New poster, All comments are welcome!

Started out as a heavily group-hug oriented deck, but got meaner as I put more work into it. The general idea is to make nice with people early game while making myself a hard target, and then to swarm with tokens or eldrazi, after people have weakened each other with an indestructible Karona. It's important to note that this deck will only ever see multiplayer (Free for All) use. Notable House rules include: No Infinite Combos, and No Mass Land Destruction (Mostly to promote fun for the newer players amongst the group.) Also note that I'm trying to work on a budget here, most expensive card so far is Decree of Pain.

The most threatening Commanders I'll be playing against are Reaper King (Who's ability to vindicate terrifies me) and Rhys the Redeemed (Who can mercilessly exploit any tokens I give him)

Commander
Karona, False God

Planeswalker
Liliana Vess - Mostly because I have one lying around, tutoring is nice.

Group Hug - Read as : "My excuse for a cruddy early game."
Font of Mythos - Not running much blue, and global draw effects make the game not last 2 hours, which is a big plus
Howling Mine
Questing Phelddagrif - Making friends by donating blockers.
Heartbeat of Spring
Seed the Land - I've found this bogs down multiplayer, but I'm hoping with Karona out it'll be incentive to swing with free 4/4's
Saproling Cluster
Dream Halls - My only reservation about this card is I can't hit Eldrazi with it. It does let me play Karona for 'free', and lets me cheat out decrees.
Hypergenesis - My favorite multiplayer card. It simply lets everyone play their deck.
Alliance of Arms
Collective Voyage
Artifacts
Avarice Totem - Can be activated twice to exchange Karona with any other non-land.
Fist of Suns Because paying WUBRG is better than paying 12, also knocks down the cost of Karona if she dies repeatedly.
Darksteel Plate
Lightning Greaves

Creatures
It That Betrays
Ulamog's Crusher
Chancellor of the Forge
Artisan of Kozilek
Wonder - Along with Anger, mostly to be pitched to Saproling Cluster/Zombie infestation
Anger
Avatar of Slaughter - A game ender, will probably get me killed more often than not, but sometimes EDH just runs on for too darned long. Works nicely with multiple combat steps.[/spoiler]

Enchantments
Heartbeat of Spring
Seed the Land
Spirit Loop - This along with Soul Link and Armadillo Cloak provide me with life no matter who controls Karona.
Soul Link
Armadillo Cloak
Teferi's Moat - Keeps Karona/Tokens from swinging on me
Collective Restraint - Much the same as the Moat.
Aggravated Assault - Karona's triggered ability + Tokens make this a game winner
Decree of Silence - Running 4 of 5 decrees mostly because of the Karona theme.
Dream Halls - My only reservation about this card is I can't hit Eldrazi with it. It does let me play Karona for 'free', and lets me cheat out deexcellent
Luminarch Ascension - VERY easy to get counters racked up in multiplayer
Eldrazi Conscription
Vow of Flight -Because getting hit by your own Karona just isn't fun.
Vow of Lightning
Vow of Wildness
Necrogenesis - Graveyard hate + Works well with living death
Zombie Infestation
Parallel Lives - Almost goes without saying, makes me benefit more from the effects that generate tokens for everyone.

Land +Mana Fixing - Mostly budget lands, 10 Tri-lands + Misc utility
Journeyer's Kite
Cultivate
Kodama's Reach
Ghost Quarter - Mostly to pop reliquary towers and generally be a jerk.
Crystal Quarry
Crosis's Catacombs
Darigaaz's Caldera
Dromar's Cavern
Rith's Grove
Treva's Ruins
Arcane Sanctum
Crumbling Necropolis
Jungle Shrine
Savage Lands
Seaside Citadel
Exotic Orchard
Reliquary Tower
Command Tower
Evolving Wilds
Rupture Spire
Terramorphic Expanse
Vivid Crag
Vivid Grove
Vivid Marsh
3x Plains
3x Island
3x Swamp
3x Mountain
3x Forest

Spells
All Suns' Dawn
Hypergenesis - My favorite multiplayer card. It simply lets everyone play their deck.
Collective Unconscious
Decree of Justice
Decree of Pain
Decree of Savagery
Mogg Infestation - Use it to double my own token counts, or to wipe an enemy's board
Goblin Offensive
Martial Coup - Board wipe + Tokens? Very yes.
Conflux - Good on it's own, fantastic with Dream Halls.
Open the Vaults - Because my deck is almost dead in the water without enchants.
Fabricate - Don't run many artifacts, but almost all of them are always useful.
World at War - Second card for multiple phases, mostly for end-game use, as it hits on consecutive turns with rebound.
Praetor's Counsel - Infinite hand size and works well with Dream Halls and/or Hypergenesis
Collective Unconscious -The only non-universal card draw I run.
Living Death - Mass Recursion of Eldrazi, can be worrisome with my low creature #'s
Return to Dust Deals with Whisper Silk Cloak, Soul Conduit, Necrogenesis and other unpleasantness I see too much of.
Relic Crush
Army of the Damned - The biggest single token spell I could find.
Unburial Rites - Primarily for Eldrazi.
Creeping Renaissance - Not as good as Open the Vaults, but still helps recover from an enchantment wipe.
