Locust God

What else could there be? Early reliance on counter spells that also serve to protect Locust. Also included Auriok Stealthsuit for this as well. Sundbird's Invocation to help cast big mana spells late game for big card draw. Once tokens are out, Throne of God Pharaoh, Goblin Bombardment, and Purphoros help with damage. Primal Amulet is great in this deck. Grafdigger's was an include for my meta.
I have the Kindred Discovery/Lab Maniac combo in the sideboard, as I play pretty casual games, but I bring it in whe I know I'm playing more competitive. Also Rebuild is good in a few on my matchups.

Thanks for the comments! It’s really nice to have a response on something you’ve poured a lot of thought into.
I never even noticed Steelshaper’s issues, so great job pointing that out. Something I’m thinking of adding is Eldrazi Monument and Loyal Sentry. That is a fun interaction and Monument just seems great for a deck like this. Any thoughts?

Elspeth Soldier Tribal

Last year, my wife and I welcomed our daughter Elspeth into the world. This, of course, was a great excuse to build an Elspeth Commander deck. The obvious choice is Soldier tribal. The deck-list is fairly tight with no surprises. The only inclusions that might be different are:
-Card Draw via Infiltration Lens and Mind's Eye
-Indestructible via Soul of New Phyrexia and Kindred Boon

Cards I'm Uncertain About:
-Nahiri (My density of artifacts is not super high)
-Coat of Arms (tribal is big right now, so it can help other decks)
-Evangel of Heliod (costly and most of my soldiers are tokens, so no devotion pips)
- Godsend (exile is great, but I'm just not sure...)
