The "Classic" Elf ramp build I was taught to play magic with. Start out small, then flood the field with a ridiculous number of elves. Drown in green mana forever. Do whatever you want! The way I've set this one up is to build up mana producing elves for the first 3 - 4 turns (Typically turn 1 Llanowar Elves or Arbor Elf into the turn 2 Elvish Archdruid). Then play as many low-cost elves to build up the mana count. Hopefully by turn 5 - 6 I can cast Genesis Wave to put the majority of my deck on the field. At that point the Akroma's Memorial hits the field and suddenly all the elves are haste, flying, trample, first strike, yadda yadda. The other great thing about Akroma's Memorial is that all of the buffs it grants pair nicely with the passive +1/+1's from the Elvish Archdruids and Imperious Perfects, even without all of the boost-able goodness that Ezuri, Renegade Leader.
