Hey
I've been thinking for a long time that enchantments are underrated, and only the really good one get played. Then, last thursday, a friend of main came to me and said that he managed to get a nice enchantment combo. We did some testings, and yea, it was a succes.
The main parts are Spring Cleaning and Enchanted Evening, with some nice auras like Shield of the Oversoul
You just use enchanted evening, and when it's a good time, you cast a spring cleaning, sweeping your opponent's board completly, and he/she will stay with a num look
When Conflux will be released, there will be some nice addition to this wierd combo, but im not quite sure about that.
Anyone has somethign to add? any thoughts about enchantments in the current meta?

Playing these days:
T2:
Valakut :symr::symg:
EDH:
Sygg, River Cutthroat :symu::symb:
Crovax, Ascendent Hero
Karthus, Tyrant of Jund :symb::symr::symg:
Ixidor, Reality Sculptor
Teneb, the Harvester :symw::symb::symg:
the problem with enchanted evening is because it's very vulnerable, unless you have counters to help. also, you'd depend on a successful clash to really make this combo work.
however, with this deck would be possible to maindeck your own Wispmares and then recur it with lark
When you think about it, you could just use that SHW enchantment that is giving shroud to all of your enchantments, then just add naturalizes, wispmares and other stuff, and ca nget a really nice 5C Enchtantment deck. then, you could really abuse the deck, altough you will need to add a nice amount of counterspells and removals to keep the combo safe.
This deck also has another ***, which is way more deadly then the usual one, and also cheaper

So?
I could spend a month listing all the creature removal in T2, but that doesn't stop people from running creatures. That's not a valid reason to not run enchantments. The real reason to not run enchantments is their slow effect on the game. Creatures will run all over your face, and control will just laugh as they gain quick board control. Unless you can get around at least one of those two things enchantments are just too slow.
Except spring cleaning is not bloody damn consistent!
Look. Every four or five days, someone posts a thread about abusing the card. It didn't work then there was a t4 boardwipe that allowed you to keep threats on the board. It double won't work now.
And thats only if you go the combo route. Look at it like this. A deck based around aura's requires a good way to get them(tallowisp), and really good auras(spirit loop, Armadillo Cloak) to put on guys. In the current standard, Troll Ascetic is the only guy who you can reliably not get 2>1d by enchanting(cryptic to bounce or spot removal). And with 2 instant speed sweepers in/soon to be in the current standard, you can't even do that till t5, 4 is you ramp or something. Plus, the only good aura is Shield of the Oversoul, and that isn't that effective on him.
So, you're kinda barking up the wrong tree here. Everyone needs to let it die. Once and for all.

Guess what, mostly everything in T2 gets rolled by faeries

This.
Everyone on this board uses the crutch of "It gets beat by fae" to beat down any rogue idea. This just in, the deck is the top deck in this absolutely terrible standard format. It would literally be like comparing a Chevy Malibu to a Chevy Corvette. Yes, we know which one is slower.
I am not defending this deck, because it will have bad matchups against aggro decks. But stating the obvious will get people who might be interested no where.
