Best Ethereal Armor buffs in RUW?
Deck Help forum

I'm making a Sorok Aura deck (Justice is Served), think Bant Auras but switch one color out for another. I have a playset of Ethereal Armor to plug onto my creatures, which are either Boros, Azorius, or can fit into either guild. What enchantments am I missing in this deck list, and how can I optimize Ethereal Armor while staying in my police force motif?
Ethereal Armor is a good card, but imo, into standard format it doesn't shines.
Best aura combined with Ethereal Armor is Auramancer's Guise (+6/+6, vigilance and first strike) or Ethereal Armor and Enchanted Evening (assuming you have 5 lands to cast Enchanted Evening , a creature, and Ethereal Armor you will have 8 enchantments in play, then the creature will get +8/+8)
Also as Magiclover318 said, reduce the mana cost of your enchantments, I recommend Arrest , Blind Obedience or Curiosity (and just in a case you don't mind to attack each turn, Furor of the Bitten )

i'd say that if you are playing red white blue then definitely use removal enchantments like Detention Sphere or possibly Oblivion Ring , because Ethereal Armor still gets the bonus for those. Also, DEFINITELY use Invisible Stalker in ANY enchantment deck that uses blue. Unblockable and hexproof is unreal! I'd also recommend using Assemble the Legion because it's a great card for only 5 mana, and it matches your colors, gives you a bonus for the armor, and is a one card army after about 4 turns.

I used Ethereal Armor in Selesnya and coupled with Unflinching Courage and say Rancor , its amazing. You have plenty of enchantments but I would recommend dropping the mana cost on them because you will not get out enough to have Ethereal Armor worth having.
