I dont believe there are any enchants that they themselves have shroud. But there is never any 'best' enchantment. Some common ones you see people putting on him are Shield of the Oversoul, Scourge of the Nobilis, and Runes of the Deus. These are all common/cheap auras that are easy to get on him, but they also rotate out soon. Then all you will be left with are thinks like Lifelink, Oakenform, Indestructibility, Armored Ascension, and Savage Hunger are only enchantment auras I can think will still be around, plus whatever shows up with zen.

runes of the deus is very nice. Uril needs double strike because wither is his only real problem ... that i have encountered in the short time i have played him :P

None. Play him on his own so you don't have to clog your deck with bad cards. A 5/5 for 5 with troll-shroud is good enough on its own.

I wouldn't say the avatar hybrid enchantments are bad. Imo, they are pretty good for their cost and are worth risking being 2-for-1'd.

Shield of the oversoul is definately my vote, and in casual an armadillo cloak never hurts either. Indestructible trollshroud ftw!

Runes of the Deus is probably the best aura by itself at turning Uril into an immediate, game-ending threat.

Giving him indestructibility makes him pretty much unkillable barring enchant removal, but that means your opponent has to set up in order to kill Uril, (first getting the Indestructibility and then Uril, he's gotta get two cards set up, and that's assuming theres not anything else worthy to target.)

And with Indestructibility, it'll most likely be at least 2 for 2, if not more.
