This is my Sigarda, Host of Herons enchantress deck. I got really tired of people spot-removing my voltron generals as soon as I tried to put an aura on them. I, therefore, came to a conclusion that many people have already come to; voltron general with Hexproof! I didn't want to go Uril, the Miststalker because he's so powerful and used. Thrun, the Last Troll and Geist of Saint Traft didn't give access to the white/green color identity that I wanted. Naturally Sigarda was the next choice.

The deck has one main plan; Play Sigarda, suit her up with Ethereal Armor, Mythic Proportions , or Ancestral Mask and beat your opponents to death. If you can get Shielf of the Oversoul or Indestructibility on her then there are only a few cards in the game that can get rid of her (the most commonly used one around here is Black Sun's Zenith). This effect also works with Umbra Mantle, like on Snake Umbra and Umbra Mystic.

The enchantress aspect here provides a bit of card advantage. Things like Verduran Enchantress, Mesa Enchantress and Eidolon of Blossoms trigger whenever you play an enchantment (including the enchantment creature tokens created by Heliod, God of the Sun in the case of the eidolon). I haven't had the cash to splurge on Argothian Enchantress, but it'll come eventually.

There is also a small angel tribal sub-theme going on here. This started out accidentally with things like Aegis Angel , which makes Sigarda indestructible, or Sublime Archangel, which makes her huge. After that it was natural to include other angels just for the hell of it. Herald of War is particularly useful.

If you're not feeling very swing-y you can always hide behind the pillow fort. Safety Sphere is a good way to keep people from attacking you. Spear of Heliod also helps in this respect if you leave mana open. You'd also be surprised how many people won't attack you if you have a Seal of Primordium or Seal of Cleansing out. People really fear retribution if you telegraph that you have an answer to one of their artifacts or enchantments.

Not gonna lie, if Sigarda gets tucked you're going to have a bad time. The only thing left to do is suit up someone else. Thrun, the Last Troll works well.

Suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I'm a bit poor, so try to keep them budget-friendly, but I could definitely use some suggestions on some more game-breaking auras.
