Deck Description

I wasn't able to get 4x Gitaxian Probe, nor 2x Scanvenging Ooze, so I had to replace those with 2x Soul of the Harvest and 3x Vines of Vastwood.

How to Play

The idea of how to play this deck is really simple.

You have 16 lands. which will leave you with a 1 - 3 land during play.
You have 20 mana producing elves, (couting with nettle sentinel) that will manage you all the mana you will need.
You have 11 spells (of which 8 of them are elves) that will speed up your card buying.

And you have 3 ways of finishing the game.

- Either you buy Biorythm early in the game and get 8 mana quick;
- You get 15 mana and play Emrakul;
- Or you combo with Elvish Archdruid + Umbral Mantle.

All of these can go out on turn 3 - 4

A simple explanation about the combo:

Equipping Elvish Archdruid with Umbral Mantle will give you a simple "Tap for mana -> Untap for 3" combo, of which if you have at least 2 other elves in game (which is almoust every time) you'll have a infinite +2/+2 on your Archdruid; Or, if you have 3 or more elves other then elvish archdruid, you'll get infinite mana.

Now this combo would play wonderfull with Genesis Wave. Though I haven't gotten my hand on any, so I had to take adiferent aproach.
