My thoughts on an Enchantments matter deck for current Standard. Currently playing/testing in MTGArena.

Your thoughts are VERY welcome!

Strategy

• "Gain 3 life" : triggers Griffin Aerie for a 2/2 flyer which is our offensive bread & butter. Revitalize is good value, Charming Prince ETBs for a 3 life gain trigger and since he's a creature, he can keep coming back for more. Mire Triton and the Alseid of Life's Bounty can combine for another 3 life if the latter can attack, while doubling to put stuff in our graveyard faster and/or protect Lurrus. Mire Triton also has Deathtouch making for great deterrence, that is until we gain so much life or recursion options we don't care anymore.

• Lurrus Companion: needs no introduction.

• Enchantments matter: Mire's Grasp and Dead Weight are superb creature removal. All That Glitters is the powerhouse to turn a Griffin into something that kills, giving us options to go wide or tall on creatures.

• Draw: Hateful Eidolon, engine. Nuff said.

Potential improvements?

Infernal Scarring is an optional I am yet trying out. Its not bad. Its not great, but it handily adds up to 3 power on all our 1/x creatures and triggers draw even without Hateful Eidolon. Eternal Thirst is another such aura that might be replaced, but the extra lifelink and counters are even more pressure and flesh out the rest quite well. *Eternal Thirst is LEGAL in Arena's Standard. These four would be the first contenders for an improvement, but I've not found them just yet.

Another Agadeem's Awakening   might not hurt in place of a Sanguine Indulgence, as the mana is generally not an issue at this point, and we might drop one or two Sanguines altogether? The recursion is nice to keep creatures on the table so Lurrus can focus on enchantments, but four seems an adequate number too.
