Starfield of Nyx

Enchantment

At the beginning of your upkeep, you may return target enchantment card from your graveyard to the battlefield.

As long as you control five or more enchantments, each other non-Aura enchant you control is a creature in addition to its other types and has base power and toughness each equal to its converted mana cost.

Note on the CMC of rooms. They are equal to the total of unlocked rooms for the card. So not as nice for Starfield of Nyx as I was hoping but gets there once both doors are open. On the stack it will be CMC of the door you cast, as expected tbh.

So casting restricted office is CMC 4 on the stack and in play. Once you unlock lecture hall then the card is CMC 11. Important to keep in mind how it works but I think this is good.

I like this idea a lot, I actually played against a similar Enduring Ideal strategy once years ago. Not sure how competitive it could ever be, but it's still a cool deck. My impressions on the list are, maybe the Electrodominance angle could be replaced by something else? If the only thing it does is cheat out your Lotus Bloom, that seems like a suboptimal use of slots. Also 3 Greater Auramancy seems like a lot, I'd probably keep 2 so they can shroud eachother, but it seems like a dead draw vs. lots of decks. Starfield of Nyx is another enchant that these sorts of decks run sometimes, maybe if you add a couple of these plus some sort of discard/dig effect like Cathartic Reunion or Big Score, maybe surveil land, this would give you a second method of cheating out your big enchants.

There's a couple combos you could try to exploit with the cards you are already using. First, you could add Aura Thief to combo with Enchanted Evening, so you can steal all permanents.

Since you have Parallax Wave, you can add Opalescence and Starfield of Nyx and use the stack to exile all your opponents creatures without them ever returning. (Use Parallax Wave to target all the creatures you want to exile permanently and, with the activations on the stack, target and resolve Parallax Wave with itself. Its last ability triggers, returning it to the battlefield, then the triggers that exile the other creatures resolve. They won't be coming back!)

Since both Titania's Song and March of the Machines specify noncreature artifact they are both dependent on eachother, forming a dependency loop that means they must be applied in timestamp order rather than dependency order. This means that whichever entered the battlefield first is the one that applies. In the first example March of the Machines does nothing since Sol Ring is already a 1/1 artifact creature with no abilities, but if it had entered first it would be a 1/1 artifact creature with "{T}: Add {C}{C}."

Starfield of Nyx does not turn itself into a creature since it says "other nonaura enchantements." However, assuming they control two Starfield of Nyx it would be a 0/2 creature with no abilities. This is because its ability starts to apply in layer 4 when it turns enchantments into creatures and doesn't lose its ability until layer 6 when Sudden Spoiling starts to apply. Once the ability starts in an earlier layer, it will continue to be applied in a higher layer, so in layer 7b Starfield of Nyx will give all enchantment creatures a base power and toughness, then that will be overwritten by Sudden Spoiling also in layer 7b due to having a later timestamp.

Player A controls a Sol Ring, player B casts Titania's Song; Player A's Sol Ring becomes a 1/1 artifact creature with no abilities.

If player A then casts a March of the Machines, since Titania's Song specifies non-creature artifact, does March of the Machines change the artifacts into creatures, causing them to retain their abilities?

What would happen if the reverse was true? Player A controls both Sol Ring and March of the Machines, then Player B casts Titania's Song?

Follow-up question.

If Player A controls Starfield of Nyx (meeting its condition, causing their enchantments to become creatures with power and toughness equal to their converted mana cost in addition to their other types), and Player B cast Sudden Spoiling (causing creatures to lose their abilities), what would the result be?

Would all enchantments controlled by Player A lose all abilities and become 0/2 creatures - or, since the Starfield of Nyx would lose its ability, they would remain enchantments with their innate abilities but not be creatures in addition to their other types?

HandofAnubis Since Opalescence and Starfield of Nyx don't specify a creature type, the creature-fied enchantments don't have creature subtypes.

KibaAlpha +1 because of your name and deck's name.

Cloud Key - Ramp out enchantments more easily

I also concur with iMechanic's suggestion of Darksteel Mutation.

Serra's Sanctum - Ramp

Starfield of Nyx might be worth considering as well? Idk how that works with aura's exactly but seems cool
