Abzan Constellation

Today's deck is an experiment in trying to make the most out of Constellation synergies. We have 32 cards that are either enchantments or enchantment generators, 10 cards that strongly reward us for playing so many enchantments (including 4 Eidolon of blossoms, 4 Doomwake Giant, and 2 Kruphix's Insight), and enough early plays, removal and lifegain to consistently survive until the midgame against even the most aggresive decks out there. The new cards from Khans are unexciting, but very useful: Sandsteppe Citadel enables a solid and relatively painless mana base, whereas Debilitating Injury is a cheap removal spell that is great against small creatures, not completely dead against larger threats, and works with all our enchantment triggers.
