LATHRIL, BLADE OF THE ELVES (new kaldheim spoiler card) deck shell rough draft

She is a 2/3 for 4 with menace who creates tokens equal to the combat damage she does to players, and can tap, tap 10 elves: drain the table for 10, you gain 10.

this needs help brainstorming possible combos!

Nath is labeled as a commander since Lathril is not yet available on site.

Can this be made into a semi-competitive combo deck, without making Lathril irrelevant?

I've realized that elves don't really have many token generators, and no token apparent token combos outside of selesnia. Is it possible to hit a critical mass of elves (10) before turn 5, with an Untap ability like seedborn muse to drain the table in a turn cycle?

Here's a stream of consciousness, of sorts, of combos. I can seem to find a way to make the commander relevant, and I am hoping she isn't just a mediocre option for an when an elf aristocrats deck has nothing better to do.

a terrible combo: Flourishing Defenses + Phyrexian Plaguelord + Doubling Season (any token doubler) would create an engine for finite elves, but not only does this cost 15 mana, which is ridiculous, it also makes the commander almost irrelevant, as it already wipes the board and creates infinite elves, and is dependent on opponents having an established board-state to target, else this becomes an infinite etc combo. She could speed up the clock by draining the table with Untap effects, but thats another 4 mana for her and 2 for a Quirion Ranger or Wirewood Symbiote . This is sort of a combo, but damn is it a shitty one.

Lys Alana Huntmaster + 2,1cmc elf dorks + Concordant Crossroads + Cloudstone Curio : this would make infinite elves, but it is 13 total mana with the commander not including tap Untap effects like seed born to drain the table during the turn cycle.

Ambush Commander + Ashaya, Soul of the Wild could turn almost your whole board into elves, but with the commander this is 14 mana.

Prowess of the Fair really seems to have potential, seemed to have potential, but then I realized it has a non token clause, a reasonable word of balancing that shuts off a great many combos.

I think a better, albeit more casual, route to take this deck would be Voltron. treat Lathril as a Voltron commander to generate tokens, playing combat tricks and pump spells to gain significant value, and untap effects to abuse abilities her once she hits critical mass. This both incorporates the commander as a relevant helm to the deck, while also profiting on her abilities. Part Voltron tokens, part elf ball Untap. Sort of like Skullbriar meets Krenko??
