Alseid of Life's Bounty
Enchantment Creature — Nymph
Lifelink
, Sacrifice Alseid of Life's Bounty: Target creature or enchantment you control gains protection from the colour of your choice until end of turn. ((Remember the acronym debt.) This creature can't be damaged, enchanted, equipped, blocked or targeted by anything of the chosen colour. Anything of the chosen colour attached to this creature immediately falls off.)

aladinnsane Totally get that! I personally use Eternal Witness and Timeless Witness to give me a couple tools to recur what I need to.
It's nice when the protection can be on a creature. In that case, perhaps Selfless Savior and Alseid of Life's Bounty could be decent adds for you!

plainsrunner I completely forgot I included Alseid of Life's Bounty. Originally I had 4 Selfless Savior, but I do not know why did I change them. Maybe I should, but it is true that protection from a color covers more scenarios than indestructible. I will still test it to see what works, so thanks!

I notice you mention protection without manacost and specifically call out Alseid of Life's Bounty, but the alseid's ability requires one mana to activate, so you're still going to want to wait until turn four if you want to guarantee protection.

Alseid of Life's Bounty might be a good choice to keep your important things safe.
MorbidDrop on Alseid of Life's Bounty + …

New Player: I know that Alseid of Life's Bounty causes aura cards on the selected card with matching color to the color chosen to provide protection from being removed, does this still apply because Gladecover Scout has hexproof? For example, if I sacrifice Life's bounty to give Gladecover scout protection from white and Sentinel's Eyes is attached to Gladecover Scout, does that card have to be discarded?

I appreciate the compliment, thanks!
I use On Thin Ice with only 7 basics in my deck and it works fine, albeit I run fetches like Prismatic Vista, Windswept Heath, Wooded Foothills, etc so I can easily filter for basics if/when I need them.
As for enchantments that do 'control'ing things; I'd urge you to look at my deck. It's designed to control they game and grind it to a halt. However, I'm afraid that's a completely different deck than what you've got going on here. With your deck, you're trying to use auras in order to make one to two creatures as scary as possible to beat your opponents into submission - not lock them out of the game and preventing them from being able to play Magic. If you diversify your strategy too much, your deck would just become a mess - I'd recommend picking one approach and sticking with it.
On that note, you're quite vulnerable as well if someone deals with your aura-fied creature. Consider running things like the following to help protect your creatures:
- Veil of Summer
- Autumn's Veil
- Heroic Intervention
- Lightning Greaves
- Alseid of Life's Bounty
- Flickering Ward
- Greater Auramancy
Also, if you aren't wanting to add any more creatures due to wanting more enchantments, consider adding enchantment creatures. They also draw you cards whenever you play them since they're still enchantments. A good basic list of stuff you should consider is:
- Aegis of the Gods
- Alseid of Life's Bounty
- Destiny Spinner
- Jukai Naturalist - I would definitely consider this guy for you since your CMC is rather high and you're running things like Eldrazi Conscription and Overwhelming Splendor.
- Spirited Companion

to do much better i think u need to explain your meta. what do you lose against? burn? put in more lifegain/removal Alseid of Life's Bounty as an idea. combo troubling you do something combo specific or more counterspells. someone hating on enchantments Sterling Grove might protect you a little

On one hand. This is what magic was meant to be. I havent played a few of these cards since i first put a deck together. Crusade. won't even show the image.. That is a discussion for another time...
Suggested additions
Loyal Warhound ramp in white
Skullclamp card draw
Sun Titan recursion
Abzan Falconer can give mass evasion
Some amount of board wipes my favorites atm are Tragic Arrogance Martial Coup Vanquish the Horde Ondu Inversion Flip .
Cathars' Crusade it wins games. You may want to not use this so you focus on lifegain but this cards does work
Crested Sunmare lifegain payoff
Crovax, Ascendant Hero Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite
Soul of Eternity Celestial Mantle Axis of Mortalitykinda slow for my meta but might work for you.
Dawn of Hope card draw and can make tokens
Alseid of Life's Bounty protection w/ lifelink
Well of Lost Dreams card draw
Shattered Angel Angel of Vitality to keep with the angels if u want
Palace Jailer monarch is card draw also fun. and removal
Ajani's Pridemate lifegian payoff. its gets huge here because each attacking creature has its own trigger to grow the pridemate. i think 1 or 2 cards make essentially copies of this card. they might be worth looking for
Blind Obedience staxy and lifegain
Moon-Blessed Cleric you run a lot of enchantments your enchantress sub theme can be supported with this
Akroma's Will protection/ finisher
Noble Purpose unnoticed lifegain card that would be good here maybe
Lunarch Veteran Flip Soul Warden Soul's Attendant Daxos, Blessed by the Sun Suture Priestlifegain dorks
Katilda, Dawnhart Martyr Flip lifegain with enchantment payoff as well
now how do u win? atm you focus on going wide with weenies but have a focus on gaining life. Possible ideas Aetherflux Reservoir Archangel of Thune Felidar Sovereign Serra Avatar Starfield of Nyx Nykthos Paragon True Conviction
this is just some ranting. Its up to you how you want to build your deck! Other areas you should look at it your mana base (use tech lands you have almost all basics), ramp to your bigger stuff and card draw in general.
