Estrid untaps things.

Seems pretty powerful to me, so I stuffed a ton of enchantment ramp in and built on from there.

I could swap Enduring Ideal for Finale of Glory and commit to the enchantment ramp. The former seems fun to play so I thought I'd give it a shot. Any suggestions for enchantments I can include to lock the game out would be appreciated. My first go at an enchantress deck, I eventually hope to upgrade to EDH and add some of the more $$ enchantment protection cards like Privileged Position, Sterling Grove ect...

Suggestions appreciated!

Barren Glory — Feb. 26, 2020

Edit

After playing this deck quite a bit with Finale of Glory in the signature spell slot, I decided the mix of enchantress goodstuff and ramping into a huge Finale was just a bit boring.

I originally planned on swapping the Finale out for Enduring Ideal to go EPIC & assemble some spicy game-breaking boardstates. I've seen a lot built around Enchanted Evening that blow up all opponent's lands, but that's just mean.

Let's let them keep their lands, but just counter everything with Dovescape so all they get is birbs instead!

Briar Patch, Reverence, Palliation Accord will all grant diplomatic immunity from the bird wars that ensue.

Who said these doves can all fly? Archetype of Imagination clips everyone else's wings and ensures I'm finishing off whoever's left.

That isn't enough for me though. In my search to abuse Oathbreaker even further, I discovered Barren Glory. It's absurdly cheap for a card with the text "You win the game", due to its casting cost and upkeep trigger.

Thankfully it's easy to stuff this deck full of ramp & card draw using enchantments, making Estrid the force multiplier needed to pull off this jankfest I'm now calling my wincon.

Oblivion Ring//Detention Sphere+ Barren Glory + Worldpurge = The Cheese Stands Alone

I have yet to playtest, but from the previous iteration of the deck I know how quick Estrid's untaps can pump out 12+ mana.

The obvious drawback is the upkeep trigger on Barren Glory; but for now I'm just going to see if I can get to a point where I'm saying "pass" with nothing but The Cheese Stands Alone on my board and a smile that big on my face.

If I can get that far then I'll make some room for flash shenanigans to squeak by a win even quicker.

In the future I might (re)rebuild this deck around the Enduring Ideal jank I explained earlier. For now tho, I'm sticking with the cheese. The maybeboard reflects these future possibilities, as well as big $$$ enchantress upgrades I could make in the future.
