elf multiplier + stop that.

Main Deck (60 cards)

Sideboard (0 cards)

No sideboard found.

The owner of this deck hasn't added a sideboard, they probably should...

Submit a list of cards below to bulk import them all into your sideboard. Post one card per line using a format like "4x Birds of Paradise" or "1 Blaze", you can even enter just the card name by itself like "Wrath of God" for single cards.


Deck Description

The idea is to get a devoted Druid into play with Shield of the oversoul and Presence of Gond, then bring out Coat of Arms and unlimited stack 1/1s
you then have Howl of the night pack for adding some more firepower around turn 8, and Rhys the redeemed to double your tokens every turn thereafter.

EDIT: added in 2 umbral mantles for the effect in comments.

Didn't check all your cards so I might be overlooking something but you do know that -1/-1 counters will still kill the druid even if it's indestructible?

The point is that Coat of Arms will give him +1/+1 back when the token comes into play, so basically he just switches from being a 0/2 to 1/3 back to 0/2 back to 1/3 and so forth...

Equiping Rhys with Umbral Mantle while Heritage Druid is out causes infinite elf tokens

thanks for the tip, grabbed one of the umbrals from my box and picked another up today at goodgames. i can use it slightly differently to yours as in my post below. think it will still cause some mayhem though

ja the mine mine mine is just there as a joke card , a pair of umbrals could make this much more fun.
tapping rhys with his mana cost to double the tokens, will stack xxx onto Devoted Druid, which i can then tap for the mana, and untap rhys, and then tap again and then ... oh my.

quick query, can anyone see some mana acceleration i can bring to this? safewright quest and farhaven elf are nice. any land subs that might make it brutal?

I find Harrow works better than Safewright for starters. Also try Vines of Vastwood over Avoid Fate. Does the same thing (in essence) but has more uses.

Howl of the Nightpack is waaay too slow, especially in an elfdeck with no manaelves. If you want your mana up, sub them for llanowar elves. This deck is also crying out for some Joraga Warcallers D: Also sub out Shield of the Oversoul for Eldrazi Monument. Muuch nicer in this deck :)

I'd probably also sub 4 forests for 4 Oran-Rief, the Vastwood's. Maybe even 2-4 fetchlands.

Im subbing out cards for a lot of Zenikar Elves, but they fit the theme you're running for. You need as many +1/+1 on your elves to generate more elves. Probably even worth looking at something like Elvish Archdruid, Nissa Revane, and Quest for Renewal for even more untap funtimes
