Deck Description

I have edited my run of Relic Rush for Besieged.

I was not running Fauna Shaman-Vengevine in my old Relic Rush (it was a bit budgeted). I will still avoid running these two cards.

Initial differences from Relic Rush:
-No Vengevine (Normally 4 Main deck).
-No Fauna Shaman (Normally 4 Main deck).
-No Molten-Tail Manticore (Normally 1 Sideboard).
-2 Main deck Nissa Revane.
-4 Main deck Nissa's Chosen.
-2 Main deck Emeria Angel.
-4 Devout Lightcasters Sideboard (normally 2 or 3)

First round changes:
-I removed Kor Outfitter for Brass Squire (1 Main Deck 1 Sideboard),
-I removed a single Nissa's Chosen for a Sword of Feast and Famine (Main deck).
-Removed Emeria Angel for Stoneforge Mystic (2 Main deck).
-Removed 2 Devout Lightcaster for 2 Mirran Crusader (Sideboard).

Second Round Changes:
-Remove 3 Nissa's Chosen.
-Remove 2 Nissa Revane.
-Remove 3 Forest.
-Add 2 Arid Mesa.
-Add 2 Shimmer Myr.
-Add 3 Signal Pest.

Third Round Changes:
-Remove 2 Stoneforge Mystic
-Add 1 Leyline of Vitality
-Remove 1 Plains
-Add 2 Forest

Fourth Round Changes: (3 current open slots)
-Removed Brass Squire and added Kor Outfitter (Sideboard and Main deck).
-Removed 2 Forest and added 2 plains.
-Removed Leyline of Vitality.
-Removed Shimmer Myr.
-Added 3 Goldenglow Moth.
-Removed 1 Nature's Claim and added 1 Divine Offering (Sideboard).

Fifth Round:
-Remove 3 Forest
-Add 2 Contested War Zone
-Add 1 Inkmoth Nexus
-Remove 1 Leonin Arbiter (Sideboard)
-Remove 1 Tajuru Preserver (Sideboard)
-Remove 1 Obstinate Baloth (Sideboard)
-Add 3 Condemn (Sideboard)

Thoughts:
I am running Quest, and relying quite heavily upon it. The deck runs on its speed and only its speed. I lack late game and have almost no answers before Sideboard. I am considering adding Hero of the Bladehold to the Main Deck in interest of having a bit of a later hitter that is another battle cry.

I am always up for more changes and advice on this deck, it is my competitive running standard deck right now, everything else I have put together is fun or just a run around.

I recommend taking out Nissa and Nissa's Chosens, while they give you good blockers that keep coming back you don't really have enough elves to make them shine. You might also consider Accorder's Shield. A 0 drop that gives +0/3 and vigilance for an equip cost of 3 is pretty good.

Actually changes were made earlier today before going out to play this afternoon. The changes made actually removed the Elfs and Planeswalkers.
