Description of deck by its author (quoted):
Unfortunately, Rootwater Matriarch fits relatively poorly into a modified Enchantress deck, and Rootwater Shaman doesn't help at all when using Licids. As both are blue and center around using creature enchantments, though, it stands to reason that several decks can support both members of the Rootwater clan.

For example, both creatures are Merfolk. Merfolk decks have long used creature enchantments like Curiosity and Sigil of Sleep in them, so a Merfolk deck is a natural place to find both the Shaman and Matriarch. In particular, I like the use of Mistform Mask in a deck like this -- you can steal opposing creatures at instant speed and then turn them into Merfolk for +1/+1 and islandwalk thanks to Lord of Atlantis. The ability to turn the Lord itself into a Merfolk to benefit from its own ability is an added bonus.
