I think 12 creatures is not enough. Throw in  {Fencing Ace}. I also like  {Loxodon Smiter} for this deck. However, think about  {Alpha Authority} if you go with enough non hexproof creatures. It's a semi  {Canopy Cover}, and I loved that card in an enchantment deck. I also kinda like  {Lyev Skyknight}. Helps  {Geist of Saint Traft} get through and has built in evasion.

Good advice. Updated a little

Trunksthemighty

Updated. Thought about how well  {Voice of Resurgence} and  {Murder Investigation} synergize together.

Updated a bit. Found out I didn't have a few cards in my original so I made the changes.  {Alchemist's Refuge} makes this deck super fun and  {Simic Charm} is incredible!

Trunksthemighty

Updated again. Thinking about taking this to my local ptq in a couple weeks. Opinions?

Don't get me wrong... I love  {Sigarda, Host of Herons} but if you drop her your curve goes down so that you can run less mana. Also think of it this way: Geist + spectral flight = 5 mana like Sigarda... But yields much more offensive power. Sigarda might be ok in the SB. I'd drop 2 Sigarda, 2 {Alchemist's Refuge} (it may make it fun, but you will more than likely slow yourself down waiting for enough mana to use it. This is an aggro deck IMO.)

add 1 Geist, 2 {Unflinching Courage}, 1  {Spectral Flight}

Move 2  {Voice of Resurgence} to main, and 2  {Ascended Lawmage} to side.

If you want to keep an angel or two, why not consider  {Bruna, Light of Alabaster}?
She's a house when she blocks and pulls back all those used enchantments from the graveyard (and maybe new ones from your hand).

I have considered  {Bruna, Light of Alabaster}. The main point of  {Sigarda, Host of Herons} is to prevent sacrificing.  {Devour Flesh} and  {Renounce the Guilds} are seeing a lot of play in my meta.

Would you say drop the 2 refuge and sigarda and run 22 land? I've had the idea of running less land in this. Or replace the refuge with something else?

Thanks! I will test it out tonight and let you know how it goes :)

Ran really well last night. Went 2-1-1 all close and super fun. When I add 2 more  {Geist of Saint Traft} it will be killer

You might want a {Sphere of Safety} in the sideboard.
