I'm surprised this wasn't already posted. Anyways... pretty self-explanatory.

Two Greater Auramancy cards protect every enchantment on your side.
Enchanted Evening makes everything an enchantment.
Solitary Confinement prevents you from drawing cards at the start of your turn...
...but Mesa Enchantress lets you draw a card whenever you play an enchantment (in other words, everything).
Oh, and Celestial Dawn? Optional, but useful in a multicolored deck.
If you're desperately low on life as well, add Faith Healer to the mix (also optional, but worth honorable mention).

If you've noticed I haven't posted many combos recently... well, I already used up my Grade 'A' material. Thinking up original combos is hard.

Not really... maybe something to make everything indestructible... like maybe mycosynth lattice and darksteel forge...
only thing left now is Apocalypse...

You want to pay a total of fifteen mana to make everything you own indestructible? Doesn't that seem... excessive? I mean, if you have that much mana, waste it on Kozilek and a Fireshrieker.

You really only need to make your creature(s) indestructible, don't you? So... why not just Shield of Kaldra or Indestructibility? They're much cheaper by far - both cost four mana. Enchant / equip the Mesa Enchantress (as it's the only creature necessary here) and you're golden.

because after that, your opponent doesn't have anything to be able to kill your permanents... other than maybe annihilator... and apocalypse... and the combo title does say "Ensured Invincibility...?"

I suppose you have a point there. I just wonder if there isn't a simpler way.
Cheaper? I think I can think of something using cards no more expensive than Mycosynth Lattice... but simpler? You got me there.

Blazing Archon can stop attacking, which prevents annihilator. For spells Dovescape could work. You would still have to look out for Boseiju, Who Shelters All. Iona could stop spells to. For the rest you would need something like Null Rod and Mycosynth Lattice

I'm not sure Enchantress works? They don't become enchantmens until they come into play and Mesa Enchantress ability says whenever you cast an enchantment spell.

What y'all think? If it does, I'm puttin' in my Mesas in my Enchanted Evening deck :)

You're right. Was the intention that it play like Null Profusion?

Iona, Shield of Emeria and painter servant are necessary to have invincibility. A single global spell can wipe out any setup, and Boseiju, Who Shelters All can force it through. Next best is something like dovescape or another global counterspell. Last you need bord advantage. This can be either clearing the board first, or something like Blazing Archon. Last you need to control there boards kill options. Shroud may not cut it if they have a Panoptic Mirror with a wrath of god, or something to wipe out enchantments. Once Iona and the painter are out, and have shroud the opponent can't do much, but cycling can be done, so you still have to watch out for that.

Bah. Variants are variants.
I don't complain every time someone posts a new combo with four Rite of Flame cards and a Sneak Attack. Sure, it's practically the same thing, but it's not exactly the same.
