Help with Elf (EDH)
Commander Deck Help forum

Hello everyone, I am looking for help with my deck:
Elf/Druid tribal
Commander / EDH*
3 VIEWS | IN 1 FOLDER
By way of short explanation, I enjoy the ability of Gilt-Leaf Archdruid and want to see it happen as much as possible, so I built this deck. However, I understand that a deck needs more than one ability to revolve around and therefore am asking for advice from our veteran community!
I'm fairly new to deckbuilding and not familiar with the vast arsenal of possibilities this game offers.
Specifically I am looking for answers to a few questions: 1. How can I make improvements without buying a bunch of $40 or similarly expensive cards to do so? 2. What are some good options for artifact removal and responses to board control (counterspells, limiting effects, etc.) 3. Are there any druids I am missing that would be a crime to leave out of an elvish druid deck? 4. Are there any maybeboard cards I should prioritize acquiring? 5. How can I improve my mana ramping from here? 6. Is there any advice that I haven't asked for that you feel would improve this deck greatly (please share if so!)

1) It is always difficult to make this decision. I would say if you are happy with your deck compared to your playgroup there is no need to just chuck more money at it.
2) Artifact removal in green should not be a worry there are plenty cards to do so i would be more worried about creature removal, Song of the Dryads Acidic Slime & Beast Within are great removal versatile removal for mono green
3) Fyndhorn Elves Boreal Druid Beast Whisperer are solid druids and the first two help with ramp (5)
4) Elvish Harbinger Joraga Treespeaker Mul Daya Channelers Wirewood Channeler
6) Sword of the Paruns Umbral Mantle and Staff of Domination any of these combined with your commander when she as a few counters on her makes unlimited mana! (also will work with Wirewood Channeler , Elvish Archdruid and Priest of Titania )

What sp3ctr3_chelts said. But, I don't worry too much with creature removal in a fast mono green elf build but it can come in handy. Hopefully if it's working you're moving too fast to worry about removing creatures. I don't know how to link my marwyn deck to here but it's called Marwyn elf queen if you want to check it out.
