This is an Estrid, the Masked enchantress deck, focusing on enchantment synergies, enchantment recursion, and mana production. It is currently in the process of moving away from a more standard enchantress deck and toward a more stax-y version, to distinguish it from the more conventional Sythis, Harvest's Hand-helmed enchantress deck I am creating. Right now it's in a weird not-cEDH but too-powerful/staxy-for-most-casual-games place, and will likely remain there.

Traditional enchantresses include Mesa Enchantress, Satyr Enchanter, Setessan Champion, and Sythis. (I'm specifically not playing some of the more common ones...mostly because my foil copies have gone to my Sythis deck, haha.) More unconventional enchantresses include Tuvasa the Sunlit (a nerfed enchantress), Femeref Enchantress (card draw not for enchantments cast/ETB but for enchantments being sent to the graveyard), and Enchantress's Presence (noncreature enchantress). Beyond that, I have several other enchantments-matter cards, as well as a lot of powerful enchantments in these colors such as Privileged Position. You will draw a shit-ton of cards with every enchantment you play, as is only right for an enchantress deck.

I also have several ways to recur those enchantments if they die: most notably Estrid herself, but also Replenish works for that. Those are both on a large scale all-enchantments-in-your-graveyard level, but if you're more interested in recurring an individual enchantment, Hanna, Ship's Navigator has your back.

Finally, big mana: Estrid's +2 is bonkers with Wild Growth-/Utopia Sprawl-type land enchantments, and in combination with an enchanted The Chain Veil it can easily give you infinite mana. Meanwhile, Serra's Sanctum is there as another way to give you obscene amounts of mana (it's crazy to think that this was only the third best of this Urza's Saga land cycle!), and Kruphix, God of Horizons will let you bank any you didn't use.

Stax effects include Winter Orb and other tap/untap/lack of untapping effects, as Estrid can pretty easily fight through them due to her +2; Estrid's masks or any of the various land Auras placed on your lands will let you untap them even as your opponents are kept tapped down. Meanwhile, you (and occasionally Estrid) are protected by pillowfort enchantments such as Solitary Confinement and Propaganda.

Wincons: Currently my main ways of winning are a swole Tuvasa, Angel token beatdowns (thanks to Sigil of the Empty Throne), Approach of the Second Sun fueled by the enchantresses' card draw, big mana funneled into a Helix Pinnacle, and the Aura Thief + Enchanted Evening combo (which is admittedly HILARIOUS). There are a few ways to lock up the game, such as Solitary Confinement + all the enchantress card draw, or the aforementioned Winter Orb staxy shenanigans, that can help hold on to find one a wincon.

(You may notice that there are some cards foiled in this deck that haven't actually been released in foil; this means I created a foil proxy that I'm using until a real foil is released, if ever.)
