Deck discussion for Modern G/W Enchantments

One of the key winning factors of the big aura decks in Modern is the fact of most of the creatures having hexproof. On the aura side, atotem armor is good for surviving mass removal, Ethereal Armor to further capitalise on the quantity of auras, and Spirit Mantle for evasion.

Another little trick I'd love to try, if I could get my hands on the cards, is to run Auratog in a deck like this. Auratog + Rancor is awesome on paper, but I'd like to see it in action.

so perhaps switch out the aura gnarlids for silhana ledgewalkers, and swap out alpha authority for spirit mantle?

I'll be honest, I've never played with an aura based deck, only against one. Your best bet is to Google "Aura Hexproof" and look at those decks. Normally I'm against net decking, but it can't hurt to at least get an idea from those decks.

Dedwards is right, it needs hexproof. Cards like Slippery Bogle and Gladecover Scout are necessities because of the hexproof ability. On top of that your going to want to run Totem Armor to avoid any mishaps you may run into. A lot of these decks also run some form of draw such as Snake Umbra and Keen Sense because your probably going to empty your hand quick. Lastly, the biggest bomb in auras is Daybreak Coronet if you can afford it.

yeah daybreak is great but my wallet really is not a fan of that pricetag, so i went with angelic destiny for my big drop instead, since it's a little more reasonable and recurs itself

you should look for Unflinching Courage trample and life link and ++ and the lifelink trigger with spirit loop. It mean if you deal dmg with spirit loop and a lifelink enchtantment you will gain double life
