It's no secret that Queen Marchesa allows for various options in deck design. I figured that enchantments appear to be the best way to establish a pillow kingdom to defend the our ruler while also applying pressure to opponents. While I know I want the overall deck to be heavy on enchantments I need help narrowing down which strategies I should focus on. In the current list I have a little bit of everything while the maybe board also has more options that I haven't found room for yet. I'm thinking of moving the deck towards discard as sitting on the throne allows you to break the symmetrical effects such as Necrogen mists and Oppression. Anything in the deck is up for cuts (except Enduring Ideal of course) and budget is not too much of a concern.

Thanks for any and all advice/help!

This is exactly the deck I've been in the process of Brewing! I've wanted to also go a more rattlesnake approach by having first strike and death touch in the deck. Daxos the return could be good with the number of enchantments you run as well as starfield of nyx
