@justme I'm not entirely sure. There is some competition between my LGS and another one, and we haven't had enough people for a properly sanctioned event for the past couple of weeks. Since I only started playing standard a month ago, I'm still guessing on the meta.

ok. for control Savage Summoning is good. for aggro Blind Obedience

I would suggest substituting Naturalize with Sundering Growth . It has synergy with the token from Selesnya Charm although playing some blue might make it tougher to cast.

With this many enchants you could run a couple Sphere of Safety at least against some more aggro decks

cool deck, I like how it truly is an aggro enchantment deck, where as I feel like most bant is aggressive but not really an embodiment of a truly aggressive deck. I kinda like midrange for fun or casual, but speed is a must for competitive, +1

I am with Felixlives I run a few protection decks like Making Them Pay to Play! and Sphere of Safety really aggravates people!

Personally, I've had fair luck with running Pacifism in my sideboard due to the fact that it can stop a very large and very scary Mistcutter Hydra in its tracks if you get caught behind the curve.

Perhaps Rootborn Defenses in SB against control decks? we all hate those verdicts... also mebbe one Thassa, God of the Sea for the scry?

raithe000 I really like this deck. You know how powerful ethereal armor is. Do you mind helping me out with my deck?
I could really use your help.

Built most of this deck yesterday, just having trouble buying the expensive shock lands! This deck is pretty amazing its so funny to one turn have a 1/1 with hexproof then three turns later you have a 9/9 that's unblockable and has lifelink! Haha +1 from me

I have a question though? What about people with glaring spotlight or stuff that destroys enchantments?
January 13, 2014 5:19 p.m.
Haha I guess that's true! One of my friends plays a lot of removal and he's sorta of gearing towards stopping this deck because he feels he should be the best player out of us. He makes me angry I may be playing a little more counters
January 13, 2014 7:24 p.m.
@ ike_ortiz I haven't really run into anyone running glaring spotlight or enchantment removal, except for Polis Crusher , which is why I have Rapid Hybridization in the SB. Run more counterspells main deck if you are getting targeted (remove the Detention Sphere s for them, I guess.
January 13, 2014 7:39 p.m.
Yeah thanks for the feedback my friend is just being a jerk the worst he can do is glaring spotlight then doom blade but hopefully I won't run in to extreme problems. Thanks for the deck it's great!!!!!

Have you considered throwing in two of each of the guild charms for possibly the hopeful eidolon and two other cards? @raithe000 (I probably did that wrong)

You need to have double brackets around someone's name if you want to "tag" them:

Yay for Bant Hexproof! +!
What about God-Favored General ? Give him Aqueous Form and he'll make two enchantments per turn for the rest of the game.

i feel like taking out the Fleecemane Lion for Hero of Iroas is probably a sound plan. the lion is a vulnerable piece for you, until you invest all your mana to monstrify it, and it is a dead draw if you have a Gladecover Scout on the field. hero provides a passive and aggressive bonus, if you load him up, he gives a pseudo Ethereal Armor , and the cost reduction is relevant with your chosen auras, meaning he isn't as much of a dead draw with a scout down.
also personally i would recommend Trollhide over Mending Touch on the sideboard, Trollhide is an aura, provides a nice buff, and is re-useable.
January 23, 2014 11:37 a.m.
I second Baycer though Fleecemane Lion is amazing once monstrous and you dont want too few creatures because then you have nothing to enchant. But definitely trollhide over the 1shot regen
January 23, 2014 12:54 p.m.
what about Hidden Strings to play even more enchantments.
January 23, 2014 12:58 p.m.
@Baycer and jias3333 I agree about the Hero of Iroas (I thought about it, and realized that Fleecemane kept dying in most matchups) but I'm not sold on the Trollhide . The issue is that I only really need 1 shot regen. While the buff is nice, the only reason I need to regenerate is to dodge a Supreme Verdict, and after that I rarely need to dodge another one. Against a turn 4 Supreme Verdict, If I'm not playing first, Mending Touch is far better than Trollhide, and if I am playing first, it's not particularly better.
@zaitzer This deck already has issues with over comitting to the board. Not going to make it worse.
