So good in W decks!

Wish she was legendary though.

That's the cutest giant monster I've ever seen.

Seems interesting with Solemnity, making it so that other nonflying creatures basically can't die.

I thought this was great for my Orzhov sacrifice deck, but a lot of creatures in it have flying.

Add Ashnod's Altar for infinite mana.

Add Altar of Dementia for infinite mill

Or just use Enduring Renewal for a similar effect.

Also works with Mystic Decree, for those with the predilection for old school combos.

Interesting note: the only white persist creatures have flying, and there are no white undying creatures.

Wonder if that was planned ahead at all.

This card is still pretty insane though.

If the Flying Counter works in the same layer as the 2 cards you are out of luck as timestamps are used to determinate and the creature entering with the counter will be newer than the enchantment and it will "win" giving it flying. You would need something like Archetype of Imagination (and it currently not exists that affect your creatures) that prevents creatures from gaining flying at all

If you combine with another color, you could give Archetype to your opponent...

Kitchen Finks says hi.

I think it's more of a case of white not having a lot of self-recursive creatures though. Either way, card looks amazing for any aristocrats deck.
