Thranduil, The Elvenking by Kurs

Format: Commander

Commander: Thranduil, the Elvenking

Bracket: 4

Deck overview

An Elf-ball combo deck built around Thranduil, the Elvenking, who turns the graveyard into a toolbox of activated abilities. The primary line is to assemble Elven mana dorks (Priest of Titania, Elvish Archdruid, Marwyn) plus an untap engine (Umbral Mantle or Staff of Domination) for infinite mana, then win through Staff draw, Ezuri's pump, or Finale/Craterhoof. Thranduil also draws cards on other legendary Elf enters and can copy the mana abilities of any Elf cards milled or discarded. The non-commander Thranduil, Sindarin Liege, is a secondary Elf payoff rather than a hidden commander. Aggressive beats with lords and Elvish Warmaster are the fallback.
