Cessation

Enchantment — Aura

Enchant creature

Enchanted creature can't attack.

When Cessation is put into a graveyard from play, return Cessation to its owner's hand.

With 27 artifact creatures, 18 artifacts and 4 artifact lands I'm confident your commander will always cost 2.

Slow Motion and Cessation potential upgrades to your aura creature control theme. The return to hand clause is very powerful.

Cessation, Sluggishness and two more similar enchantments from each color (different sets) will trigger Spirits as they go from Battlefield to Graveyard to Hand. Not sure if any of them would fit your theme but I thought the interaction was cute.

Flickering Ward is great value. Fallen Ideal can put those tokens to use.

If your interested in being annoying, there are several Urza block enchantments that return to hand when they go to the graveyard from the battlefield: Sleeper's Guile for some evasion, Brilliant Halo (not that great), Despondency to nerf a creature, Cessation and Slow Motion can be really annoying.

UPDATE:

I wanted to add more "creature prisons" with return to hand effects. Sadly I could only find one I thought was passable (Cessation and Forced Worship seems a bit too weak to play). While looking at removal cards I also restumbled upon Chaos Warp which suddenly seemed very fun.

If you haven't seen Aspect of Mongoose before you probably haven't seen the others. There are three per color i think. Launch, Cessation and Spirit Loop, Sluggishness etc. Recasting enchantments that fit your deck is as good as card draw sometimes.

I like your build, with a few exceptions, otherwise it looks solid. There are cards I run in my build that I'm not seeing in your build, and I believe you really need to run them.

First, a few creatures worth addressing. Kor Spiritdancer is a must, given the number of auras you are running, as is Sram, Senior Edificer. I would consider taking all of the Lieutenant cards and Thassa's Devourer out for some better options, such as Eidolon of Countless Battles, Auratog, and Phantatog. Why the atogs? Merciless Eviction and Return to Dust effects, primarily.

As far as spells go, have you considered Retether? It's not Replenish by any means (which I would recommend if you can come across one), but it is certainly a great card for a Voltron strategy.

For auras, look into recursive enchants like Rancor. Ones I didn't see that you can track down are: Launch, Brilliant Halo, Spirit Loop, and Cessation. Aqueous Form can help you push through damage and set up your draws a little better, too.

I hope these suggestions help! I really enjoy this commander. Bant Enchantress is by and large my favorite archetype of all time. I'm the resident expert, in a manner of speaking, at my LGS because I've been playing it for so long (or variants). Good luck.
