1) I always love reviewing your lists. Always. You're like me in the fact that with a lot of the decks I use I try to me as flavorful/thematic as possible while still trying to be relevant. A couple of your lists even inspired a few of my own - Most notably a spin off of your Judgement Day deck with Tariel, Reckoner of Souls at the helm. Appreciate you!
2) With all the tokens, Gaea's Cradle would be a good addition. Bonus points since Sisay can tutor for it
Looking at your list, Captain Sisay seems like a better commander because a. she is human and b. she tutors for awesome cards, including Sigarda, Heron's Grace. Also, very on-theme, and you can save slots you would have used on equipments/auras and give you more humans.

THANK YOU!!! Reading this made my hour. Thank you.

The whole purpose of this deck is to maximize Sigarda 2.0. The Captain is there to support Sigarda, not the other way around.

There are no divisions: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. -Galatians 3:28
So I've recently put together a sigarda, host of herons brick/good-stuff deck, and have been considering changing it around to a more thematic design. I've started collecting card ideas for a theoretical deck, and I'm stuck on which route to actually focus my design on.
From what I can see, this Sigarda can either pilot a mass-human deck with all sorts of swarming/anthems/etc, or she can be a variant enchantress, with more enchantments instead of auras/voltron (since most of the typical enchantress supporting cards like Mesa Enchantress/Verduran Enchantress happen to be human).
Finding a middle ground between those two deck archetypes seems awkward.
Is one route more consistent than the other?
I'm thinking that a pseudo enchnatress (with fewer auras but more global) may work better for multi-player, since aggro tends to get wiped. But I'm also enjoying the idea of chaining survival of the fittest triggers to eventually slam angel of glory's rise.
