I may throw together a build when I get off work and see what you think

You're thinking of {Horizon Chimera}, which is the other way around.

How about {gladecover scout}?

I (and I think Agrus Kos) run GW Hexproof and so far it's alright vs Esper but they have {Detention Sphere}a that just wreck your enchantments and you need the life gain from {Unflinching Courage} bc once they drop that {Desecration Demon} it's hard to deal with unless you have a {Selesnya Charm}.

Lastly, Mutavualt is a must have I play 2 MB, 2 SB bc when they force you to sac you need that on the field to easily avoid saccing your buffed {Witchstalker}

Okay, I just did a major face-lift to my deck: Added {Unflinching Courage} as a mainboard 4-of, Added back in a 4-of {Aqueous Form} for the Unblockable & Scry, Took out {Ordeal of Heliod} & {Wasteland Viper}.......

What about sideboarding a few {Planar Cleansing}? Also, should I add in a 4-of {Detention Sphere} so that I can deal with Planeswalkers that way?

I like {Gladecover Scout} in place of {Centaur Healer} and {Ethereal Armor} in place of {Divine Favor}.

I was hoping you could give some feedback! :D Why do you suggest these? I'll procede to pick your brain.

Well, Centaur Healer is okay, but it doesn't have hexproof and is vulnerable to removal while gladecover scout has a smaller body but is difficult to remove. (And I would not worry about the small body anyway as you plan to enchant her) And I prefer ethereal armor because I have seen this beast in modern, it is absolutely essential in an aura deck like this, IMO.

Not to speak for her but with my GW Hexproof I want as much pressure as possible ASAP. And a T1 Gladecover into a T2 enchantment (I like {Ordeal of Nylea} personally} into a T3 {Unflinching Courage} to swing for 5 Tample Lifelink Hexproof then next turn you get 2 more lands! It's just great!! And {Ethereal Armor} just makes it that much better its a one-drop enchantment that usually gives your creature +2/+2 or higher! :D

Moneekahh

Yep, the lower CMCs are a big help as well. Gladecover Scout is a boss one drop.

Mattao19

I once one with a 1 land hand bc I had Gladecover and 3 ethereal a in hand lol T1 GS T2 Ethereal swing 2 T3 another Ethereal swing 5 T4 third Ethereal swing 10 and then T5 swing lethal and have it Trample with Sel. Charm

LadyGrixis

Word, well I've made the replacements. I still need to tweak it more so that almost everything is a 4-of....

Mattao19

I suggest running 4 of Gladecovers Fleecemanes and Witchstalkers and maybe 2 Prognasty Sphinxes that's it for creatures the rest should be a combo of auras and spells

Moneekahh

Smiters might find a better home in your sideboard, IMO. And the lawmages CMC is too high for my liking, maybe just a 2 of if you really want to run them. I think you should run more auras.
