The first Commander deck I bought was the Commander 2014 precon "Guided By Nature", featuring Freyalise, Llanowar's Fury as the commander. I've since edited this deck, and though a lot of the cards remain the same, the strategy, in my opinion, is a lot more refined, allowing the deck to do what it does best, and that's pulling as many Elves to the field in as short a time as possible, to trample over whatever you've got defending.

This is certainly more of a 1v1 Commander deck, but it's played some excellent multiplayer games, either winning or coming out near the top. Like I say in my profile though, I play for fun, and this deck is so much fun. Especially when I see the looks on peoples faces after they drop a board wipe, only for all my Elves to be playable again within the next turn or two.

I swapped out the Planeswalker Freyalise, Llanowar's Fury for Dwynen, Gilt-Leaf Daen because I didn't find that Freyalise added much to the decks overall strategy which I perceived to flood 'em with Elves. Dwynen, on the other hand, was a little more directly tribal, giving all my Elves +1/+1, giving me access to a creature with Reach at a moments notice, and lifegain for every attacking Elf is perfect in a deck that is all about flooding the opponent with Elves.

Despite the deck being less than optimum, I've not yet found a good reason to completely replace a bunch of the cards in this deck. The deck does what it's supposed to do, and any losses I accrue is either down to my own mistakes, or someone playing better than me. I'm sure there are plenty of improvements that I could make, and that's why there is a decent Acquireboard on this deck. Not necessarily because I'm having issues with the deck, but just because I want to try out some new things.
