Deck Description

I previously tried a mono green elf deck, and as fun as it was, it was a little lackluster. With the addition of black, in come Glissa and all that fancy black removal. Now, after your opponent plays a Day or Black Sun, there is still a way to rebound and hold them off.
With black, elves is less gimmicky, and a bit more resiliant
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

also, one killer combo: archdruid, copperhorn, and ezuri on the battlefield, with 2 other elves.
before attack step, tap archdruid, trigger ezuri ult.
attack with copperhorn, untap all other creatures you control, tap archdruid again. 8/8 trampling llanowars.
For more fun, add more archdruids.

Deck discussion for g/b standard elves

I played four game against this deck using my mono green elf deck (also standard). The first two game I won with no problem. In the second game you were one turn away from drawing Surgical Extraction. The 3rd game your deck won hands down. So that made me play one more just to see if my first two wins were just luck. The 4th game I won. So what I figured is if your deck can't for the most part get Glissa out in the 3rd to 4th turn than my deck would win. Glissa is a monster and you should have 3 in the deck. In the second game you got Glissa out in the 6th turn and Primeval Titan out in around the 8th turn. I just let Glissa go through and by your 8th turn I had 3 6/6s out. By my 8th turn I had 5 6/6s. And the 9th turns I blocked your primeval and then attacked with all my creatures and that was how the second game ended (which was the best game out of the 4 games). In the 4th game you took out my Essence of the Wild but with my 3xllanowar elves, Elvish Archdruid, and 3x Garruk's Companion your deck couldn't hold them off long enough. You did however get a Primeval Titan and Wurmcoil Engine. But I just let Primeval Titan go through. Even if Primeval Titan had not attacked it would have still ended the same way. Here you can check out the link and see how the two decks stack up against one another. http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=277315
