Forced Combat with Najeela as Commander

I'm a fan of quirky casual decks and always wanted to form a Forced Combat themed EDH deck. Finally got down to 2 versions below with Najeela, the Blade-Blossom as the Commander:
Combo
This version is more combo centric and has the capabilities to generate infinite mana to go for the win. There's a small Blink sub-theme as enabler to achieve victory and give opponents plenty of creatures.

This version is more straightforward with over 20 cards focusing on giving opponents creatures, while I sit on the sideline (behind my pillowfort) and watch the Royal Rumble.

Would like suggestions and feedback:
1) Which version would you play?
2) Any card suggestions to improve either decks?
3) Using Najeela, I can give opponents extra combat to help finish off each other (when forced combat effects are in play), the "lifelink" that Najeela grants is a headache though so am considering Tainted Remedy type effects too.
Look forward to your inputs. Thanks in advance.
I forgot to say: maybe some monarch too. My thantis deck has surprised many Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker combo decks by simply having Marchesa's Decree no one wants to waste the removal till they realize infinite 1/1's are too costly.

Thanks for your suggestions Gleeock. You're raised some good points above. Will check out your Forced Combat decks too for more ideas.

Thx. My decks do not get updated nearly enough on tappedout here. But even the old versions still hold up pretty well. Marisi has become more of a enchantress, gods, & evasive weenies deck. Enchantments often double duty as weenie makers & enchantress draw engines. It plays incredibly different when I am playing some goofy token-spitter with backup enchantments... Alot of fun with the under-the-radar, low removal priority approach. It shows pretty resilient against most decree, boardwipe, or control shells. & has a pretty difficult time against utility creature builds (seedborn muse + tapdown stuff)
