Elven Empire deck repairs

Lathril, Blade of the Elves · 100 cards including the commander · 37 lands · colors B, G

Elf bodies, tokens, and Lathril's activated ability. Repair a specific missing function without dismantling the deck's theme. A complete stock list may already meet the starting role targets and need no repair.

What to preserve

Lathril's table-damage ability needs ten untapped Elves. Generic draw and ramp cards can improve a role count while reducing the bodies that make that ability work.

A useful first review

Review the baseline stock list, then use the labeled draw-gap example to see a repair. Save a version and check whether running out of cards still happens.

1. Load the list and check the commander and 100-card count.
2. Set your purchase budget and intended table. Add owned options and protect the engines you intend to keep.
3. Review the actual card text before accepting a change. Save the baseline and edited list as separate project versions.
4. Export the full deck, play it, and attach an observation and next-review date to the tested version.

What to record after playing

Count how often you could keep ten Elves available, and how the deck recovered after a board wipe.
