No. Bruna's ability does use the stack, however the action of moving the auras is part of the resolution of her ability and does not use the stack. As shown in the rulings, if Bruna's ability triggers she would already need to be enchanted for DC to attach to her legally.
So you can only respond a sorcery with an instant.
Can you respond to an instant with an instant?
You can't "respond" with a sorcery because a sorcery can only be cast if the stack is empty. If you are responding, then that means that whatever you are responding to is still on the stack.
You can certainly respond to an instant with an instant--if you couldn't, counter spells wouldn't be very useful.
If there are no other enchantments on the battlefield, in your hand or in your graveyard, then you would not be able to attach Daybreak Coronet.
As long as there is at least one other enchantment, then you control the order that the enchantments go on the stack (and therefore get attached) and so you would be able to.
As a staunch anti-counter player, I can explain why counters are "unfun".
The problem is that a counter spell doesn't stop you from executing your strategy, it stops you from playing the game. In recent standard, this was epitomized by Caw-Blade. The non-UW player would sit for minutes waiting for the other guy to quit screwing with his deck.
I'm very sure it was quite fun for the UW player, but it was very much not fun for the other guy because he didn't get to play, and that's kind of the whole point.
As for a fair counter? Cancel, dissipate, etc--3CMC with UU in the cost. Mana Leak, IMO, is a problem and Snapcaster is not. Mana Leak locks down the game until it is too late to do anything.
I think that different strategies should be available, but I think both players should be able to actually play the game.
My deck is most definitely not up to competitive standard currently so I pretty much know that you will point out that it is terrible.
For starters I only have 4 mana leaks and I needed them in another deck so I am using Cancel
My deck is Human's and Griffins , griffin rider is human, rather than human and spirit's. Griffins are expensive mana wise although they fit my curve well.
I really need to get my hands on Day of Judgment... it would make the deck really work since I can make things indestructible and I have Roc Egg
It has the taping ability that can really slow down an agro deck (except my green/black infect deck which is packing removal) and it can stop someone swinging with their win con... unless it is dungrove eldar or Invisible stalker.
First, order more Mana Leaks. Even on a budget, you can probably manage 60 cents. The fact is that Cancel is just not a substitute, particularly in this deck. The mana cost is way off--1BB vs. 1B. Granted, they can't buy their way out of the leak, but trying to swing double blue and double white in a budget deck (so I'm assuming no or few seachrome coasts or glacial fortresss) is going to be tough.
If you are trying to get close to the UW Haunted Humans deck, I'm not sure that Angelic Overseer is a good match. At 3WW, she's pretty pricey, and at 5/3, unless you have a human on the board, she isn't too hard to knock off (although, again, Invisible Stalker can help that a lot).
But we really need to see a deck list before we can talk about much.
I have played plenty of mono red, and never lost to a turn one stromkirk, our deck is more aggressive than theirs and while you may struggle game one. After boarding in timely reinforcements, you really shouldn't have many issues.
I agree with this. My daily opponent plays RDW, and his noble is rarely more than a passing concern. If he's too much of an issue I will o-ring him, but after a turn or two at the most he's far more concerned out my guys than I am about his.
If you are still running mostly WU, you might want to look at Invisible Stalker. While he doesn't have much in the way of utility otherwise (such as tapping someone down), he has the advantage of being nigh-invulnerable. If you're looking for something to replace the crusader, you want to look for offense, not defense.
I see a lot of decks have Seachrome Coast, and I'm wondering what people's thoughts are. Obviously the folks that are using them are in favor, but I'm curious about others.
For me, the concern has always been drawing them after turn 3--I really don't want a land that comes in tapped that late. Is this much of a problem? Do the extra w/u sources really make a big impact, or do you think they are marginally helpful?
I'm going to have to build for the mirror, I think. I won't be at FNM this week, and by next week our secret will be out. Hopefully all the control people will go to UB...
Thank you for correcting me. Live and learn.
As for my sig....all I can tell you is this: I might or might not be right, but if you think about what I say, you will see it is true.
You can't "respond" with a sorcery because a sorcery can only be cast if the stack is empty. If you are responding, then that means that whatever you are responding to is still on the stack.

It would help to see your whole list, however.
Please don't troll. Verbal warning.
I see your point, but in this example it wouldn't matter--you still can't play your crusader that turn.
So I guess these are vital, and without them the deck will not operate.
Yes, I am fairly new (MBS). So can you explain this?

EDIT: For blocking Wurmcoil, that is. Or almost anything, for that matter.
