Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This Sultai Elf deck goes wide with Elves and uses landfall to make tokens, +1/+1 counters, and cards. Thranduil, the Elvenking is the engine: he copies all activated abilities of Elf cards in your graveyard and draws two then discards one whenever another legendary Elf enters. The primary win is combat with a pumped Elf army or Simic Ascendancy reaching 20 growth counters via proliferate. A secondary line puts Devoted Druid and Timberwatch Elf in the graveyard with Buried Alive so Thranduil can tap for mana, untap, and pump. Rite of Replication acts as a late finisher.
