Commander: Derevi, Empyrial Tactician

This is my Derevi, Empyrial Tactician build, it's explosive, fun to play and powerful to boot. Suggestions are welcome!

The idea with this deck is to play a guy on turn one or two (if not both) then turn three Derevi, Empyrial Tactician, untapping a land, attack a defensless opponent with your guys and untap another land or two and then, guess what, play another guy. From then on with Derevi, Empyrial Tactician's ability you'll be able to easily keep mana up for counters whilst still playing creatures.

At some point you'll draw a Bident of Thassa/Azami, Lady of Scrolls/whatever and end up with silly amounts of cards in hand from your hard to block little guys smashing your opponent's face. After that you just need to draw into or tutor up Hokori, Dust Drinker, Winter Orb or Rising Waters and start abusing their interactions with Derevi, Empyrial Tactician.

Cards like Thassa, God of the Sea and Azorius Guildmage help you punch through for the last bits of damage against clogged up boards and also serve as good curve fillers early game too. This deck matches up pretty well against many commander strategies: it's fast, explosive and disruptive.

Derevi has been banned in 1v1 french commander and as such I don't play this deck any more, however i will update it from time to time for all you lovelies who keep finding it.
