Low CMC deck

New challenge from yours truly! I want you to build as powerful a deck as you can with absolutely NO cards with a CMC over 3! Note that X does not count towards CMC. Here's my entry, I had this idea this morning and it took me about an hour to build. I play tested it 3 times and won 3 for 3. then I decided to quit playing in casual multiplayer because the deck is just not fair. One guy rage quit on turn 2.

It's called, DEATH BY ORNITROPTER!

Amusing note: Firefox doesn't recognize the word "Ornithropter" and wants me to change it to "nitroglycerin". I'm not sure how it thinks the two words are similar other than in length.

Highest CMC is 1. Can kill on turn 3.

I think this is the new toury deck guys. I've played it a bunch and have yet to lose with it. Nothing over 3 manna with 50% percent being one manna. This deck only uses "Standard" cards.

Idk what to call this monstrosity but I like this challenge because it REALLY fits both my archetype: Green, and my favorite creature type: Elves xD

I decided since its still keeping with the rules of the challenge to sideboard Elvish Spirit Guide so incase you want to produce a turn 1 wincon there it is just toss 4 cards that are mainboarded ( My choice would be Hurricane) and put in the 4 spirit guides and BAM turn 1 win.

Enjoy.

Been racking my brain for what deck I have that'd fit the "3 mana or less" criteria. The best I could come up with was either one of my elf decks or my deck Strong hold on Discipline. The problem is, both my elf decks (all variants) and Strondhold have at least 4 cards that cost 4 :| in Stronghold's case, it's Stronghold Discipline and in elves it's normally Elvish Promenade.
