Deck discussion for Elf Clampy

Well, I never liked elf decks, but this seems like one I'd enjoy playing. It looks simple, effective and efficient. My advice, to make this deck really powerful, would be to replace a few of the cards you have with ones that are more oriented towards elves.

I don't really see how Skull Clamp really helps you, you could definitely use cards like Taunting Elves, which(when combined with the Timberwatch elf) can help you turn the tide of battle greatly in your favor. Plus Taunting Elves can help you overcome Worship which is usually an 'I win" card given the opponent has no disenchants.

I think you could also use some more cards that would help you generate more elves instead of the ones you have generating insects or bears(like Caller of the Claw, or Wirewood Hivemaster) as they don't help you with most of the elve's activated abilities such as Wellwisher and Timberwatch Elf. You have Imperious Perfect, but Lys Alana Huntmaster and Presense of Gond are great elf token generators. Plus there are some non-permanents that can generate a lot of elves for you, like Elvish Prominade.

Lastly there's Garruk Wildspeaker, yeah, he's pretty cool, and definately not lacking in power, but I don't really see where he fits in your deck. I think that Rhys the Redeemed would do your deck a lot more justice, not to mention he's a lot cheaper.

I'm not trying to say deck wouldn't work, in fact It looks like it would probably do really well. But I think that if you focus your attention more on elves, then your deck would ultimately kick some real ass.

I would really appreciate your comments on my decks( I only have one up now, but plan to add more soon. :) )

Ok, not to sound mean, but i completely stopped reading your comment when you said "I don't really see how Skull Clamp really helps you". Perhaps you misunderstood what type of deck this is, elf clamp is an incredibly powerfull/broken combo revolving around the card skullclamp, without it the deck is 100% pointless. Because skullclamp lets you play then kill tons of elves in a ginsle turn, caller of the claw and wirewood hivemaster are possibly two of the most neccessary cards to making the deck work after skullclamp and priest of titania.
