Deck Description

So me and my friends quite like playing Commander. We also like playing archenemy. However, we also argue a lot about who should be archenemy, because some people's decks are not multiplayer-viable (like a single-target mill EDH. I know, crazy, right?) so this is my deck I made to be the "generic archenemy deck". Hope it looks alright in people's eyes. It's just for a bit of fun, and hopefully can handle three people at once...
Uses the Trample Civilisation Underfoot archenemy cards.

How to Play

Omnath, Locus of Mana has the great potential of stockpiling your green mana between turns, which makes up for a variety of combinations.
One way to win is power up Omnath through the green mana increasing his power, then using abilities such as Rogue's Passage, Whispersilk Cloak or Bellowing Tanglewurm to attack with little resistance.
Helix Pinnacle means that the opponents have a 100-mana countdown (which you can just stockpile on Omnath until needed), making an alternative way to win.
Arbor Colossus, Archweaver, and Silklash Spider are creatures used to counteract flying threats, though there are other cards like Plummet, Squall Line, and Prey Upon.
Steel Hellkite is in there to cripple one of the opponents with its activated ability, and since you should have an abundance of mana, the costs shouldn't be to hard to achieve.
Hall of Gemstone is a powerhouse in commander, due to so many decks relying on multiple colour cards, whilst cards like Bower Passage, Alpha Authority, and Whispersilk Cloak limit blocking power from multiple people. Sylvan Primordial is very fun, especially when it's 3-on-1...
Cards like Withbane Orb, Crawlspace, Asceticism, and Dosan are used to protect your side of the field via hexproof, minimizing attackers vs. you, and stopping green control from countering everything.

Deck discussion for Omnath, Archenemy Commander

I dig it. Though if I had to make a suggestion, it would be to add a Spidersilk Armor. It gives all your creatures +0/+1 and reach. It's a main staple in all of my green decks. Here are a few other things you might like:

Garruk Wildspeaker
Boundless Realms
Collective Voyage
Green Sun's Zenith
Primal Surge
Tooth and Nail
Druidic Satchel
Citanul Flute
Nylea, God of the Hunt

I've got a big stompy Naya EDH deck you can look at for inspiration if you want. Monocolor commander can be tricky, but damn fun if you pull it off. ^^

They all look like awesome cards, definitely something to add when I get them. Most of my decks are made from what's lying around before looking for trades. I have the Zenith, but lack spare copies of thinks like Garruk at the moment, but will keep an eye out for them. Thanks for the recommendations.

It's no prob. That's how most of my decks used to come into existence. Then I bought cards to tweak here and there until I was happy. :P
