Deck Description

This is my favourite way how to play mono Elves. The deck is based on 1) low mana cost Elvish creatures; 2) mana and card accelerators combined in a clever way, so it owns the game in a few rounds.

How to Play

The deck contains many variable creatures, so the game is never the same. It combines some old strategies and combos.

"Llanowar Elves" is essential card. "Heritage druid" + "Nettle Sentinel" is a very effective way how to get mana. And once you get "Priest of titania" or "Elvish Archdruid", you are mana independant.

With great mana source you should appriciate fast card drawing. As the Llanowar's for mana, "Elvish visionary" is main card for speed. "Glimpse of nature" and "Sylvan messenger" are huge card support. And if you wisely use "Bloodline shaman", you can get some extra cards as well (edit: now in SB).

Thanks to "Wirewood lodge" you are even faster and more dangerous.

Finally, there are some special creatures. You can call them game deciders as well. It could be "Joraga warcaller" (many, many times kicked), "Immaculate Magistrate" or "Sylvan messenger" if there is something to use Trample on.

etc.

The game is always fun. Most of games the enemy isn't able to disturb your development so fast, deck wins in (4-) 5 (-6) rounds.
