So, as it happens. I don't ever play EDH normally, however I found myself a Trostani & started going through my collection and noticed that I had a fair amount of cards which could support her two abilities, thus had a crack at building a highlander deck around her.

The aim of the deck is simple, overpower opponents with a creatures and tokens that grow ever larger through the various pump effects, while maintaining a healthy life total that becomes very hard to crack at.

I don't plan to spend to much extra money on this deck (I don't play the format enough to make it worth it), but if there is anything grossly missing like Doubling Season then feel free to point me in the right direction, thanks!
