Deck discussion for Helix Revamp

Hmm... channel with Life-gain seems kinda interesting. Though I think you don't really need 4 of them, but I guess they are still good for early game mana acceleration. Btw.. your running Nissa without Nissa's Chosen. So umm... yea... why are you running her again? Her first ability helps her second ability a lot! Not running Nissa's Chosen in favor of life-gain is bad. What if your opponent has a Wolly Throctar by turn 2? Say hello to game over! At least with Nissa, you can chomp block it all day long.

The weakness of your deck, way too much mana and way too slow. Lets fix it first of all by reducing the number of cards in your deck and making you rely less on tutors.

+1 Wellwisher (Hot and sexy, and easy to play. Get 4 of them)
+4 Wirewood Herald (These fetch the hot and sexy things)
+4 Imperious Perfect (These are better than Lys Alana Huntmasters, plus tutorable with Heralds, and they boost all your elves to pretty much kill your opponent, and makes elves better for you better than Huntmasters for your deck)

-4 Wirewood Channeler (You already have way too much mana... no need to pay 4 mana for a 2/2 when you can pay 2 or 3 mana for something better)
-1 Rofellos, Llanowar Emissary (Slightly better than Priest of Titania, but not by much. 2 copies of a Legend that is basically a Priest of Titania isn't good)
-1 Rhys the Redeemed (Same as the Rofellos, not really that much of a key legend, downgrade to 2)
-4 Lys Alana Huntmaster (If I play an Elf Spell from my hand, I get an elf..Except I don't draw cards. Yea, horrible)
-3 Citanul Hierophants (4 mana for a Llanowar Elves? Oh yea, time to dump it again. Since most of your cards can tap for more than 1 green mana.)

-3 Boon Reflection (You already gain so much life using Wellwishers and Nissa, not needed.)
-4 Mana Reflection (There is a card that actually can make you more mana, It's called "Elvish Guidence". And it costs 3 mana cheaper)

-8 Forest
+4 Llanowar Elves (20 lands is more than enough if your running 60 cards. Which I'm trying to trim down for you)

-4 Elfhame Palace
+4 Wirewood Lodge (These make your Elves with tap abilities look sexy twice)

+4 Nissa's Chosen (It works with Nissa)

-2 Enlightened Tutor (now you don't have to worry about tutoring that much with less cards in your deck)
-4 Channel (Your elves are more than enough to make enough mana for you. Archdruid and Priestess with Elvish Guidence will give you like upwards of 50 mana per turn at turn 12 or 13)
-3 Elvish Promenade

Final Decklist (Trimmed to 60 cards for you)--------------

1 Rofellos, Llanowar Emissary

Because I'm not really that excited with decks I make because its hard for people to comment on them most of the time.

Usually when I make a deck, people give me comments that just aren't helpful or useful most of the time. When I reply to them, I never get a reply back after 1 or 2 days. So if I make a deck = no reply = kinda sad.

So, what about my replies that you find horrible?

there's nothing horrible about your reply dude i didn't mean it like that it just kinda bothers me when people post a reply with so many drastic changes to another persons deck. you know what i mean? plus that was just a gigantic comment and i'm too lazy to read it all.

and yea they need to change this whole comment system because no one can ever tell when some one responds to a post. like you're probably not going to read either of these because you'll have no idea i posted them unless you search for this deck. it's kind of a problem.

Oh.... I guess my comment is a bit too long lol..

But yea, I gotta agree with you, people that build decks have no way of noticing when someone posted on their deck. Maybe make the system a bit more like a forum system? Each new post will be able to bump the post up to the first place slot
(But also make a restriction like only will bump once per 24 hours so people don't spam it)
