I wanted to make a Derevi EDH deck that both played how Derevi is supposed to be played while also still letting the opponents play. The goal of the deck is to tax and tap the opponent's while I grow an army of soldiers to wipe them out. The deck could use some refinement/improvements, if you have recommendations leave a comment.
