Commander Deck Help forum

After playing with the precon 2015 enchantress (call of the spirit I think the name is) I found out that I love playing the enchantress type of deck and I would love to know which colors are the best for these types of deck

Yeah, basically just add . There isn't really a good enchantress commander, so you could just use a generic good one like Anafenza, the Foremost

I run Rafiq of the Many as an enchantress shell. Basically I cast a crap load of auras on Rafiq and draw as I do. Rafiq is a wincon but any creature can easily sub in for him should he get hate. So if you'd like an idea of what it can look like here is my deck:
Rafiq's Enchantress Harem

Well, there also is Zur the Enchanter who can also search for auras...I run a Zur enchanter toolbox version that finishes with Glistening Oil

Zur is a T1 commander who will draw lots of hate due to his rep. He also doesn't have which cuts out a lot of the enchantresses.

Enchantress is a nice strategy. Usually it falls into green/white as a result of the namesake card drawing engines. This is valid in these colours since card draw is scarcer and more unreliable for them. If you add blue, the theme loses some value since you need to sacrifice that for the stronger draw in blue, or your deck will lose power for doing the opposite. Something similar can be said for black to a lesser degree.
That said, since you already have a white/black base, I would just add green :)

I like Kynaios and Tiro of Meletis as the allows access to some sweet superfriends and support cards as well as the that is essential in an enchantress deck. If you were set on using then maybe Atraxa, Praetors' Voice or another commander? You could even go five-colour

There's basically 3 main ways to do enchantress. You can do voltron with sigarda, heron's grace or until the miststalker, playing a bunch of auras on a hexproof commander while drawing insane cards with enchantresses (my personal favourite), there is value-train style which is usually any green blue white commander using all the best enchantments to grind huge card advantage and win that way, or you can do a stax style approach which tends to use enchantments to control the game with effects like sphere of safety and control to win. They are all fairly flexible and can be mixed (my voltron sigarda deck has elements of value version with sigil of the empty throne and such as an example) and it's basically up to you. I've even seen a great bant enchantress deck that used enchantresses with mind control style enchantments to constantly steal the best things in play while simultaneously drawing cards

Abzan or GWB are the best enchantress colors and have a bias for Karador, Ghost Chieftain at the helm of one, given that enchantment creatures are now a thing.

base give you access to all of the, "draw a card when you cast an enchantment/when an enchantment enters the battlefield, draw a card," effects. Otherwise I'd say you could play whatever combination of colors you prefer.
