Haha, genius ! Yeah... It almost *demands* one to be thwarted with both attacks, kill spells and any other juice they can muster, hehe.

Do you use Gatherer to play detective ao to speak? I've got some good advice from that site, but MTGVault seems better in many ways (obviously, haha)

Hi PoetMaster-X and thank you for commenting ! Also to you Ded, or should I say... "Mentor..." haha. I've seen your 2-time FNM Elf deck, and first thing I thought of, "Why does this only have 2, and not 14 FNM Wins?!" - Its awesome !!
Commented BTW :D
You're right, Zendikar was very tribal keen.
I don't play in tourneys or FNM's - only with my wife and some of my friends occasionally. Thanks to DedWards I haven't lost with this yet. It stands approx 15-ish wins.
What's your opinion on Priest of Titania vs. Elvish Archdruid ?

@ DedWards: Grats on being in the Top 3 ! What would it take to make this Legacy? (Not that I'm gonna change this, just curious;) )

AWEsome Elf deck you've created here ! My two favorite colors mixed into my favorite tribe, the only suggestions I have is to remove Maelstrom Pulse (Yeah, I know... An atomic bomb) however, replace with an instant-creature-or-artifact-kill-with-no-regeneration - Putrefy :D Multicolored in the same as this gemstones theme.
In your main deck, you don't have too many spells. How is your opinion on Genesis Wave?

Genesis Waves are indeed evil, especially in a Landfall Deck, I actually semi-remembered the combo Taunting + Lens. I learned that from you. *Bows* Thank you :D
Again, when looking at this deck, I find meyself to be even *more* jealous of you Gaea's Cradle. Man the exploded in price when Zendikar hit the market :-O
Keep them secret... Keep them safe, haha :-D

Hi and thank you, the both of you :D
@TheChurch: I really like Taunting Elf, seems to be kind of an underdog rising. Could be fun times equipping him with an Infiltration Lens. Think Mirror-fight 0_0 '
I get where you're going, I had heavy doubts around Gilt-Leaf, but it has actually won me 3 games in a row, along side Regrowth and Imperious.
Wirewood Pride would also radiate in a Mirror-fight - holy...
Regarding Wirewood Lodge, I have x4 in another Elf deck, in this one I need green Mana ASAP in order to get rolling. It untaps target Elf and unleashes Hell... But not in here. If it were to produce {G} instead of 1 Colorless, then it would be Broke as Hell, but also in here :D

@DedWards: I'm starting to feel I've stolen your thunder and want to apologize for my plagiarizing :-/
But I'm still in awe how well your guidelines work. I haven't lost with this yet (Casual Play) :D

Hi Gregorion :)
I don't have a playset of Revane as much as I'd want to, she doesn't fit into the deck, heh Foxy little Planeswalker. She's a CMC 4 and would slow down the deck, same problem with Doubling Season, I found out testing it, although DedWards already warned me - again for the rescue, haha.
Nissa's Chosen is a bomb of a card, but most of the time, the aforementioned should go together to really work :)

Hiya - DedWards is right. I know it may appear to be a foolish card to play, but the less Lands you have in your Library, and the more Lands you have on the field means drawing the card you need :)
Thank you both for commenting - and hey...! Front Page ! Wee :D
I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for you Ded... Props for making me see just a bit further into M:tG
Folk and Foxes, take some time, and dive into DedWards' Deck Count - You just might learn something :D

BTW Putrefy is a nice destructive spell, featuring both green and black from "the pie"
Fetch-Land can really help you out - Evovling Wilds, Terramorphic Expanse and the like, to "thin' your deck, making each draw to be more likely the card you need ;-)

I actually have Immaculate Magistrate, but for a different Elf deck, which uses +1 +1 Counters to smash. Immaculate is a house with Joraga Warcaller, but can easily fortify your small creatures
Commented on your deck :)

Hi PasttimePlayer :)
Now personally I think 80 is about 20 too much, but we all have the right to play as we see fit, so no lifted, waving index at you. You did a nice combination of Elves, no doubt about that, however I'd look into Immaculate + Joraga Warcaller - that is a combo *made* for breaking the game, and opponents face ):-))
I think its cool you've added Nath of the Gilt-Leaf - one of my favorites in the game - never used him though...

Hi 2hp10 !
Thank you for your comment, I agree with your train of thought but this is a swarm deck and not a counter deck - I've actually used Treespeaker and Warcaller in another Elf deck I made :-)
http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=232555
Regrowth are in here to double my chances with almost every card in the deck. I've used, and re-used, one Verdant Catacombs 3 times to thin my deck, and flooded the field with swarms of Elves with Promenade and Ambush
Hope I don't sound like a douche :-/ but I really appreciate your advice :-D

I think you can improve your deck by replacing...okay you got me, I wouldn't change anything with this setup you have. I am a little puzzled why there's no "Hero of Bladehold?" She has anorexia, but is quite potent ;-)

Please check out my Elf deck:

You could make your Sliver uncounterable with Cavern of Souls - although its quite pricey :-/
But awesome Tribal-Stomp :D

Essence Warden could work nicely in this deck :) Heritage Druid also

I'd suggest Green Sun's Zenith - get whichever Elf you want :)

Not bad Meibach, not bad at all :-) And you've managed to keep it budget friendly.
Alas, I'm not that familiar with Standard Format, but in stories and tales, Goblin usually work for a hidden Dragon of some sorts - maybe 'Moonveil Dragon' as a 1-of

Check my Elf deck - has some crazy mana ramping :)

Very cool build 2hp10 - Also, some old cards could help your slight mana problem. Sol Ring / Mana Vault and/or Grim Monolith. If you'd like to go un-hurt, I'd suggest Voltaic Key.

What's your opinion of Elves ? They sure can generate mana !

http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=300537 is an example =)
