Ok cool

if u use the riker maneuver on an enchantment creature hem Grim Guardian hem it is an infinite combo or nearly infinite because your opponents life isnt

tiassa Skybind only works on NON-Enchantment's ;) IF that were the case then Skybind would be the silliest card ever made lol :P

o suppose it would be stupid otherwise thanks for telling me

Fun stuff. i've found in my search for brewing an enchantment themed deck has me with brews that are pretty clunky. i'm having a bit of success with this one, it has some of the same elements as your deck which is pretty fun. But i'm trying to get it up to snuff as most of the people that play at our local stores run net-decks...

Anyways good luck on your list, i would recommend upping your land count for sure, the quicker you can get your Sphere of Safety out the better. Also i would look at using some search cards like Kruphix's Insight to search for the enchantments you want. Also i would think about trying out Auramancer it has synergy with your Skybind so you can refill your hand from your yard.

Bow down before the enchantment beard!

sk00kes I've actually found that Sphere of Safety isn't even a necessary card in here. In the games i've played (Just with friends) i didn't even get one on the board (Just due to not drawing it, surprisingly)

Things that really shined were the Underworld Coinsmith and Grim Guardian 'sThey worked extremely well to keep my life topped up and theirs down.

As well as Doomwake Giant . If that last's 1 turn with this deck it's pretty much over for your opponent's battlefield.

And the mana WAS a big issue, But using Mana Bloom and Karametra's Favor it's been working admirably. Maybe adding in a couple more favor's would help, But i've found good success with this combination.

Thanks for the ideas though.Im thinking of making a Enchantment dredge deck using Kruphix's Insight so i've had that in mind for a while ;)

Have you considered Angel of Serenity ?
It's probably not necessary here, being a win-more card really since it's so hard to cast.
But just think about the synergy with Skybind ...

Damn dude, That would be fucking sah-WEET.

But that 7 CMC though. =(

what about something like Trostani's Summoner

too much mana i think but maybe applicable

It's a neat idea, But if i were to go with that high of a CMC cost i'd go with Angel of Serenity

you need some more answers to a rush deck , I found it very slow

I hate to say it, but the only thing to make this deck that much better would be (in your sideboard at least) a Nevermore or three (assuming its legal in standard, or that you care if it isn't) to help deal with Tranquility (people always ask "who plays with those!" but I know a lot of people that do), Naturalize or Disenchant . Other than that, +1.

Nah, This is a standard deck. There's not much Tranquility there ;)

But there is an enchantment version of that via Extinguish All Hope that I might throw in here =)

I've added in King Macar, the Gold-Cursed to the mix to use with Karametra's Favor

I'll update the deck tonite when im hope from work

If this deck had more black (devotion wise) you could run some Gray Merchant of Asphodel s that would be fun to abuse with Skybind

Alas, it not black heavy at all. But I do abuse them very well in a discard deck I have

What do you plan on doing when Ravnica block cycles out? The metaphysical Beard must be trimmed and edited.

Yeah, I'm gonna rehash this deck when that happens and post the update. The Riker Maneuver will be lost =(

That or I will make it more efficient for modern

Well I strongly encourage you to keep it standard, as Ashen Rider shall still be playable in the maneuver. I would love to be able to play this deck in fnm!

Sweet deck! Can I suggest Dictate of Heliod ?

+1 upvote , because the description makes me smile AND causes me symptoms of .epilepsy. I tried something similar, but did not have a very efficient control compared with Azorius or espers.The best I could do with enchant cards was my: Naya auras enchant heroic

comments and suggestions are welcome.

When M15 hits you could replace Armada Wurn with Hornet Queen

*"+1 while you're at it!"

Looks like fun, love the gifs. Now that I've corrected your grammar, you get a +1 from me.

Riker's Beard should be a card.

I do love this deck. My question would be this - how much of a loss will Ethereal Armor be when RtR cycles out?

Will this deck still be valid? I love the enchantment synergy decks and would love to play this. Is there a suitable alternative?

Also, what would be a good sideboard response to Back to Nature . Or does one just yell "Khaaaaaan!"?

Oh I definitely think this deck will still be valid. It just won't be as aggressive and i'd just use more removal.

Banishing Light + Warden of the Beyond is something that could work out well in here.

Up the Nyx-Fleece Ram to a playset and throw in maybe a set of Caustic Tar and you got yourself a wall while dishing out damage via Grim Guardian and Caustic Tar

Font of Fertility Is something that I think can replace Mana Bloom

Devouring Light is a great new cards as well.

You see it just get's a different flavor depending on the cards, Yea you lose the aggressiveness with the loss of Ethereal Armor and the comfort of Sphere of Safety but you can definitely add in a few things for better removal and more of a board presence.
