Commander: Thranduil, the Elvenking

Bracket: 4

Deck overview

This deck is a Sultai Elf graveyard engine built around Thranduil, the Elvenking. The plan is to put key Elves into the graveyard and then use Thranduil on the battlefield as a copy of all their activated abilities. You fill the yard with Buried Alive, Jarad's Orders and Gifts Ungiven, then cast Thranduil for five mana and activate the abilities you have collected. The main win is infinite mana and infinite draw with Thranduil copying Devoted Druid, Incubation Druid and Zameck Guildmage, then closing with an overrun or drain effect. Backup wins are fair Elf combat with Coat of Arms, Elvish Archdruid, Ezuri, Renegade Leader and Lathril, Blade of the Elves, plus drain from Poison-Tip Archer and Elderfang Venom. Thranduil also draws cards when another legendary Elf enters, which keeps your hand full while you assemble the yard.
