~G/W Enchantress deck with few creatures yet all the G/W 'hidden' and 'opal' enchantments from Urza's Saga block?

~G/W deck where most creatures either have regeneration, persist or undying and the deck has Cauldron of Souls, Dauntless Escort and Loxodon Hierarch for the ones that do not have the abilities above.

Cheers for the advice!

If you are unfamiliar with commander please look here: http://mtgcommander.net/rules.php before posting to see what's it about and get started on your own deck for it.

quote:

---

Saffi Eriksdotter GW(2)
Legendary Creature — Human Scout (2/2)
Sacrifice Saffi Eriksdotter: When target creature is put into your graveyard from the battlefield this turn, return that card to the battlefield.

She's cheap, you have lots of ways to make you okay with her going to the bin on sacrifice instead of having to pay increased commander costs, she's another way to protect your creatures that lack undying/persist, and you can use her on undying/persist creatures who die with their counters on, to bring them back with no counters to restart their life cycle.

For the enchantress-style deck, if you're insisting it be Green/White and ONLY Green/White, honestly, I'd just go with Sigarda

quote:

---

Sigarda, Host of Herons 2GWW(5)
Legendary Creature — Angel (5/5)
Flying, hexproof
Spells and abilities your opponents control can't cause you to sacrifice permanents.

None of the G/W legendary creatures are especially worthwhile regarding enchantments. Sigarda at least, with flying and hexproof, is someone you can enchant up and swing with and have a reasonable chance of getting damage through, and the sacrifice prevention is handy in general.

Or, for largely the same reasons as Sigarda, you might consider Krond, The Dawn-Clad

quote:

---

Krond the Dawn-Clad GGGWWW(6)
Legendary Creature — Archon (6/6)
Flying, vigilance
Whenever Krond the Dawn-Clad attacks, if it's enchanted, exile target permanent.

This is what I'm looking at for the enchantress deck:

Creatures (10)
Academy Rector
Argothian Enchantress
Auramancer
Femeref Enchantress
Mesa Enchantress
Monk Idealist
Soul Sculptor
Sun Titan
Verduran Enchantress
Yavimaya Enchantress

Legendary Creatures (2)
Kataki, War’s Wage
Krond the Dawn-Clad

Instants (3)
Disenchant
Naturalize
Worldly Tutor

Sorceries (5)
Austere Command
Creeping Corrosion
Gaea’s Blessing
Idyllic Tutor
Replenish

Enchantments (43)
Abundance
Angelic Destiny
Armadillo Cloak
Aura of Silence
Cage of Hands
Cessation
Compost
Eldrazi Conscription
Enchantress’s Presence
Exploration
Forced Worship
Ghostly Prison
Hidden Gibbons
Hidden Guerrillas
Hidden Herd
Hidden Predators
Hidden Stag
Hoofprints of the Stag
Karmic Justice
Khalni Heart Expedition
Leyline of Sanctity
Luminarch Ascension
Mana Reflection
Mirari’s Wake
Molting Skin
Oblivion Ring
Opal Acrolith
Opal Archangel
Opal Caryatid
Opal Gargoyle
Opal Guardian
Opal Titan
Primal Order
Privileged Position
Rancor
Runed Halo
Sacred Mesa
Shield of the Oversoul
Sigil of the Empty Throne
Soul Snare
Solitary Confinement
Sterling Grove
Story Circle

Basic Lands (30)
15 Forests
15 Plains

Lands (6)
Krosan Verge
Strip Mine
Sunpetal Grove
Temple Garden
Thawing Glaciers
Wooded Bastion

Legendary Lands (1)
Serra’s Sanctum

Possibilities:
Krosan Reclamation (!)
Primal Command (!)
Wave of Reckoning (!)
Wheel of Sun and Moon (! / better than Gaea's Blessing for me?)

And I suppose Krond makes more sense than Sigarda thematically.

One concern I have is that you only have 9 creatures. I'd want to at least double that number, or decks with a lot of spot removal or countermagic will just run you over.

Also, Compost seems a bit narrow. Still mulling over this list, but I don't know if we want a card that's just dead in a lot of matchups. Acouple of the Hidden creatures seem like dead cards some percentage of the time as well; though I do like about half of them.

You guys are seeing the token generators, yeah?

Also - why aren't you playing Sphere of Safety? It costs a lot, but they won't be able to pay enough to attack you.

I appreciate your comments, and yeah, multi-player is different than 1v1. You may have noticed I don't have Hidden Ancients, that's the only one I cannot count on triggering with the group I normally play. Everything else, instants, artifacts, non-basics, all those hidden creatures will reveal themselves.

I didn't know about Sphere of Safety, I've been trying to ignore everything after Avacyn Restored in order to concentrate on the ideas I have and not go chasing everything new and shiny.

Slight addition to the mana base perhaps, Brushland? Or even Elfhame Palace?

I normally default to 37 lands in my EDH decks, the only one with more is Kaalia as she has a Mox Diamond and the only one with less is Talrand, as he has a very, very low mana curve.

Are you suggesting I add a land or replace one? Elfhame Palace is very pretty though I am trying to cut down on 'comes into play tapped' lands. The Brushland I could cut a plains out for, though I don't think I'd need it.

Thoughts?
