So this deck is because F** you that's why. This is what happens when your buddy builds a stax deck so mean that you have to build a deck fast enough to punch them in the face. When oppression is the name of the game, and you need to sht all over your opponents by bringing out the Heliod/Walking Balista combo so fast all they can do is give you the finger then look no further. If that's not enough how about pulling out a combo that that says to hell with you, and all the spells you want to play then this deck has just what you need. Because at the end of the day screw you, and your damn taxes!

This is my version of an Alela commander deck.

Any suggestions welcome, and please up vote the deck if you like it.
