Rhys the Redeemed EDH deck...

It's basically a giant G/W Elf Tribal (combo-ball) deck:

The elves make mana to cast more elves and make more elf tokens. Ideally the Priest of Titania, Elvish Archdruid, and Wirewood Channeler should generate massive amounts of mana to cast the giant creatues or let Rhys generate even more tokens before swinging in to annihilate everyone else at the same time.

The deck is also built to be relatively resilient and to withstand board wipes with Avacyn, Angel of Hope, Loxodon Heirarch, Dauntless Escort, Wrap in Vigor , Rootborn Defenses and similar cards.

It also tries to protect it's pieces with Privileged Position and Asceticism. Ideally once I get my hands on a copy of Eladamri, Lord of Leaves he will also go into the deck.

A number of tutors are also included to try to increase consistency and the chance of going off: Green Sun's Zenith, Chord of Calling , Primal Command, Summoner's Pact, Elvish Harbinger and Wirewood Herald

The deck also features a number of anthem effects and planeswalkers who enhance the number of power of the tokens that are produced.

Card draw is also essential to either hit combo pieces, win-conditions or simply refuel and repopulate the board after a wrath effect. Soul of the Harvest increases it's ability to combo, Garruk, Primal Hunter draws a ton of cards off the fatties, and Skullclamp is simply incredible. Clamping and drawing off eldrazi spawn and small elf tokens generates insane value, and also feels good.

The game plan for the deck is to try to survive long enough to create a massive board position, and ultimately make gigantic tokens and just sweep in for the win (killing everyone) with Ezuri, Renegade Leader, Craterhoof Behemoth or Beastmaster Ascension which will go over the top ideally wipe everyone out while ignoring whatever they have on board. With a good hand the deck can hit in for over 700 damage, spread across a large number of bodies on turn 4-5 (as long as nothing is disrupted)

The sideboard is for situations where decks playing tons of boardwipes or counterspells are around to go over the top despite being wiped.

Cards that I plan to obtain and put into the deck:
