Make sure to read the description!

This deck was born of my want to make something as competitive as I could with a small budget and with cards I had in my personal collection, some of these cards would not be in here if I already didn't have them due to price.

The overall theme is to vomit out a bunch of mana dorks and draw a bunch of cards until you hit something game winning or have enough to overwhelm the entire board with lords and other similar effects.

Commander Choice Show

I use Ezuri, Renegade Leader as my commander most of the time, but also switch to Freyalise, Llanowar's Fury when I know the table doesn't have a lot of boardwipes or I know I need to control my opponent's boards more.

Freyalise, Llanowar's Fury

Freyalise, Llanowar's Fury is an excellent commander due to her versatility.

Her +2 is very useful, it helps boost a lot of the tribal effects and gives you a mana dork, what's not to like?

Her -2 is just some basic removal stapled onto your commander, very nice.

Her -6 can oftentimes give you enough card advantage to end the game given a decent board state.

Ezuri, Renegade Leader

Ezuri, Renegade Leader is the best if you want to win with beatdown.

His first ability regenerates a target elf for , this is very powerful and not to be underestimated;

-Combat with mana open is a lot less risky.

-It makes your key creatures very difficult to get rid of with conventional means of destruction.

-It serves as a great mana dump later game if you need to save your entire board from a wipe.

His second ability is an Overrun on a stick, what's not to love?

Marwyn, the Nurturer

Marwyn, the Nurturer is a very risky choice and not recommended.

With a lot of low cost creatures throughout the deck, she can quickly ramp to ludicrous amounts of mana.

This makes it a lot easier to instantly win on the spot with a Paradox Engine on the board, or make infinite mana with either Umbral Mantle or Sword of the Paruns . Attach Stoneforge Masterwork to her for more mana than you'll ever need.

The downside is that she has very little protection and can easily be removed or tapped down, especially if the table is aware of the combo nature of the deck.

Strategies and Synergies Show

Ramp

This deck has a lot of mana dorks, play them! There's also two mana doublers, Caged Sun , and Zendikar Resurgent .

Dump mana into Joraga Treespeaker if you can protect it and the payoff will be very high, giving most of your creatures :

Thousand-Year Elixir effectively gives all your mana dorks haste and can get a bit more value from big mana dorks.

Marwyn, the Nurturer , Wirewood Channeler , Priest of Titania , Elvish Archdruid , and Arbor Elf with Elvish Guidance , can all easily tap for 4 mana, which can become infinite mana with either Umbral Mantle or Sword of the Paruns .

It's worth noting that you can tap the afore mentioned creatures for 3 mana and still make a creature with infinite power and toughness with Umbral Mantle

Drawing Cards

Beast Whisperer , Primordial Sage , Soul of the Harvest , Vanquisher's Banner , and Zendikar Resurgent all effectively draw you a card when you cast a creature spell.

Lifecrafter's Bestiary also does the aforementioned if you pay .

Gilt-Leaf Archdruid draws you a card every time you cast a druid.

Collective Unconscious and Benefactor's Draught will usually draw you 3+ cards and are worth the one-off effect.

Harmonize draws 3 cards, plain and simple.

Gaea's Blessing a small amount of graveyard recursion and makes you immune to milling to the graveyard assuming you don't draw it.

Vomit Out Your Entire Deck!

Paradox Engine is one of the central win conditions, allowing you to play most of your deck in one turn simply by having a bunch of mana dorks and something to draw you cards.

Steal All the Land!

Steal your opponents land with Gilt-Leaf Archdruid ! All you need is seven druids on the board, if you chose Freyalise, Llanowar's Fury as your commander, this is a lot easier to achieve. Another card that can do the same thing is Llanowar Mentor , while at the same time filtering out dead cards in your hand.

Beatdown!

Use the many elf lords and/or Coat of Arms (on a big body), Ezuri, Renegade Leader , Beastmaster Ascension , Overrun , Overwhelming Stampede , and Eldrazi Monument .

Infect!

Everybody loves/hates infect. With Tel-Jilad Fallen / Viridian Corrupter and Stoneforge Masterwork and Taunting Elf , you can easily achieve an infect win and make your playgroup want to ban infect even more than they already do! :D

Control

Sometimes we don't want our opponents to have fun, so make sure to use your removal effectively.

Song of the Dryads is arguably some of the best removal for commanders in the format.

Phyrexian Revoker is effective at stopping cards like Walking Ballista or Karn, Silver Golem from oneshotting everyone or locking down the board.

Primal Command can tuck a vital card in a pinch.

Ghost Quarter gets rid of lands you don't want around.

Krosan Grip is sometimes needed to make sure it really goes away without meddling.

Fog is good for saving your ass when the whole table is swinging at you.

Arcane Lighthouse hexproof and shroud are annoying and this fixes that.

Tutor for stuff!

There is a grand total of 7 tutors, which helps improve reliability and consistency.

Time of Need searches for legendary creatures, of which there are four. Most of the time you'll be searching for Ezuri, Renegade Leader , Marwyn, the Nurturer , or Yeva, Nature's Herald .

Sylvan Scrying is a second Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx , can grab you a utility land, or you can search up Inventors' Fair to tutor for Paradox Engine / Vanquisher's Banner / Thousand-Year Elixir /etc. just make sure you have at least three artifacts.

Inventors' Fair See above.

Primal Command is an incredibly versatile card, one of it's modes tutors any creature in your library.

Expedition Map functions similar to Sylvan Scrying but on an artifact.

Skyshroud Poacher tutors any elf straight to the battlefield, this is ridiculous and way more powerful than it should be.

Going wide

Lys Alana Huntmaster gives you twice the elves every time you cast an elf!

Ambush Commander turns your land into a bunch of elves.

Elvish Promenade double your elves for the low cost of , can end games.

Imperious Perfect a turn for an elf, great value.

Presence of Gond tap for more elves!

Drawing the right cards

Gilt-Leaf Seer allows you to peek at the top and get the right cards at the right time.

Lifecrafter's Bestiary 's scry 1 helps put stuff you don't want on the bottom, making sure you probably won't see it for a while.

Protecting your stuff

Ezuri, Renegade Leader keeps your elves alive for mana.

Lightning Greaves / Swiftfoot Boots are commander staples and keep things alive and hasty.

Eldrazi Monument at the cost of one elf a turn you can be immune to most board wipes and give all your creatures evasion.

Good Stuff

Shapers' Sanctuary makes your opponents want to remove your stuff less and gives you value if they do, and for super cheap.

Taunting Elf regenerate with Ezuri, Renegade Leader and you can go multiple turns unblocked against one opponent, need I say more?

Yeva, Nature's Herald is Vedalken Orrery for 1/3 of the deck. Vedalken Orrery is $20 at the time of writing this for a good reason, instant speed creatures are very powerful.

Copperhorn Scout is criminally underrated and can allow you to get twice the value out of anything that taps for something.

Misc. Interactions

Immaculate Magistrate + Joraga Warcaller gets out of hand very quickly.
