Syr Armont, the Redeemer

Gameplan

Syr Armont turns every Aura and Role you stick on your creatures into an extra +1/+1 anthem, so you build a wide-and-tall enchantress board, then swing with trample-enabled threats. Early turns ramp and play cheap enchantress payoffs; mid-game you bestow Auras/Roles to snowball a few creatures into one-shot kills. The commander itself hands out a Monster Role on cast, immediately buffing a key attacker.

Key Cards

• Ellivere of the Wild Court — A second Role-generating anthem that draws cards whenever a Virtuous creature attacks, perfectly mirroring Armont's plan.
• Sythis, Harvest's Hand — Premier enchantress engine, drawing a card for every enchantment (including Auras and saga-style pieces) you cast.
• Setessan Champion — Draws a card and grows whenever you cast an enchantment, snowballing the Aura shell.
• Sage's Reverie — Reads cards equal to your Auras on the creature and grows it, a huge payoff under Armont's anthem.
• All That Glitters — A cheap Aura that scales with your wide enchantment board and stacks with Armont's bonus for lethal swings.
• Generous Gift — Premium GW removal that answers anything while you out-value opponents with enchantments.

Upgrade Path

Lean harder into enchantress engines (Sythis, Setessan Champion, Eidolon of Blossoms, Argothian Enchantress) so Aura-based two-for-ones become card advantage instead of liabilities, and add protection like Hexproof-granting Auras (Snakeskin Veil, Heroic Intervention) to shield your stacked threat. Tighten the curve with cheap ramp (Birds of Paradise, Wild Growth) and finish with Overrun effects (Craterhoof Behemoth, Triumph of the Hordes) for explosive closes. For higher power, add fast mana, Sterling Grove/Enlightened Tutor to find key enchantments, and Smothering Tithe for resource dominance.
