This deck started when I bought the green Commander 2014 deck and added black to make it into a Nath of the Gilt-Leaf deck. It's been a long work-in-progress, both in fine tuning the list and in trying to make the deck all foreign cards (I'd also like to foil the deck as much as possible, but that dream is a bit farther off...)

The deck plays mainly as a stax deck with some aggro back-up. A big shoutout to this Nath list as it's been a huge inspiration for my deck. The usual Nath bombs like Sadistic Hypnotist and Words of Waste + Geth's Grimoire empty the opponents' hands while giving me tons of elves. The things like Ezuri, Renegade Leader and Beastmaster Ascension let me swing for an aggro kill. I also have Staff of Domination with Priest of Titania or Elvish Archdruid to generate infinite mana, which is a win-con with Ezuri or Exsanguinate.

Currently, I am testing Warping Wail , replacing Myojin of Night's Reach. The myojin was just a little too expensive, and I have other ways to clear the opponents' hands. Also, one of the deck's weaknesses is that it's not very responsive, with very few instants. I'm hoping Warping Wail can change that.
