id put in like 1-4 of these (depending on which 4! your budget etc)

and then take out 1-4 cards that pull creatures out of your graveyard and put them into your hand.

Condemn also seems particularly mean to use against Elesh Norn (I assume if their commander?)

Actually the deck is a Ghave commander, but there are tutors like Sisay and Worldly Tutor to get Elesh.

Just a quick question as a mere side note: Is it reasonable to have a Void Stalker as a method of commander removal? Can commanders be shuffled into the library anyway?

well that was my thinking, you specifically referenced Elesh norn, it seemed like A Dictate of Heliod or other similar high power high cost anthems would probably sort out Elesh Norn and similar but you would still be vulnerable to wrath effects.

So, maybe if I went with enchantment anthems to ramp my creatures? How many (and which) cards should be taken out for this endeavor? Protection from Elesh Norn and the like would certainly pertain to my deck's success. Should I add wrath effects myself, to discourage AoE removal?

Thanks as always,

Thanks for your quick reply! Glaring Spotlight is a great idea, as is adding more counter spells. I am not specifically going after AoE removal, more just "That card is annoying me, it's got to go." and likewise. AoE removal is very effective against my deck, however, with all the */2 or less creatures.

Relatively speaking, I am new to the EDH environment, as may be clear from my deck. I do not know many other EDH players, so I usually end up in 1v1s. I feel like my deck is alright in some situations, but in others is just too easy to squash. Should I go to a game store to play with my deck, I get pummeled by Elesh Norn or likewise mad. I need help with this deck, clearly neutral. I would love constructive criticisms; and help with the remodeling of this deck if it's necessary. Feel free to browse my inventory. My budget is low, and I have spent very little on this deck so far. I am going with sort of a 'light control' theme.

If you need more info, just ask. smile
Thanks for your help! I appreciate it!

Just built this deck for casual play, don't think it has any real potential. Trying to use it against a Captain Sisay Legendary deck, but desperately need help!

Here's what I can figure:

Rest in Peace helps against grave decks, and does not harm creature tokens too much. Isochron Scepter is for Wake the Reflections, Sundering Growth, or especially Druid's Deliverance. Recently discovered its playing value. Suggestions are welcome! This deck is still in Beta testing, if you want to call it that tongue.

Here's the link to my deck:  http://deckbox.org/sets/434324

Or here are the cards if you prefer:
11 Forest
1 Grove of the Guardian
11 Plains
1 Cathedral Sanctifier
1 Doomed Traveler
1 Slime Molding
2 Wake the Reflections
1 Call of the Conclave
2 Druid's Deliverance
1 Heroes' Reunion
1 Intangible Virtue
1 Isochron Scepter
2 Rest in Peace
2 Sundering Growth
1 Attended Knight
1 Centaur Healer
1 Champion of Lambholt
2 Court Street Denizen
1 Crusader of Odric
1 Rootborn Defenses
1 Seller of Songbirds
1 Spectral Procession
1 Alive // Well
1 Captain's Call
1 Elgaud Inquisitor
1 Eyes in the Skies
1 Healer of the Pride
1 Ivy Lane Denizen
1 Phantom General
2 Scion of Vitu-Ghazi
1 Coursers' Accord
1 Phyrexian Rebirth
1 Trostani's Judgment
1 Risen Sanctuary
1 Trostani's Summoner
1 Horncaller's Chant
