New BNG board wipe looks like it's only fit is this deck. 7cmc isn't really that bad when we can stall the board out, and it avoids all our enchantments too.
We don't care about Auras much, and it's not overcosted, just 2x Idyllic Tutor in one. Could be very useful for setting up combos or locks.
What sorts of enchantments would you be searching for on turn 6? Seems pretty awful. There are not many good enchantments in modern, all the good ones seem to be in the form of auras.
Maybe I'm way off base here, but I don't think Enchantress has what it takes to be good. Unless you go the Aura-root:
Spreading Seas
Sea's Claim
Kor Spirit Dancer
Utopia Sprawl
I may be missing something, but how does a deck like this play against a combo like splinter twin? It seems like this deck has no way to disrupt it, and it's slow enough that it wouldn't be able to outrace it. I'd love to play this deck, it just seems like it would suck to have absolutely no play against such a large part of the modern meta (any combo deck).

I was thinking of splashing black for thoughtseize in the main and illness in the ranks in the SB. Maybe some other stuff but nothing really jumps out at me.
I was hoping that Enchantress's Presence would get reprinted in the Theros block. That one card would speed Modern Enchantress decks up considerably and allow a non-aura build to function adequately.
I've always been a huge fan of Temporal Isolation. Enchantments with flash are a rare thing, and we all know how good flash is. That's some EoT or pre-combat draw with either Spiritdancer or Enchantress in play.
I don't know if you guys have seen Travis Woo's Eidolon of Blossoms brew but it seems fun and pretty solid.
It uses Kor Spiritdancer (since most of the enchantments here are auras) and Eidolon of Blossoms for draw engines and then just ramps into Emrakul, or Kessig Wolf Run, or a big Genesis Wave.
The Urborg is to make fetches useful after all the forests and plains are gone via Genesis Wave.
Gonna be testing out this deck again with the edition of Abundant Growth, Eidolon of Blossoms and Kruphix's Insight. I think this deck will be much better this time although I'm not sure yet about Eidolon of Blossoms over Verduran Enchantress yet but I'll see.
Forced Worship can create a draw and token engine with an enchantress or Sigil out. Runed Halo is a catch all like Oblivion Ring and Kruphix's Insight looks like it could provide a TON of gas in a deck like this. Could potentially be a 3 mana draw 3.
looking at Kruphix's Insight i don't quite see the need for eidolon of blossoms, i'd rather stick to a heavy white build for using shrine of nyx land. 4 mana for a draw engine just seems too much to me. 4 mesa 4 insight looks solid to me.

Modern's counterparts do similar things just at a much slower rate. (ghostly prison, fertile ground,shrine of nyxos, etc)
Thoughts?
Instant home in this deck, no?

I will always firmly stand by the belief that Magic is a game first and a collectable second.
You're missing Ghostly Prison.

There's also Oppressive Rays and Banishing Light out there too.
Edit: Just realized Abundant Growth doesn't ramp Would've been so broken I guess.
