Elfball by user9574363

Format: Commander

Commander: Marwyn, the Nurturer

Bracket: 4

Deck overview

Marwyn is a mono-green elf-ball combo deck that uses its commander as an untap-able mana engine. The main plan is to flood cheap Elves, grow Marwyn with every Elf ETB trigger, then use Staff of Domination, Sword of the Paruns, or Umbral Mantle to loop Marwyn into infinite green mana. Staff then draws the deck into Walking Ballista, while Umbral Mantle can also turn Marwyn into a one-shot commander-damage threat. Fallback wins come from Finale of Devastation and Triumph of the Hordes on a wide elf board. There is no hidden commander; Marwyn is the central ramp and combo hub, although redundant elf mana engines keep the deck functional without her.
