Abomination of Llanowar
Legendary Creature — Elf Horror
Vigilance, menace
Abomination of Llanowar's power and toughness are each equal to the number of Elves you control plus the number of Elf cards in your graveyard.

Uril, the Miststalker Destroys Everything
3 months ago
Jared took down the final game of the evening with his Elfballing Abomination of Llanowar. Uril, the Mist Stalker got to be 18 power; Bear Umbra got him through a boardwipe but Eldrazi Monument proved to be too much. Jared's made me a believer in Elvish Guidance. He only had three lands most of the game, albeit one was Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx.

Victor's Enchanting Resurrections
5 months ago
Nov 2 Victor, Valgavoth's Seneschal lost again. Jared on Abomination of Llanowar elfballed and was the threat, rebuilding well after my Wrath of God. However, Matt on Eowyn, Shieldmaiden had a sick Taunt from the Rampart hidden away by Windbrisk Heights for an amazing endgame combat trick. The unblockable goading was enough for him to mop us up in two turn cycles.

Admiral Beckett Brass' High Seas Robberies
5 months ago
Nov 2 Admiral Beckett Brass's High Seas Robberies finally won a pretty dominant game. Stole a Circle of Dreams Druid from Jared, who was playing Abomination of Llanowar. Port Razer and Cosmotronic Wave the turn after made for an absolutely devastating combat.

Awesome. I built Abomination of Llanowar the other day and hated it. I made it mill/recursion/voltron but felt moot as I could just be casting from hand and kept milling all the important stuff and none of the 36 elves in deck. Then it devolved into an Overwhelming Stampede deck and... meh. Glad to see a solid elf deck and build from the Craeter! Much better commander choice :)

Balaam__ I agree about building towards a goal that is non-traditional:
Building to win is so Spike, and I wanna win like Timmy or Johnny. I personally think this deck is more Johnny because at first glance.. you might miss some of these key interactions!
I.e.: things like how Zombie Infestation makes bodies that can be tossed for Scourge of Nel Toth, and then replenish your hand with Shadow of the Grave.
Boneyard Scourge is a cool card, but admittedly it isn't eternal format legal... that doesn't mean I won't use his happy ass anyways!
As far as "going second" as a precedent, I would think things like Serum Powder could help do a thing.. I even really like the idea of "going second" but having a strong "turn zero" presence to throw off your opponents (things like the Leylines or Chancellors).
Unfortunately, in competitive settings we both know it's gonna be typical "lame"/boring stuff like:
You splashed blue:
Or you splashed white:
Or, my personal favorite, if you splash green, you can have access to all my favorite removal, Graveyard staples, etc.:
And I wouldn't leave feedback about "How to" without covering the obvious ones, or at least some cards that immediately cross my mind for improvements:
- Relentless Dead
- Fleshbag Marauder
- Surgical Extraction
- Feed the Swarm
- Dismember
- Necroplasm
- Necrogoyf
- Necrotic Ooze
- Mortivore
There is a piece of my heart that wishes older Zombies had a more dangerous presence for this, like (I think) Lord of the Undead or Undead Warchief. Even a little slot for Soulless One.
Hell, I've even considered taking this theme to an EDH setting due to a video I saw of Jimmy Wong on Game Nights where he uses Asmoranomardicadaistinaculdacar as a psuedo-reanimator type build. With the inclusion of , I would especially love to use Bladewing the Risen or his newest iteration from Dominaria United. Initially, what I remembered wanting was "Zombies and Zombie Dragons".
And if we're mentioning that new set, Defiler of Flesh makes this blow up too. So many great "The Rot of the Horde" feeling cards that feed a sensation of an overwhelming wave of Undead minions!
Things like Abomination of Llanowar in a build would also be fun.
Really enjoyed our discussion about this and I'm really curious to see if/what kinda spin you would put on it!

BossUltinuc on Golgari Elves (Commander/EDH)

Okay so I'm new to deckbuilding, especially for EDH so I'm just wondering if anyone has any useful/practical suggestions for this deck. I thought Abomination of Llanowar was a cool card, so I wanted to build around that concept of getting a lot of elves onto the field and my graveyard to really boost its power and toughness.
One thing I'll mention is that, with the exception of cards that are already present in the deck, I don't want to spend more then $3-5 on a single card. So keeping all of this in mind, any suggestions?

Neat, I remember the OG Jarad deck! Have you considered Abomination of Llanowar or not enough elves to make it work?
