwise you sometimes have to skip a turn doing nothing in establishing board/spending mana , also it is great against Splinter Twin- a deck that a lot of players at my locals like :o Banishing Light isn't needed because of Oblivion Ring in my opinion.

OK

ModernMage says... #18

The Demonic Pact idea is really cool. Try out the splash.

January 14, 2016 10:52 p.m.

ModernMage says... #19

Cool combo for your splash idea Necrogen Mists + Starfield of Nyx Discard enchantments and then play them for free, while your opponents have no cards in hand.

gonna make an orhov deck

ModernMage says... #21

what do you think My Evil Lair (Orhov Prison)

Dragoncraft01 says... #22

Have you considered Eidolon of Rhetoric? You're only going to be casting one spell a turn anyway, a 1/4 body is out of lightning bolt range, is an ok blocker, and is good vs the current aggressive meta. also, Nyx-Fleece Ram is decent sideboard vs burn, if you want

If you are bringing this modern you probably want your Greater Auramancy mainboarded. Modern is rampant with removal and artifact/enchantment hate. You will lose your starfield in seconds otherwise.

Neoparshat says... #24

Nyx-Fleece Ram was in my standard Starfield but idk about it in Modern, Leyline of Sanctity and Courser of Kruphix usually seal the deal, I guess i will main Greater Auramancy considering the hate, ye

February 9, 2016 8:39 a.m.

If you use Greater Auramancy you give your enchantment shroud, not hexproof, so you can't kill your Demonic Pact with it's own ability.
