I have Eidolon in the maybe board. While it is a self replacing enchantress it is also the most expensive one. Can you elaborate on why it should go in and what it could potentially replace?

Greater Auramancy is an interesting card and I didn't know about it before. My concern though, is that the deck relies heavily on stacking enchantments. The second ability is actually a hindrance to Sigarda who already posses hexproof. The first ability is absolutely an asset but is covered by Sterling Grove who can also act as a tutor.

Yeah, you're right. I actually didn't know that there was a difference between Shroud and Hexproof, but there is. So, I don't think that Greater Auramancy would be great for the deck anymore.

I give the deck +1, mostly cause its like mine. I go for more enchantments then auras thought. Tell me what you think. http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/a-bad-btch-named-sigarda/

I think this deck would benefit from Spectra Ward and Eldrazi Conscription . They are both aura's than can end the game, and both are good at getting damage through. Spectra Ward can most likely replace Holy Mantle . Protection from all colors is very similar to Protection from Creatures, the only caveat being Steel Hellkite. Also, Spectra Wards text makes it even better in Enchantment decks. Eldrazi Conscription can replace Boar Umbra . I realize loosing Totem Armor and gaining 7 cost kinda hurts, but gaining +7/+7, Trample and Annihilator 2 is kinda better then Totem Armor, and you already have plenty of early game auras anyway, in my Opinion. +1 Upvote

Thank you for your input. Eldrazi Conscription is defiantly a card I've been on the fence about. I'm a bit paranoid about board wipes, so I love totem armour (I wish more of the white ones were playable). Spectra Ward is a card I'm not a fan of, it has a large downside in the fact that you can't stack any enchantments on it. I also have Flickering Ward in the deck and it not only fills the colour protection role but acts as on-demand card draw or angel tokens.

Got one enchantment that is an mvp in my opinion: Stony silence. I got a deck that have a lot in common with yours and most of the time i get that out, i block the other players a lot, since swords and mana stones are played a lot in my play group. Food for thought, suppression field does pretty much the same job.

Have you considered Umbra Mystic ? Together with Rancor or Brilliant Halo you can pretty much keep your commander from ever dying.
Alpha Authority is pretty good too, I know it overlaps with your commanders ability.

Thanks for checking out the deck.
I had Umbra Mystic in a previous build, I took her out in favour of Gaddock Teeg . Mystic was only ever a one off protection as she would get caught in wrath effects, Teeg serves as better protection by preventing most wraths and he can be tutored off of Green Sun's Zenith .
I find Alpha Authority just dosen't do enough. I already have four ways to make Sigarda completely unblockable and of those two pump her and one draws a card.

Definitely recommend Privileged Position . It's one of the staples of G/W enchantments. I mean, having enchantments paints a target on you, but at least PP protects you. It's pricey, though.

How about Academy Rector? Also if your worried about boardwips Indestructibility is an obvious go to. You could have Replenish to bring back all the auras you lost as a back up. I agree with Serra's Sanctum.

How's the voting going for Council's Judgment?
Without hexproof, how can you justify the heavy aura commitment? Don't you lose massive resources to a Swords to Plowshares? I'd prefer Sigarda, Host of Herons for what you're trying to do.

I've never had any issues with Council's Judgment. People usually pick the worst threats, sometimes it's a four for one.
The deck uses Sigarda and Dromoka as interchangeable generals depending on how many counters are at the table. It only takes one or two auras to get Dromoka into serious threat range.

I just want to say that I really like this deck (+1 for sure!). I'm not a fan of playing white, but this deck reminds me that white is probably the best color for enchantments after green, and that reason alone makes me want to play a deck like this.
Have you considered Exploration and Burgeoning? Those could really accelerate your mana base, and at the very least get you some 1-drop enchantments to quickly build up your board state.
October 12, 2015 1:42 p.m.
Have you tried any of the enchantment based accelerants? Namely Utopia Sprawl, Fertile Ground, Font of Fertility, and Cryptolith Rite? Auratog could also be a decent backup wincon seeing as how Rancor is already in the deck.

If you’ve liked having Beast Within, you may enjoy finding room for Generous Gift.

I also run a Sigarda voltron deck and it's one of my favorites and definitely one of my more tuned decks. I can't recommend enough running Eldrazi Conscription, Hall of Heliod's Generosity as well as protection from creatures auras like Holy Mantle & Spirit Mantle.
