The Silent Stars - Enchantments Modern

Modern Budget Control Enchantment Mono-White

Philigan87


Sideboard


This is my first build for modern, and it's a semi-budget deck, as I had a lot of the more pricey cards already. I went with monocolor to avoid paying lots for an expensive land base.

The basic principle is to clear any and all board presence with enchantments until dropping Starfield of Nyx at which point they all become creatures and swing for massive damage.

Myth Realized is a great turn one play that keeps getting bigger the more the game goes on. It also gives you something to do with mana if you have any free at the end of your opponents turn.

Niveous Wisps is there to facilitate card draw and slow the opponents damage output early in the game. It's also handy for tapping down mana dorks on your opponent' turn 2.

Sigil of the Empty Throne can be quite handy if you're waiting for Starfield of Nyx to show up, and makes for a 5/5 creature when it does.

Seeker of the Way is there to apply a little more offensive pressure early game and to stockpile some life to help you weather the turns until Starfield of Nyx Arrives. Late game, seeker likely becomes a chump blocker to something large.

2x Wrath of God and to help against weenie and token decks or to enact a final clear out before Starfield hits.

All the other cards are confiscation enchantments.

Sideboard:

Open the Vaults, and Aegis of the Gods in the sideboard to help combat mill and discard decks. Chaplain's Blessing to help against mill decks. Runed Halo to sideboard in if there is one particular card that has you stumped, or to help against tokens.
