This was my first ever commander deck. It started out as the 2017 Precon and has been heavily upgraded from there. I wanted to keep this deck in the spirit of EDH... Big creatures swinging for the win. While the deck is slow due to the nature of dropping big creatures and having a high avg. CMC it is still very powerful and if left unchecked will win by a large margin easily. I run 2 combo wincons to allow for different lines of play depending on the meta/pod I am playing in. The power level of this deck is roughly around 6-7 and can hold it's own with higher power levels, assuming the meta is not combo out by turn 6 to end the game. The deck is certainly not optimized though it is tuned for it's power level.

With that said the deck is running light on draw as well as it's removal suite which will need to be addressed at some point. I am debating on adding instant and sorcery speed draw which will help the speed of the deck tremendously. As for adding removal, having just a bit more will help smooth out the early game while you are still ramping and setting up for mid game. This current iteration of the deck is tuned a bit more for my specific playgroup. Adding the removal would really be for playing in the wild. With that said the cards that I will be adding from the sideboard will help with draw (And in ways that get around card draw restrictions like Narset, Partner of veils) as well as ramp, allowing some of the current ramp cards to be replaced if need be.

While this is not my normal style of play it is a deck I love and see's play in my normal rotation of decks quite a bit.

Wincon-

Savage Ventmaw + Aggravated Assault = unlimited combat phases

Maskwood Nexus + The World Tree = Puts all dragons on the battlefield at the same time, allowing to swing out or deals direct dmg with Terror of the Peaks or Scourge of Valkas
