Shalai was my first commander deck I ever built. She started off pretty janky, but over the past year she has gotten more refined. She is a lot of fun, but can be a little mana intense, so lately I have been trying to lower my mana curve a little.

The goal of this deck is to ramp up and cast some threatening creatures loaded with 1+/1+ counters. Your opponent won't be able to target the creatures, so a board wipe will be their only option which is why indestructibility is important (Inspiring Call, Unbreakable Formation, Dauntless Escort). You can use Shalai's ability as a mana sink to buff your team (which is why I added Wilderness Reclamation recently). Shalai is really fragile, so ways to protect her are really important (Mother of Runes, Dawn Charm, Angelic Renewal, Dauntless Bodyguard). I have been toying with several proliferate cards from War of the Spark and they seem pretty great so far (Evolution sage is a beast).
