Deck Description

Lash FNM (17 Aug 2012) we had a Legacy tournament. I really wanted to use my Elf Warrior deck ( http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=374497 ), but couldn't find where I put some of the cards for it :( So I took my Elf Token 5min before the start of the tournament, took some of the cards deck I had found for the Warrior deck and modified it. This deck is the result of that modification and I came 2nd with it :)

Essence Warden provides more life, so blocking (and losing) creatures is less necessary.
Bramblewood Paragon provides trample to the tokens (because they're warriors) and extra counter(s) on Joraga Warcaller.

Main "combos" I use in the deck:

Once I got +- 6 elf tokens out, Heritage Druid helps pay for Rhys the Redeemed's duplication ability.

Once there's an Elvish Archdruid or 2 out and an Ezuri, Renegade Leader in hand, play Ezuri, tap all Archdruids for mana, pump it into Ezuri's 2nd ability and attack.

:P

I'm actually surprised I came 2nd in Legacy, though 15 3/3's with trample on turn 3 that will attack on turn 4 is quite scary.

I built a modern elf deck using Umbra Mantle for an infinite mana loop

You can send across several infinitely large tramplers round 3

Oddly, I've been trying to work Harbinger out of the deck altogether. I'll post another version of this deck once I find a version that works :|

Yeah, I know... there's somthing... odd... about E.H.
If you haven't done already, I strongly recommend that you post this, or your Elf Token deck in the new Frontpage buzz - "Post your Elf deck here" - This one *deserves* more attention :-P

Normally whatever I feel is needed at the time, but normally more token production...

Okay :-) - I just... I feel I got to thank you, Ded. Your elf deck "Elvish Tokens" has helped me shape my own version, and my god its evil! Budget friendly too!
My casual Elf deck "Doubling Elves" has been ripped to pieces and I had all the other cards for the new one, except Drove, Harbingers and Parallel Evolution - As a replacement Priest of Titania, Nettle Sentinel and two Lys Alana Huntmaster.
Thank you so much. You really helped me out :-D

No need for thanks, I'm just glad to help :)
I use Drove, but potencial replacements are Headless One or Jagged-Scar Archers (thinking of adding Archers to my side :? )
Parallel Evolution isn't as good as I originally thought, so I advise against it. Also It's not Modern legal.
Lys Alana Huntmaster is a good card, I've just had bad experiences with it and that's why I don't use it.
When Return to Ravnica comes out, I'd like to try a card in this deck - Growing Ranks.

Check out my old Vamp Tribal - I'd like to see a match vs. this, could be fun, but knowing your know-how, you'd probably send me packing... ^_<

BTW I've held a close eye at the new expansions + core, and it seems like RTR is full of 'Bankslayer's'
Grats on the 2nd place, man!
