[Galabranth]

Instead of Spirit of the Labyrinth, try {Azorius Charm} for utility. It adds flexibility to your play so its great. Spirit is good, but I'm not sure its not exploitable enough yet.

[DirtyMustachio]

Yeah spirit is just there as another cheap beater and anti sphinxes rev. Throw ethereal armor on it and it's auto a 5/3 first strike

One way to exploit the {eidolon of countless
Battles} and {ephara, god of the polis} is to run {Brimaz, king of oreskos}. Not just does it pump the eidolon, it potentially gives you a creature on the opponents turn, allowing you to draw an extra card. It would be counter productive with the {spirit of the labyrinth}, but that's probably what I would replace for it.

**wishful thinking** - I had to go back and reread brimaz to see what kind of creature he put out. Unfortunately it's not enchantment tokens.  That behind said, maybe since there's enough white, {nykthos, shrine to nyx} can be added and a single {Heliod, god of the sun} can be played too.

Just some suggestions to it. I think their are ways right now to exploit the enchantment synergy, so I've been playing with a few ideas myself.

[DirtyMustachio]

I'm definitely running the shrine to nyx but that's a clever perception

I could also run brimaz's sidekick dude because I could do silly things heroic'ing with epharas aura thingy especially if ajani's Chosen is out. Spirit is out and boarded either way.

4 Nykthos? Are you crazy?!!! 2 tops! 3 if you're risky! But4!??? Way too many isn't it?

Is it not too much? Or am I just over exaggerating?

I mean I dunno I feel like it's no big since it can be a colorless, and you can tap one for mana then play another. I think my curve is pretty decent but maybe not

I only say it bc getting stuck with 2 in your opening hand sucks it's equivalent to mulling to 6 IMO also it's dependent on a board presence so be careful with it. I'd playtest it but I'd say go to 2 or at the very most 3

Thanks maybe I'll do that good to know and think about

Also I'd definitely suggest for you to switch Brave to MB idk what you'd take out but it's a win condition in itself as well as a great creature protector!

I definitely agree here. I think you go down one {elspeth suns champion}, down both {sphere of safety} (even though I know it's good, I thin brave is better. And down one {detention sphere}

[DirtyMustachio]

That's actually where my head was at to. Spheres a tricky card to play but I guess it's a better setup for one big creature to ram in instead of a field full of Aggro beaters
