Hello Tappedout! Originally, I wanted to build a deck that was a near-cEDH Captain Sisay deck. But, due to a mixture of $$ and the timmy in me wanting to put some jank in, I instead made a 75% elf-ball Selvala with multiple combo wins and a stax/hatebears subtheme originally meant for Sisay. The deck still works very well at competitive tables, being a combo deck first but loaded with lots of disruption. You should be swapping between an aggressive or defensive role at the table depending on both your opponents and the cards in your starting hand.

Featured Combos

Umbral Mantle, Sword of the Paruns, or Staff of Domination with a creature that taps for enough mana for infinite Mana and untaps for selvala, allowing you to draw the whole deck. This includes Priest of Titania, Elvish Archdruid, or Wirewood Channeler with enough elves, Selvala, Heart of the Wilds with a big creature, or Karametra's Acolyte with enough devotion. Marwyn, the Nurturer also combos by herself with Umbral Mantle since the equipment increases Marwyn's power.

Mirror Entity and Wirewood Symbiote, Have an x = 1 for Mirror Entity and make Wirewood Symbiote an elf, then return the symbiote to hand to untap a dork that taps for more than 3, then play and repeat also for infinite mana and untaps.

You can also use Temur Sabertooth with Village Bell-Ringer for infinite mana, which is more costly but the cards are good individually. Temur Sabertooth also can combo with Wirewood Symbiote, or Eternal Witness and Vitalize

With infinite untaps and mana, use Fauna Shaman's ability to discard Kozilek, Butcher of Truthto have Selvala mill everyone else but not you. You can also play Green Sun's Zenith failing to find for the same effect or play Angel's Grace to freely mill yourself out.

Other Potential Combos to Consider

Seeker of Skybreak + Illusionist's Bracers + Selvala = Infinite green mana and untaps

Paradox Engine + Sensei's Divining Top, guaranteed paradox win.

Nature's Revolt or Living Plane and either Linvala, Keeper of Silence or Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite prevents your opponents from being able to use their lands.

Upgrading to Competitive

Since this list is high power, I'm leaving this here so that anyone (including myself) looking at this can see some of the swaps you would need to make this deck better.

• Dragonlord Dromoka Replaced with Dosan the Falling Leaf
• Austere Command replaced with Ravages of War (Catastrophe works on a budget)
• Aura Shards replaced with Nature's Claim
• Quirion Elves replaced with Bloom Tender
• Kozilek, Butcher of Truth replaced with Angel's Grace
• Sigarda, Host of Herons replaced with Seedborn Muse or Somberwald Stag. Note: Sigarda can be used as a tech against annihilator effects like Kozilek. Also, you will want a 5-drop as this slot is the only 5 drop that Yisan, the Wanderer Bard can get.
• Sword of the Paruns can be replaced with Staff of Domination. Note: Nature's Revolt can work in this slot as well since it combos with Elesh Norn and Linvala, Keeper of Silence and has some cute interactions with cards like Vitalize since all your lands become creatures that make mana. However, Sword of the Paruns is probably best because it is easier to tutor via Stoneforge Mystic and such. The staff is also a good option in the middle that doubles as a value engine.
• Any of the cards in the Hate sections can be replaced by any other more narrow effect not included like Heroic Intervention, Kataki, War's Wage and Rest in Peace. Swap these in and out with other hate cards depending on your meta!
