A powerful aura that not many are playing is Alpha Status granting +2/+2 for each other creature that shares a creature type with enchanted creature. Lathril will boost herself exponentially each attack not counting any other elves beforehand, it's a bomb that needs to be answered immediately.
40 creatures is an absolutely good amount, even more could be a acceptable. Elves provide everything you need (card draw, mana, pump effects, anthems, removal within the tribe). It's always recommend to solve everything within the tribe to get all the tribal synergies if possible and elves do all that exceptionally well.
I am a little late to the party, but a quest off renewal, and a beastmasters Ascension would do wonders. Pretty easy to turn both on in the list. The renegade leader gives you a constant overrun as long as you have mana. A whisper shroud cloak for unblockable and protection, if you can't afford it a cover in darkness would be devastating for going wild.
Pact of the Serpent deals damage equal to the target's number of creatures. Sadly, doesn't work well that way unless your opponent is also playing tribal.
There are many possible ways to upgrade this deck, and one very powerful version ends up with 48 elf creature cards. So having 40 creatures is not absurd or ridiculous.
I would look at slate of ancestry for 4 mana discard your hand then draw cards equal to the amount of creatures you control is dirty also I have like 14 one mana elves in my deck which is crazy because almost every hand your gonna have a good chance at playing a elf on turn 1 also a back up win condition should be torment of hail fire because if you can make a ton of mana torment of hail fire with kill most players

One little pet card that I've been running is Mind slash. Fantastic outlit for tokens and being able to see an opponen'ts hand and ripping a card from it is always a pleasure.
Hi, I recently added the deck and making it some changes, but got a big Q: You said that doesn’t matter that the tokens having summoning sickness to activate the Lathrils ability, obviously Lathril must no have summoning sickness, but some other players told me that also the other elves(or tokens) must haven’t the summoning sickness. Help me 😵💫
Since the elves don't have the ability they don't care about summoning sickness. If the ability were on the elves themselves, using the tap symbol in the cost on each of them, it would matter. You can tap Lathril and fresh elf tokens to get the benefit!
No Woodland Cemetery ??? Circle of Dreams Druid, built in Gaea's Cradle. Realmwalker, more to cast. If you have a big Elf or can make one maybe a Mercy Killing can help to produce a shit tonne more elves. And plenty of GREAT Golgari Legendary Elves to use as well. Although relatively expensive a Wirewood Channeler might work to make more Black Mana if you need it. Especially if you include more black/Golgari stuff.
Idk if I would include deathrite shaman he only works if you have lands in the grave and I dont see anything here that dumps things in the grave your better off using birds of paradise
Um. If I may post a possible correction: (may be addressed later, but just mentioning at this point in the video) Pact of the serpent isn't quite an elf fireball. You chose a creature type, and the target players draws x and loses x, where x is the amount THEY have of that creature type. Works well against other tribal decks, or gives you draw power. But it's not quite an "elf flavored fireball" as described
I'd recommend a voltron approach, turning your small elves in to bigger threats. Marwyn the Nuturer would be ideal as well - the goal would be to turn small creatures in to bigger threats. Beastmaster's Ascension, elf lords... it comes together well.

Dude the way you break this down and enthusiastically talk strategy and other options is refreshing. Great video! Subbed!
Thanks and welcome aboard! Plenty of other great deck decks and tips on the channel!

eldrazi monument as a must-have was a great shoutout. insane value for that card in this format. Won me multiple games my first few nights.
love to hear it
Good video, like the idea of having two different build/strategy suggestions 👍

Everytime I look a deck up you've made it, I look to you for new decks because we have the exact same playstyle but I hate deckbuilding
Another Pog Tuneup Chris! Also got my setup for spelltable working!
Video start at @2:30
Door of destiny is a fantastic way to go tall and wide
Hey killer deck I kinda been in the fence about elves cause well......anyways now I wanna build it just for fun at least once
Totally awesome :D Loved the deck! :)
Thanks! Lathril is a surprisingly powerful commander that can accommodate a lot of strategies
Suggest adding alpha authority and staff of domination, and selvala heart of the wild
Cool video 😎 keep up the good work
Pact of the Serpent deals damage equal to the target's number of creatures. Sadly, doesn't work well that way unless your opponent is also playing tribal.
Fight...but.... if you use elves to infinite mana AND Cast sylvan offering put 100 tokens in the oponente side .....then use pact serpent AND you win
Hearing vigilance and not haste hurt me XD
Lathril's tap ability is dangerous with Grafted Exoskeleton tap for 10 infect to each opponent
It doesn’t work like that sadly
I scored an Allosaurus Shepherd recently, I added to my deck...
That’s awesome!

skullclamp wont do much, lots of anthems, unless you remove your anthems
Lies. Been playing lathril for a few months atp and clamp is one of the best cards in the deck
Where is the direct link for purchase list off tcg or cardkingdom
Why didn't you add seedborn muse so you can deal 10 damage a turn as well as gaining 10 life?
i know of another card to put into the deck urzas incubator
Id switch out Loxdon Hammer for Shadowspear. Shadowspear is cheaper over all but its gives a +1/+1 in instead of +3/+0
Add alpha status
Ideally I would have both.
i turned my elf deck into an abzan build instead.
The tuned decklist is both tribal and voltron combined? I am a bit confused.
I am trying to make only the tribal style
Out voltron cards AND add crea like eladamri lord of leaves, aluren. Génesis wave, staff of domination etc
The Link for the lists does not work any longer. Can you check on those or provide a decklist in text format?

@@CommanderMechanic Thank you very much Chris!

Your friends are wrong. Summoning sickness only matters if they are tapping for their own abilities. But another card's ability can tap them

Mercy killing is hybrid white so won't be legal in a golgari build
@@charlied8284 which is of zero consequence since I play with friends, so it works fine.

If you had the choice would you replace End-Raze Forerunners with Kamahl, Heart of Krosa?
I think it's a fine 1:1 substitution, sure.

Thanks for the clarification!
I’d use it on myself since this deck by has decent life gain.
Any cost effective ways for Elves with this comander looking around $200 cash.
I'd recommend a voltron approach, turning your small elves in to bigger threats. Marwyn the Nuturer would be ideal as well - the goal would be to turn small creatures in to bigger threats.
Beastmaster's Ascension, elf lords... it comes together well.
If it's in your budget, get Akroma's Memorial. Your elves will love it.
Add More power cards like...staff of domination...umbral mantle......aluren ....cloudstone curio....bolas Citadel.....génesis wave......
ELDRAZI SMASH!

your decklists dont work :)
Ur sponsor abuses their employees and commits tax fraud. you know that right?
Is there a source for that? Im not agreeing or disagreeing, I just want to see where that info is coming from
Do they abuse their employees, or are their employees whining lazy people who expect everyone and everything to bend over backwards to accommodate their failings?
