Threat density, Chalice, planeswalkers, opponents who go super low from Sylvan Library. I think she's pretty much an auto-in in most builds.
I'll admit that it makes for somewhat surreal viewing that he answers his own question without realizing it in that first game, but it's good for the deck that a player with such a high profile and...
-Estrid, unfortunately, doesn't actually provide any value and is too expensive for what theoretical acceleration she offers.
@alvoi - List looks fine; I was running Wickerbough in the Leovold...
I played an Abzan list a few times recently, and it's fine. The main loss is that you're more vulnerable to attacks on your Argothians, as you're more reliant on GSZ. ie, Surgical, Humility, now...
Thanks. Yeah I've found Hall to be pretty solid. The clash with Ground Seal has come up a few times, but even though we only played against Lands once and didn't draw them, I do think Ground Seal is...
I think the card is strong; in the Narset meta, being able to recur a Cast Out or Oblivion Ring is pretty big, and it plays well with Solitary Confinement, Elephant Grass, Sterling Grove, or Seal of...
Hey I actually meant to post a link in here, thanks aedemiel. I did create a separate thread a while back because while it's nice to have a general Enchantress thread, I think Living Wish creates...
Welcome back. I'd definitely recommend defaulting to the discord. I hate to contribute to the mass migration, but there's a lot more activity there. https://discordapp.com/invite/Cj7SD9Y

The fact that it doesn't put anything into play is important versus anything else with a clock. I think people were mainly playing it in conjunction with Replenish
Nykthos seems okay as a one of, maaaaybe two. But yeah I think rather than trying to simulate what more expensive cards do you should just focus on what the best cards in your budget are. With 3x GSZ...

Argothian aren't really that much since the reprinting, and you can't really play without them. If you...

Hello, welcome back. A couple things jump out at me:
1)Your enchantment count is low. 29-30 should really be your floor for MD enchantments, you're down at 25. If you're at 4x GSZ, you should have...
I think Reality Acid would probably do most of the same things, especially with Invocation, and is half the cost, and can hit lands.
Someone shares this on the Discord, I really am a big fan of all-in Invocation, but the list I'm running is I think a lot more focused on getting value out of them.
4x Argothian Enchantress

Hey man congrats.
How was Sphere of Safety? It seems kind of okay against SnS but am otherwise not sold. Also why Runed Halo over Nevermore? They seem realistically just as castable but Nevermore...
List available yet?
You can also copy Banishing Light on a lot of relevant cards; Chalice(comes back at 0), Endless One, Walking Ballista, Delver(unflips), germ tokens, Marit Lage tokens, Mox Diamond,Chrome Mox,...
that's so much less scary than Pyrostatic Pillar
For a while that spot was Qasali Pridemage, but the mana curve made it a little redundant. The advantage of Elder is that the deck is very good at generating mana, so if you have the 2 extra mana you...
Well so far it looks like Reanimator Summer hasn't happened, and less Leovold is definitely a good thing. Could be an exciting time for the deck.
I definitely think that Replenish is a sick card, and I've been trying a list that honestly hasn't been doing great online.
This is what I'm testing
4x Enchantress's Presence
4x Argothian...
Blood Moon sucks against most builds. Even if you don't run a basic plains, you have Utopia Sprawl. Eventually you'll probably need to kill it, but it only stops you from getting to Emrakul levels of...
First, congrats on the finish. You're probably right about Solitary Confinement itself being in a much better position in the current meta-game.
61 cards though is just objectively worse than 60....
