Top 5 Hidden Bant Enchantment Synergies

With the release of Theros Beyond Death and the resurging popularity of enchantress-based strats in Commander, I wanted to look for some unappreciated or underappreciated enchantment synergies, primarily in Bant colors. Popular commanders like Tuvasa aren’t going away anytime soon, and THB gave us a great new option with Siona to play around with auras and a go-wide approach.

SaffronOlive recently did a deep dive on some useful Commander cards hidden in older sets, and his look at Ice Age got me interested to take a look myself.

When most commander players think of Ice Age and Bant enchantments, I’m sure there’s one main target that comes to mind.

No. Not you. You’re not an underappreciated gem.

#5 — Arenson’s Aura

This card depends more on your playgroup’s meta and if you’re going to be facing some oppressive enchantments from your opponents like Aura Shards.

There are some synergy possibilities with Femeref Enchantress and Starfield of Nyx for recurrable constellation triggers, maybe buff your Starfield Mystic, but this one feels more limited in scope.

#4 — Soul Barrier
