My work on upgrading the elven empire precon. Unfortunately its definitely no longer budget but it better reflects a 7-8 power level pod and has become much more consistent while also maintaining flavor. I love Golgari and the flavor it brings to the table and Lathril really brings the heat with her "Death Elves". Lathril is effectively a pseudo, elven tribal, Najeela, the Blade Blossom, especially when Lathirl is buffed up properly in lines with alpha status and any other "elves matter" buff cards. I have tried to build this deck with cards that create the potential for many alternate lines as I love discovering new ones and this Commander screams potential to me. That being said the main lines are go wide, tap and drain with lathrils second ability. Always an ongoing work but in the meantime... hope you all enjoy!
