Sultai Tribal by Grimothy

Format: Commander

Commander: Maralen, Fae Ascendant

Bracket: 2

Deck overview

This Sultai list is an Elf/Faerie value deck built around Maralen's exile-and-free-cast engine. The primary plan is to flood the board with cheap Elves, use Maralen and changelings to keep the tribal count high, and convert that board into a Lathril-based drain clock. Secondary lines use Jarad plus Formless Genesis to sacrifice a huge changeling token, and Gaze of Granite plus Poison-Tip Archer to turn a mass wipe into table-wide drain. Lathril functions as the alternate hidden commander from the 99. Maralen provides the card advantage; her theft effect is opportunistic rather than the deck's primary plan. The deck is mid-speed, interaction-heavy, and wins by attrition plus one big drain turn.
