Sage's Reverie

The payoff for a deck that decided early it was going all-in on Auras. The math is recursive: every Aura already stuck to a creature draws a card here and pumps the enchanted body, so the value scales with the board you built to reach this point. That is also the wager. A deck full of one-shot enchantments leaks card advantage every time an opponent kills the creature underneath them, since the Aura goes with it, and this card is meant to answer exactly that bleed: convert the whole attached suite into cards in one motion. The vulnerable moment is before the spell resolves. If an opponent has removal for the target while the Aura is still on the stack, the Aura never enters and the draw never triggers at all; the spell is countered on resolution for lack of a legal target, and you have simply lost four mana. Once the trigger is on the stack, though, it counts your attached Auras only when it resolves, so a fast response that peels an Aura off elsewhere can still shrink the payout. The +1/+1 per Aura is the secondary mode, a finisher when the shell is already wide, but it doubles as the floor: even a modest draw off one or two Auras still buffs an over-leveraged creature. White's Aura strategies have always struggled to turn a sprawling, fragile board into raw cards, leaning on combat and lifegain instead; this offers a refuel button rather than another body to enchant, a rarer gift than the archetype usually receives.
