How Aluring~~ (Competitive Aggro/Combo Elves)

Commander / EDH Competitive Elves Mono-Green

abby315


Built to beat Wrath of God!

A new build for my Ezuri deck. Focuses on elves 4 mana and under (mostly 3 and under to take advantage of Aluren) that generate a lot of mana or early pressure, and then win conditions and mana doublers at 4 mana and up. Makes it really easy to have an unwieldy amount of mana by turn 4, even earlier with Concordant Crossroads or Thousand-Year Elixir.

This version is also a lot less weak to Wrath effects because it can typically generate infinite mana and win with 4 elves if you have a Priest of Titania-esque mana dork, and they can be played on the same turn; including aggressive elves allows for some early blowouts that can win before the boardwipe is drawn, too.

Cutting: Elvish Promenade, Immaculate Magistrate, Dwynen, Gilt-Leaf Daen, Oak Street Innkeeper, Jagged-Scar Archers, Lys Alana Huntmaster, Oracle of Mul Daya, Lifeblood Hydra, Beastmaster Ascension, Glissa Sunseeker, Revive, Reclamation Sage, Siege Behemoth, Kalonian Hydra, Asceticism, Freyalise, Llanowar's Fury

Suggestions always welcome. Can't afford Gaea's Cradle. Primer coming eventually, when I have everything on this list in paper!

Add: Altar of the Brood, Scryb Ranger, & Ashaya, Soul of the Wild

Updates Add

Made room for Temur Sabertooth and Cloudstone Curio, plus Ancient Stirrings as a land fixer or a way to dig for our combo pieces. Added Eldritch Evolution because it's a great tutor.

Swapped Shamanic Revelation to put Freyalise, Llanowar's Fury back in.

Swapped Sword of the Paruns for Staff of Domination, which I've finally decided to shell out the cash for; Sword takes so much mana to set up that it's easier to build up a 5-mana mana dork for Staff than pay 7 to start up Sword.

Added Glimpse of Nature ayy.

Added Selvala, Heart of the Wilds because she's a great elf, great mana dork, and possible infinite combo piece (either a creature with 5+ mana or, as Darkest points out, 3 mana to kickstart).

Reset discussion just to clean up some conversations!
