Hi everyone. Here I have a decklist I'm putting together for my fiance. She requested Nath as a general. I'm not sure what to classify this deck as. I suppose it's something not unlike aggro-control? It primarily creates and casts creatures to feed to sac engines. Initial testing has shown that this deck is very aggressive and is able to pump out an army quickly. I've included a hearty removal package for board control. I'd very much appreciate any help improving this list.
Once I was given a general to work with, I decided I didn't want to go all out stax, so I've deliberately omitted things like Smokestack or Braids. Grave Pact, however, is in there just because it's too good to not have it. Possessed Portal is probably as far down the "stax hole" as I'm willing to go.
You know, it makes sense that you would bring up ramp in a green deck, but to be honest, the curve is so low and I hit enough lands/rocks every game I rarely ever sit there mana screwed, wishing I had ramp.
Memory Jar is pretty clutch. I'll try and find a slot for it. I also like Decree of Pain. Myojin...I'm on the fence about. He's pretty strong, for sure, but he's also pretty fat amd expensive.
you really do need more lands, even with such a low curve. 37 is probably the lowest you could really get away with. craterhoof behemoth is a good wincon, if the deck seems to be lacking a finisher. sangromancer is beyond ridiculous, better than things such as wellwishers. This is especially useful if the decks tends to draw fire from all of the other players (as it likely will).
If you run one land-fetch perilous forrays is reusable.
All in all, the deck looks pretty solid, and adding myojin might be good, as it can sit around indestructable until you need it.
Hey guys so I've actually moved on from commander on to 60 card decks so I don't have any commander decks.

WBRTariel, Hellraiser StaxWBR
Annul is really good in EDH
Decree of Pain is the best sweeper in the format.
Liliana's Caress and Megrim are right on theme.
Possessed Portal is a really interesting card that would probably be decent here.
I've also counted just 35 lands which is really on the low side, even for a green deck, especially for a green deck not playing really any ramp. Where's your Cultivate, Kodama's Reach, Explosive Vegetation, Skyshroud Claim, Seedguide Ash, Reap and Sow, Mwonvuli Acid-Moss, and Crop Rotation?
EDIT: Also Myojin of Night's Reach.
EDIT #2: Smokestack, Grave Pact, Dictate of Erebos?

Phyrexian tower is good way to get mana and helps with grave pact effects
Mindslicer is mandatory I feel
Liliana of the veil makes lots of tokens
Bloodghast and Reassembling skeleton are two favorites of mine
Death cloud and Pox are insane with nath
