This deck is my baby. If you look thru all of my decks I own you will see that I try to build each deck to be different than all the others I own.

Meren of Clan Nel Toth I know is suppose to be one the strongest STAX Commanders. Well I just can't stand straight up STAX! This is of course a personal opinion. So I went with GY Recursion.

Please feel free to critique this deck and +1 if you like it.
