Deck Description

An aura deck I've had for a while, recently updated.

How to Play

Put auras on ALL the things! That is pretty much it, just put as many auras as possible on all the creatures as needed. Kor Spiritdancer is a prime target for auras, as is Gladecover since the opponent will likely have a hard time getting rid of it thanks to hexproof.

Sheltered by Ghosts shuts down annoying things the opponent controls, and all the totem armor helps keep creatures on the battlefield. If an aura is lost Auramancer can be used to recover one.

Wow, i completely forgot about him being green, I ignored the color and just looked at how well it works in an aura deck. Going to fix that now.

Okay, rather than remove the Aura Gnarlid, i added some green mana and a few green auras i have, because i never really had a chance to my Aura Gnarlid until now.

first off I would like to say that I love aura decks. I have one myself that does fairly well.
my advice for you would have to be to actually cut a few of your auras and get some protective instants in your deck. you have blue, so cancel and such would be good.

Also, lose the thraben valiant and put in either 4 kor spiritdancers, or 2 and 2 more totem guides.
the valiants are cheap to put out, true, but they don't have synergy with the rest of the deck.
Kor spiritdancer is also onlly 1W to play, gets +2/+2 for every aura attached to it, and allows you to draw a card every time to cast an aura.
The other tack that you could take is to get some blue auras in.
Eel umbra is good, as are mind control type cards.

well, there is my 2 cents on this deck. It has lots of potential. :)
(Oh, also, Aura Gnarilds can be very OP. see my aura deck here: http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=230987).

I guess a few protective instants wouldn't be a bad idea, I will see what I can remove to find something to put in. The only reason I had the Thraben Valiants is for a low cost creature that I can get out quickly, but the Kor Spiritdancer is much better for an aura deck, I had completely forgot about them until I got the Savage Auras Planechase deck.

How many creatures does this usually get out at any given time? If it gets out a lot you could put in sigil of the nayan gods. Or, another good enchant aura would be kithkin armor. Put it on your gnarlid and it becomes unblockable.

I usually have an average of about 5 creatures and 4 or 5 tokens with the sigil of the empty throne and the bramble elementals that i decided to add. The enchantments with totem armor help keep them out, speaking of which, good point with the boar umbra over oakenform, same but with totem armor so its better. I like the Sigil of the Nayan Gods, with the tokens i can get it has a lot of potential. Thanks for the advice. ^.^

No problem. I have found those both to be very powerful cards, and it seemed like they would fit really well in here. :)
