Sideboard


After looking at many "Enchantment Prison" decks and Pillow Fort decks that I didn't like, I decided it was time to make one for myself. I didn't like that the win condition of many builds was only Heliod, God of the Sun and Sigil of the Empty Throne, as both are relatively easy to combat with cards like Path to Exile and Nature's Claim in the format. I also didn't like how the deck just got bent over and fucked by control decks.

My version of the deck has Gideon Jura and Elspeth, Sun's Champion to help make the deck more versatile.

Gideon Jura, alone, can destroy opponents that aren't prepared for him. He also combos very nicely with some of the cards in the deck.

Blind Obedience + Gideon Jura's minus ability is disgusting.

Ghostly Prison + Gideon Jura's plus ability means that you wont ever get attacked again.

All around he is just a good card.

Elspeth, Sun's Champion helps clear the board with her minus (especially good against Eldrazi), and adds a seperate win condition between her plus ability and ultimate.

The deck also runs 4 copies of Idyllic Tutor to help find cards like Heliod, God of the Sun, or Banishing Light. It also helps to find any enchantments that I brought in post-board.

For questions regarding my decision to include Flagstones of Trokair to the mana base instead of more basics:

I included Flagstones of Trokair to work as a tappable and painless fetch for Mistveil Plains. Mistveil is cool because I get to put shit back into my deck. For this deck specifically, it is a big deal. Any enchantments that hit my graveyard can be put onto the bottom of the deck and fetched out with Idyllic Tutor. Works especially well with Porphyry Nodes and my sideboard cards.

I really like how efficient this version of the deck is. Its very synergistic and consistent. If you like the deck, give it an upvote. Feel free to leave any and all questions or feedback in the comments.
