I guess mystical is better than enlightened, not super crazy though since you don't have a ton of bullets and it's just one tutor.
Sphere I think is pretty bad when you're not likely to have more than 1 or 2 enchantments out. Paying one or two on turn five isn't that hard.
You're right about the talisman cycle being better, stick all of those in there. Not Dominance though, I wouldn't put that one in.

"affected by this ability" isn't parlance you can really use in current Magic templating. For what you're trying to accomplish, I would probably do something like:
+1: Remove all ice counters from creatures on the battlefield, then tap target creature and put an ice counter on it. It doesn't untap as long as it has an ice counter.
-X: Remove all ice counters from creatures on the battlefield. You gain control of target creature with converted mana cost X.
-5: Remove all ice counters from creatures on the battlefield. Tap all creatures target player controls. Draw a card.

Yeah it's the progress one, the only one available for wedges.
Sphere is per creature so it adds up and it just needs a 2nd enchantment to be ex aequo to a ghostly prison.
I feel like you're coming from the always attacking with Narset side while I'm more concerned with protecting my PWs.
Kinda unimpressed with Storm Herd, increasing devotion does its job better by being recastable and not sure I need the redundancy or whether I'd want timely reinforcement over it for actually being playable from hand.
Mentor felt relatively strong from what I've tested, it's gonna die instantly in practice though.

This is why I snapped up Sneak Attack for $20 the moment it got spoiled.

Do you really need to do that much to protect your planeswalkers, though? A lot of them do that by themselves and your whole game plan is to start dumping several a turn to keep out of range. Once you start flipping time walks or double attack phases it's just insurmountable by itself. I'm a huge fan of focused gameplans in commander. When you always start with the same card it just makes the most sense.
Firemind was right to tell me to cut all the 1-drops from my Zurgo deck, and I'm doing a similar thing for you. The best place to start is to streamline the deck as much as possible, then only start making changes once you identify problems in playtesting.

but I'm not gonna be playing extra turns and combat phases. That's just not the deck I want to pilot with Narset. I do appreciate your input though, due to the added mana rocks I'm now above 50% chance to get a 2 mana rock in my starting hand.

Wow they let the guy finish the game after starting with 8? If drawing 8, counting and deciding to keep isn't intentionally cheating I don't know what is.
Then play stuff like Austere Command and Tragic Arrogance instead of Sphere of Safety.

That's even worse!
You know this makes Dark Depths insanely broken, right?
Oh no wait I'm stupid, you said creatures and it isn't a creature.

I feared so wanted the geist, and general blue, you may choose not to untap effect.
wrong thread pal.

Ugh, I don't know if I like the rise of Dredge. It's just unfun to play against.
This activates my trap card. Switch this post with one of your benched posts please.

Now this is Modern. Just a good old combo aggro mirror.

Watching RG Breach is so sad compared to Amulet Bloom. Why do they gotta ban all the fun decks.

Ugh, this is the worst part of Modern. 2 decks that give no shits what the other does unless it touches their precious Linear gameplan.
I don't even play Control and I'm still against these super linear decks.

Sure they are. The worst thing that happens when you lose on turn 2 is that you have a bunch of free time to get food.
Not fun is when my opponent tanks every turn even though both players know they don't have any options so they drag the game out to spite me for playing Lantern.

My friend milled himself out playing Dredge because he wasn't doing anything but chump blocking my 11/11 Scavenging Ooze.

Yeah, land animation spell + planeswalker isn't even the most broken way to do Dark Depths.

Interesting that the dredge deck plays a single Stomping Ground over the 4th Mana Confluence.

Nobody cares how much fun you are having playing a prison deck
