This is a deck I’ve been turning around in my mind for a while. I haven’t quite got all the cards I need to finish it so I thought I’d ask you good people for some advice.
For a long time I’ve wanted to do an enchantress deck. This is intended to be a political deck, giving people creatures and motivation to attack while I sit back and be the puppet master. Gahiji, Honored One to me is a fixed Edric, Spymaster of Trest and really needs to be exploited as a political general.
I've found people are quite content to attack other people with the tokens I give them. I still have the easier to cast Lashknife Barrier in the deck if needed. The extra card draw from Harmonize is better. Forcing people to attack with Basandra, Battle Seraphis nice, but not being able to cast combat tricks annoys people and I don't want to draw hate. Plea for Guidance shouldn't be too hard to cast between Serra's Sanctum & Gaea's Cradle. I should be able to cast what I search as well.
More card draw, the enchantresses are a good start, add Harmonize, Faithless Looting that'll help, more card draw will smooth the deck out. On a side note Curse of Chaos is not great, seems like it would be better else where.

Celestial Archon
Curse of the Forsaken
Curse of Nightly Hunt
Collective Blessing
Faithless Looting - More card draw and setup a Replenish
Femeref Enchantress – I want to see how consistently I can get Heliod, God of the Sun out and how often those creatures die
Glory of Warfare
Goblin Diplomats
Grand Melee
Green Sun's Zenith - Being able to search and drop an Enchantress could be pretty valuable.
Guardian Seraph - to go with Lashknife Barrier to prevent the damage from attacks from the tokens I give out
Hedron-Field Purists - to go with Lashknife Barrier to prevent the damage from attacks from the tokens I give out
Invasion Plans -
Karmic Justice - maybe overkill with Greater Auramancy, Sterling Grove & Privileged Position
Luminarch Ascension – I don’t want to draw that much hate
Martyr's Bond - - maybe overkill with Greater Auramancy, Sterling Grove & Privileged Position
Mercy Killing - Turn one big threat turns into a lot of small threats
Mogg Infestation - Turn a few large problems into many more manageable problems
Oath of Lieges – I don’t mind encouraging attacks but I don’t want to help a mana screwed opponent
Plea for Guidance - More searching is never a bad thing
Seal of Cleansing & Seal of Primordium – might need to find room
Stranglehold - I don't want to draw too much hate
Survival of the Fittest – Unsure of the creature count
War’s Toll – I don’t want to draw that much hate
Words of War
Words of Wilding
Xenagos, God of Revels
- Sensei's Divining Top + Mirri's Guile - more enchantments for Enchantress's and Serra's Sanctum
- Curse of Stalked Prey- too many cards no replacement
- Karametra, God of the Harvests + Awakening Zone - not enough creatures to make it worth while
- Mana Crypt- too many cards no replacement
- Michiko Konda, Truth Seeker - too many cards no replacement
- Parallel Lives - too many cards no replacement
- Pattern of Rebirth - too many cards no replacement
- Plea for Guidance - too many cards no replacement

- Basandra, Battle Seraph
- Briar Patch
+ Harmonize
+ Plea for Guidance
I've found people are quite content to attack other people with the tokens I give them. I still have the easier to cast Lashknife Barrier in the deck if needed. The extra card draw from Harmonize is better. Forcing people to attack with Basandra, Battle Seraphis nice, but not being able to cast combat tricks annoys people and I don't want to draw hate. Plea for Guidance shouldn't be too hard to cast between Serra's Sanctum & Gaea's Cradle. I should be able to cast what I search as well.

- Naya Panorama
- Vitu-Ghazi, the City-Tree
- Crystal Chimes
- Fertile Ground
+ Forest
+ Plains
+ Karametra, God of the Harvests
+ Vexing Shusher
I found I've been getting a lot of creatures and Karametra, God of the Harvestworks really well. Vitu-Ghazi, the City-Tree was too mana intensive and Naya Panorama just didn't cut it for me. Vexing Shusher was added to deal with counters.Crystal Chimes was my least efficient recovery card.

I'll try and work in Harmonize and Faithless Looting. I'll try and replace Curse of Chaos with another curse. Not sure which I'll keep you up to date.
