just a speculation I would suggest taking out red and either going all green or add black for removal. I love bloodbraid though.

i would go jund if you had the lands for it. there are some pretty good synergies in those three colors of elves. what'd be more fun than cascading a bloodbraid into a glissa, the traitor on turn three?

true true ill think about it. i would just rather go all green though cuz itd be easiest. the thing is, at fnm when this will become playable at the place i go, there is a lot of board removal so im kind of sketched out about even playing elves. could you check out my other modern deck to see if thats even worth playing

I agree with them about red, either go Red Black Green (Jund) or go mono green in this case. Mono green would require the least change and make your deck more consistent. Good Luck +1 here.

If you have time, check out my newest deck called Faerie Chemistrickery

Hmm, now that Bloodbraid Elf is banned I still want to toss around the idea of a Naya Elf deck. I like where this is going, though I m curious if there is a way to play something like Primeval Titan or Craterhoof Behemoth in the deck as a more immediate win condition and using something like Mayael the Anima to cheat out the creature early... There is also a case to be made for cheating out an Ulamog or an Emrakul, but I'd settle for Prime Time. The only problem with Mayael is that she only hits big creatures, so the deck would suffer from playing fewer elves for more threats. But I still want to see it. Would you have any suggestions?

Joraga war caller, dwyen's elite, and collected company could all be fun to add. Also bloodbraid elf is cool but it is banned I think.
