Obligatory simic elf deck by jrutt56

Format: Commander

Commander: Thranduil the Strategist

Bracket: 4

Deck overview

This is a Simic Elves deck that fuses heavy landfall value with a dense web of infinite-mana and token combos. Thranduil the Strategist turns every other Elf into a mana dork and floods the board with 1/1 tokens on landfall; the 99's Thranduil, Sindarin Liege // Silvan Rally acts as a second, very similar engine. The primary line is to accelerate into a critical mass of Elves, then break the game open with Umbral Mantle, Staff of Domination, or an Intruder Alarm token loop, converting infinite mana or infinite tokens into a lethal Finale of Devastation or a hasted horde under Concordant Crossroads. The deck also has a genuine fair backup plan: extra land drops from Azusa, Lost but Seeking, Oracle of Mul Daya, and Exploration create enormous token armies with the commander. Overall, it is a combo-first Simic deck with a strong midrange fallback.
