You should have "Gaea's cradle" in, I'm sure it'll produce more mana than a normal forest.Though I know how hard it is to get your hands on one.Interesting deck. Though I don't see how it can stand up in early game.Plus a simple burn deck, or an enchantment destroyer could ruin your game.

Overwhelming stampede would be really usefull if I had more bigger creatures then punny elves.What I'm testing with Cloudstone Curio,is a infinite mana combo.you have nettle sentinel, heritage druid and a llanowar on gameTap all elves to activate heritage druid (3 mana)play another heritage druid (2 mana) -> return llanowar -> nettle untapsplay the llanowar again -> (1mana left) -> return the tapped heritage druidand you just started again on the beggining and have 1 extra mana.Rise and repeat. Emrakul at turn three. (though I'm playing with kozilek that has less mana casting cost since I'm not sure the likelihood of this combo)
Not sure why would you use "chord of calling" when "green sun's zenith" is so much better...
Tweak: Taking two arbour elfs, for two rofellos. Ps. Rofellos is also a druid.
7 lands... in a 69 card deck? Perfect! never seen such good ration in my life. 7/69 that's like... wait... that's "about" 1 land per 10 cards... Yes you have a lot of good mana producers. but, imagine you get a no land hand... then you draw 6 cards and get a lucky land + Llanowar. you play it. BAM, lightning in it... now you have nothing to play, four cards on hand... and your player is packed with more removal till you get that second lucky land... You could at least make it a land each 7 cards... 9 lands in a 63 card deck... that would look a tinsy bit more balanced... But I have to say, if this was for casual, i bet you would win every time, elves are unbeateble. Although i really prefer a 2 land hand minimum... that's a 17-18 in a 60 deck. oh and I also keep it 60 car deck... makes it more concistent
Wow, never though a two mana generating land could be so fierce ^^ cool!
Well, I belive that's possible with grapeshot elves... Actually I sometimes play with Emrakul instead of Grapeshot as my winning card But the entire deck haves to be built for the combo. Link: http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=115544
I love how you placed both immaculate Magistrate and Bramblewood Paragon to place counters on warcaller! +1 for that But alluren and Concordant crossroads? i know they are incredible cards but aluren goes with draw abilitys and combos, and concordant crossroads... well... they're risky. I believe if you want to keep alluren in your deck you should at least add 3 or 4 glimpse of nature, that way you can at least win agaist your opponent in draw power, and if you get lucky maybe you can get an early joraga warcaller and maggistrate and pump your elves. Other then that, awesome deck, if you'd like you can check my decks, I always liked elves so I have a ton of them ^-^
xD you like tokens? Check this deck http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=208320
HA! xD made me remember when I was playing my hydra's elfs deck agaisnt a birthing pod deck... I had a 224/224 Primordial hydra and couldn't attack because of GLissa xD the game ended up as as draw... both of us had removal but strangely no one got draw it on time (my opponet had doom blade I had Beast within)
Yeah you're right, glimpse and visionary/symbiote are really good drawing abilitys but Infiltrator lens and taunting elf can work too, i kinda prefer glimpse, it has sorta nostalgia to it =P
Put it on sideboard =P it's only agaist blue counter decks.
And how about summoning trap? Just for the lols, 1st turn forest -> Llanowar elves opponet plays force of will You play summoning trap, get emrakul, place it on the table, gg. (U mad? *Trollface*)
More tweaks i got from a friend at school. -3 Naturalize +3 Krosan Grip (since the spilsecond is soo important and the extra mana isn't that much of a problem) - Talara's Battalion + Khalni Hydra (talara's a beater, and khalni hydra is an even better beater) Also, should i place Primordial Hydra intead pf Khalni Hydra?
Thank you sooo much for giving your idea of my deck. I've placen below the tweaks i made.
Wow, I guess you guys are right... what was i thinking playing with 1 lys alana hutmaster and 1 chameleon colossus in there? They Weren't doing anything helpfull (even if they are great cards...) This deck needs tweaks... lemme see Edits: - Lys Lys Alana Huntmaster - Chameleon Colossus + Immaculate Magistrate + Joraga Warcaller (they combo well together) - 4 Elvish Archdruid + 4 Priest of titania... (that extra +1/+1 is unecessary and the less mana is extreemly needed) - Nissa's Chosen - 2 Nissa Revane (TheChurchlsHere idea) + 3 Wirewood Symbiote Lemme know if it needs something else =P
I guess you're right... but path to exile goes so well with this deck... not only does it destroy an opponent's creature it also gives him more lands that I can sack with Gilt-Leaf Archdruid. But thanks a lot for commenting, Mercy Killing is an awsome card, imagine have 5 elfs with coat of arms turning them into 6/6, then mercy killing on one of them getting a total of 10 11/11's xD.
You clearly know more about elfs then I do... could you please check my decks and comment on what shoul I change? thanks... just click on my name on this comment =D Ps. I have to say that most people play elfs for their mana generation qualitys so normally i see elf decks with big creatures or "X" spells, but yours the first one that is only elf based, and since you have such cheap elfs and so much mana, you could play with elvish visionary to get a little more draw power, or even glimpse of nature =P.
U mad? *trollface*
Cobra Trap! That sooo has to be in this deck xD (Indiana Jones, get it?) It seems your only going for "Indiana type" snakes, but you could consider Kashi-Tribe Elite ; Orochi Sustainer ; Sakura-Tribe Springcaller ; Orochi Eggwatcher ; Sakura-Tribe Scout ; Kashi-Tribe Warriors ; Patron of the Orochi ; Sasaya, Orochi Ascendant ; Matsu-Tribe Sniper ; Matsu-Tribe Decoy ; Orochi Ranger ; Seshiro the Anointed ; Shisato, Whispering Hunter ; Sachi, Daughter of Seshiro ; Serpent Skin ; Sosuke's Summons ; Neko-Te ; Sosuke, Son of Seshiro Helpfull cards: Time of Need ; Commune with nature ; Konda's Banner ; Alpha status ; coat of arms Just pick your poison xD get it?
