Maralen Of The Mornsong

Bumpy bump! Updated!
I'd like some final says on this before i let it test it etc so any comments about anything are welcome!

That would even work....

The deck seems good how u have it. Maybe more ways to protect yourself from what other people will tutor. Also I still vote for the rat combo. Play three lands play general. Tutor up thrumming stone and play a rat. Tutor up a land and play thrumming stone. The play out your whole deck with stone and attack with the one you played killing someone.

Bump!
Edited and ready for new input!

Does the minus 3 life from Maralen count towards commander dmg?

Nope, only combat damage counts towards the 21 commander damage.

In addition, Malaren causes loss of life, which is technically not damage being dealt at all!

True, it would trigger  Bloodchief Ascension tho which is nice with  Mindcrank and then simply play  Syphon Soul
