Wow this plays way better than I thought it would. No offense, but my experience from past commander sets told me they weren't as good. Nice job modding it. First play test I had a pretty cool thing going by turn six. Second game I skull clamped the Joraga Warcaller on turn 2 and ended up with a turn 6 Genisis wave for 21! Of course this is with your commander, Garruk and Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx. Pretty insane.

Honestly i'm not even sure I can make any suggestions since green isn't my thing but if anything I would consider some three drop elves with 2 green mana symbols like Elvish Champion or Jagged-Scar Archers. The decks' pretty well made though so the only thing I "might" take out is Vernal Bloom.

Lastly if it's a big enough problem for your playgroup consider Viridian Shaman and Reclamation Sage. Of course Reclamation Sage is better being able to destroy two types of permanents but hopefully you won't need it.

Well thanks for your vote and your suggestions. Indeed I will take off the card you mentioned and put another one instead. Thanks again!

I know it's not an elf nor a wolf but Skyshroud Poacher (The Elvish Slave Driver) specially paired with Seedborn Muse offers you a elf grabber each turn, not bad and has been amazing in other decks I have had it in, even if other decks as a whole were a flop.

I'd consider a Worldly Tutor as well if you can nab one but as a whole I like the idea behind your deck, oh, maybe an Eladamri, Lord of Leaves, since it looks like you rely on blanket buffs as opposed to target ones, if would help protect your elves from spot removals.

Sorry just thought of another, Nissa, Worldwaker seems like a great fit in here!

Yeva, Nature's Herald, Contagion Engine, Contagion Clasp, Triumph of the Hordes. i know triumph is kinda mean, but it can turn a few dorky elves into a terror.

The Contagions are not so usefull and I already got Triumph in this deck even though its evil! Thanks anyway!

The Contagions work with planeswalkers. since your commander is one it's a really easier way to get her loyalty counters up faster. i ran a really bad proliferate/superfriends deck that """IF'''' it worked together you could ultimate walkers the turn they came out. also works well with oran-rief and all the other +1/+1 goodies like Joraga Warcaller

Ambush commander is a very risky card, it makes your forest lands suspect to creature boardwipes? High risk, high reward. :)

Hakuryu says... #10

High risk indeed but IF there is a hard situation I can sacrifice him and my lands become lands again with his 2nd ability!

Aye, that works. :D

I know. This guy is a synergy all by himself, but only works with Akroma's Memorial on the field. Thanks for the tip anyhow! :)

This bothers me because Freyalise is not the goddess of elves.

Hakuryu says... #14

Well if you read her story, she became something LIKE a Goddess for the Elves Of Llanowar. Also giving her life to protect her whole tribe in Dominaria and participating as one of the Nine Titans at the war versus Yawgmoth and Phyrexia makes her pretty Godlike to me :)

seems like a deck i'd like to play myself. so gz for doing a good job.but what about green sun's zenith?how could you possibly ever forget that card in a green deck?

December 28, 2014 4:41 p.m.

Hakuryu says... #16

Well.... I didn't forget it I just dont have it XD

KingMetalink says... #17

Then order it.

Eldrazi Monument + any token producing permanent, (like freylise) = win. i run it in my freylise deck

December 28, 2014 9:03 p.m.

Did you think about Khalni Hydra. She could entering the battlefield for 1 or 2 mana most of the time, maybe even for free. Would be a great addition to the deck with Green Sun's Zenith i guess.

December 29, 2014 9:30 a.m.

I can second Eldrazi Monument's extreme usefulness, it is definitely a great card to add to any token creator deck. I have also found Burgeoning pretty useful as well as Earthcraft and Mirri's Guile.

(My apologies if I have mentioned any of these before :D)

Hakuryu says... #21

I see all these cards are trully usefull! Exept mayber Mirri's Guile. I have Sensei's Divining Top for that job

Why not Zoidberg.... i mean Nissa Revane and her Nissa's Chosen. Great with Eldrazi Monument and her second + is a realy nice vs aggro. Her Ultimate is a killer, also great with the Monument!

I know and this is why I keep all your suggestions in the maybeboard list. Because its like a small whishlist to get

Door of Destinies seems a better choice over Coat of Arms imo also cheaper cost, against other aggro decks (specifically goblin, sliver etc) you just end up buffing their creatures to match your firepower anyway Adaptive Automaton also another great card for buffing specifics. With that said though Elvish Piper could definitely be interesting with this deck turn 3/4 Kozilek or other interesting fatties ;).
