This is my current (As of 3/3/16) Commander/EDH deck for Derevi.

Derevi is both my very first commander and the first deck I ever owned, and

It makes for an interesting deck-building question: "How can I make a competitive Derevi deck without using stax?"

Currently, the deck applies two main strategies:

1. Combo out to infinity and beyond
2. Beat face. Wreck shit.

It's slow early in the game, but picks up speed during the midgame. It's meant to be faster than a stasis strategy, either killing due to comboing out, or combat damage.

The deck relies on extensive synergies between ETB triggers + flickering and combat damage triggers.

Secondary strategies involve a lot of control via spot removal and counterspells, card advantage, and reanimating.

Note: I understand that some of these cards are actually worth quite a bit! After all, how can someone with a Magic budget of $30 a month afford a Sensei's Divining Top? My answer to you, dear reader, is Zendikar Expeditions. Namely being the asshole who pulls one during the Pre-Release.
