Did you know that Atarka commands a huge army of elves? You didn't? Soon you will know.
Welcome to my 4 Color Elf Tribal Deck. What a name, amirite?
The idea of the deck is to get a bunch of elves out and mass murder my opponent. Key cards for that are both Shaman of the Pack,
Tajuru Warcaller
and Atarka's Command.
Here's a rundown on my mainboad, sideboard and potentional additions:
Main
- Gnarlroot Trapper - "Elvish Mystic" is too strong for standard, so they printed another Elves of Deep Shadow with upside. Oh wizards. Anyway, this guy ramps you to turn 3 on turn 2, ensures fixing and gives you a way to deal damage. You won't believe how many times people forget that this guy gives death touch, it's quite hilarious.
- Beastcaller Savant - our next manadork. First I was like "damn, that guy sucks. Why would you put haste on it?". Well, I know why. You can play a battle land T1, play this guy T2 and still get an additional one drop. Lategame, depending on your hand of course, he's never a dead draw. He works awesome with
Tajuru Warcaller
because he's an Ally and he can be hit with CoCo. Great card.
-
Dwynen's Elite
- 90% of the time you get straight up value out of this guy. No need to explain much, there's a reason he's played in legacy elves.
- Elvish Visionary - when this card is in standard, it's almost always one of the best. 1/1 body that replaces itself. Never a dead draw.
- Nissa, Vastwood Seer
- She helps fixing a little bit and is helpful for the mid/lategame. She's the removal magnet in our deck. Can be hit with Coco for extra Value.
- Shaman of the Pack - the bread and butter of this deck. Doesn't need much explanation, just read the card.
- Sylvan Messenger - another Collected Company of some sorts. He's the reason why this deck can recover from a board whipe or can keep up with any token producer.
-
Dwynen, Gilt-Leaf Daen
- a tribal deck without a lord wouldn't be a tribal deck, amirite? The buff is always nice, the lifegain works wonders sometimes and the added reach can really save your ass when it comes to flyers.
-
Tajuru Warcaller
- end of the curve and end of the game. This guy is just there as an "overrun" in a body. It gets really insane if you have both of these and a Beastcaller Savant. +4+4 for your whole team.
