TriusMalarky Shamans are so good. My favorite tribe, they have so many spell-on-a-stick creatures, though they're lacking in supporting their own tribe unfortunately. My faves to put out with the Emissary are Tilonalli's Summoner, Fauna Shaman, Bloodline Shaman, Wild Cantor (A druid, but it fits in this deck, Deathrite Shaman, Dark-Dweller Oracle, Sakura-Tribe Elder, Rix Maadi Reveler, and Vexing Shusher (Phenomenal card. I started playing during Lorwyn and the shusher was the first shaman I fell in love with. Unfortunately, a lot of the spell on a stick shamans are in the three and up range, though with Molten Echoes on the field I net four mana, which gives me a lot more range.

I think if i add in Rhythm of the wild as you suggested I could probably fit in fauna shaman or bloodline along with some persisters. Idk though, you've given me a lot to think about.

Elvish Guidance is a fun one with Arbor Elf. I also really like Bloodline Shaman and Descendants' Path for card draw in green! Gilt-Leaf Archdruid is also extremely fun for turning your mana dorks into late-game cantrips, and stealing people's lands. :)

Elfball was the first EDH deck I ever built, and I still have my list here: How Aluring~~ (Competitive Aggro/Combo Elves) It's a little out of date, but it has some fun ideas and unique cards.

Never seen a shaman deck before! Very cool. You might like these: Runed Stalactite, Amorphous Axe, Birthing Boughs, Irregular Cohort, Second Harvest, Evolutionary Leap, Heirloom Blade, Illusionist's Bracers, Thornbite Staff, Bloodline Shaman, Congregation at Dawn, Ghired, Conclave Exile, Wort, the Raidmother, Vitu-Ghazi Guildmage, Circle of Elders, Dwarven Thaumaturgist (he can pop your eggs + he looks funny)

I highly recommend swapping in Ezuri, Renegade Leader for your commander over Freyalise. His regenerate ability helps a ton against board wipes, and he is a "win the game now" button with the Overrun ability. If you make that swap, you'll have access to Overrun from the command zone, so you could cut the spells you have that do the same thing and make room for more elves.

If you do make the swap, and you like infinite combos, pick up an Umbral Mantle. Mantle + any elf that makes 4+ mana (usually Priest of Titania or Elvish Archdruid, but also sometimes Marwyn or Viridian Joiner) = infinite green mana, which, with Ezuri, makes any creature a lethal trample attack. It's also cheap!

A couple other cheap Elf synergies:
Quirion Ranger - it's in legacy elves for a reason!
Bloodline Shaman - to find you more elves
Dwynen's Elite - 2 elves for one!
Elvish Guidance - turns your land into a Priest of Titania
Primal Command - deals with pesky noncreatures and is a tutor

My elf deck is here if interested: How Aluring~~ (Competitive Aggro/Combo Elves)

I honestly don't recall why I never snagged an Eladamri for the deck, Azeworai. There're a few things that he nonbo's with in the deck, but that's really just a minor inconvenience compared to the value he brings. Thanks for reminding me of his existence.

So far as the Bloodline Shaman goes, I'm not really enthusiastic enough about it that I'd want to cut something for it. I've considered Descendants' Path for the deck in the past, and that's probably what I'd opt for before the shaman.

I'm sorry, Eladamri, Lord of Leaves is absent?

Bloodline Shaman also seems lovely.

Bloodline Shaman , Etchings of the Chosen , Path of Ancestry , and the Kindred cycle from commander 2017 are cards to look at
