Ever since this card was spoiled Shadowborn Apostle was leaked I have been testing and fine tuning a list with my playgroup and this is the current set-up.
First, I want to talk about the mana base. After the first game with a standard split mana base I knew immediately that black was far more important that other colors, so I changed the lands to almost entirely black or B/x sources. With cards like Sylvan Scrying , Expedition Map, and various tutors to help get all three colors. Usually G/W are not needed til turn 4+.
People tend to hate on your enchantments, so having ways to get them back is crucial. While enchantment recursion exists, I find it too narrow. So my recursion cards, can get anything. Except dread return, it just fits so well.

Rune-Scarred Demon and Bloodgift Demon were the only ones to make the cut. Pestilence Demon is still in the maybe pile.
