Description

{"ops":[{"insert":"With the Core Set theme, I wanted to build a deck that represents the core of what I love about Magic: the simple joy of playing a pile of Elves & swinging out. As such, there's nothing fancy about this deck. It's Elves, anthems, and overruns with some protection, recursion, and card draw to help keep up with multiple opponents.\n"}]}
