DECK DESCRIPTION IS STILL UNDER CONSTRUCTION

THE COMMANDER

• Enchanted Evening + Estrid, the Masked - Enchanted Evening makes all permanents become enchantments (in addition to their other types). Estrid's ultimate discards 7 from the top of the library, then returns all enchantments from the graveyard, then all Auras. All permanents are then put from the graveyard and directly into play without paying their cost
• Doubling Season + Enchanted Evening + Estrid, the Masked - Essentially the same combo as before, but Estrid's interaction with Doubling Season makes her ultimate easier to reach. When Estrid is cast, Doubling Season places twice as many loyalty counters on her. Estrid now starts with 6 loyalty counters instead of 3. Activate Estrid's first ability for +2, and you now have 8 loyalty counters in one go.
• Doubling Season + Estrid, the Masked + Oath of Teferi - Adding Oath of Teferi to the mix really helps get Estrid's ultimate activated in one turn. This enchantment allows planeswalkers to activate abilities twice in a turn. When Estrid is cast, she comes into play with 6 loyalty counters because of Doubling Season, then activate her first ability giving you 2 more counters, then finally remove 7 counters to activate her ultimate, leaving Estrid with 1 loyalty counter left.

STRATEGIES

• COUNTER CREATION with Doubling Season, spells that add counters to themselves and others, and creatures that double their counters and the counters of others. Creatures become formidable opponents as their power and toughness increase, and can deal a lot of damage to opposing players! If Herald of Secret Streams is on the battlefield, all damage dealt by creatures you control would be dealt to the target player. Simic Ascendancy's win con of 20 growth counters on itself is easy to achieve as so many of the spells in this deck provide counter generation
• MILLING THE DECK with Traumatize, Archive Trap, Taigam's Scheming, Jace, Memory Adept, several enchantments, and several creature cards with CMC of 1-3. Mill the deck as much as possible before using the Enchanted Evening + Estrid, the Masked combo
• BOARD WIPE with Blast Zone. This spell works great with Doubling Season because I can spend X mana for x2 the counters added. If Avacyn, Angel of Hope is on the battlefield, all permanents are indestructible and will not be affected by Blast Zone when activated. Considering adding Divine Deflection to avoid damage dealt by this board wipe should Avacyn, Angel of Hope not be on the battlefield

I will likely be cycling several creatures out for more Enchantment Creatures so that this deck does not rely so heavily on Enchanted Evening to be in play. I am also considering adding Laboratory Maniac to the deck or sidedeck in the event something goes wrong as I mill my own deck.
