Maybeboard


Hi everyone! This is the second draft of the deck. I'm looking for some input for sure! First I want to talk about the overall goal, then the power level I'm shooting for, and then we can get into a deck tech.

The goal of this deck is ultimately to combo out, and if it can't, to establish a board state and swing. It is a mid range deck that is going to slow the game down with tons of hate, and remove cards at the right time.

Levels of capability/competitive in my opinion: Jank --> Casual --> Casual Tuned --> Casual Competitive --> Competitive/CEDH

I believe Galadriel is definitely in Casual Competitive, leaning towards competitive. And that is my intended space to play the deck in. I hold no bars making the deck as fast as possible, but the commander itself is not as competitive as, persei, K'rrik, Son of Yawgmoth or Kenrith, the Returned King. That being said I have made some concessions for fun because my playgroup plays so competitively, and have taken out the token package that is now listed as the maybe-board for extra hate and win con packages. There are still some concessions that I won't make, i.e. I don't like playing stax as to me it is not fun, but the deck would definitely benefit from a Drannith Magistrate and other such cards.

Here's the Deck Tech TLDR: Play dorks and protect them with spells like Galadriel's Dismissal, use them to ramp towards our combos while straying away from artifact ramp that our own Collector Ouphe will slow down, and finally combo. If you are stopped, proceed to make the dorks we've been playing large enough to kill, tell everyone you're sick of their nonsense and close out the game with a Triumph of the Hordes or an Avenger of Zendikar. Below I'll go over our combos.

Food Chain + Misthollow Griffin -- these two cards are the primary combo. You don't need your commander to start the combo, but after you generate infinite mana you'll cast your commander and continue to cast the griffin to draw your entire deck, resetting your commander with Food Chain.

Elesh Norn, Mother of Machines or Panharmonicon + Felidar Guardian + Restoration Angel -- between these two you can infinitely bounce both of them, and your commander, drawing your entire deck and making all creatures infinitely big. Also generates infinite mana with a Kozilek's Predator. Note: This is the one combo in the deck that requires your commander to be out before you start.

Pemmin's Aura + Emiel the Blessed + Bloom Tender, Incubation Druid or a Wirewood Channeler, -- Infinite mana. Not much to this one, get infinite mana, play your commander, and use your infinite mana to infinitely bounce your board and draw your deck.

I'll get to the deck tech at a later date. I've playtested the deck against others 3-4 times, and so far my thoughts are to find spots in the deck for more control. Our goal is to hit the midgamd after all, therefore I want to find places for Collector Ouphe and Rest in Peace as well as other excellent staples.

Here's the short of it! Let me know what you think.
