Elf decks are incredibly fast, and they're cheap too. Pity that most elves are so small and wimpy. Time for the elf warriors to hit the gym and bulk up with lots and lots (and lots) of +1/+1 counters.

This deck is focused primarily around Elf Warriors and +1/+1 counters. Bramblewood Paragon gives out Trample to anything with a +1/+1 counter on it. Door of Destinies and Joraga Warcaller both give everyone a nice little boost, and if you're really lucky you might find Panharmonicon or Lurking Predators giving you even more counters and creatures. Lots of card synergy flying around, and some particularly fun combos in here such as Taunting Elf + Vigor and Contagion Engine + Hardened Scales to really churn out counters. Mana comes thick and fast from Priest of Titania. If you're ever in danger of a board wipe, there's Inspiring Call to give all creatures with +1/+1 counters indestructible. There's also a couple of fun global enchants in there to keep your opponent on their toes and an honourable mention goes out to Kalonian Hydra for straight up doubling the number of counters on each creature whenever it attacks. There's no need for any flying whatsoever in here, it's all just rapid green stomp.

This is my absolute first deck I've shared up here, so please let me know what you think.

My local meta has had a pretty big influence in shaping this deck. Any oddities you find in there are almost definitely a response to that meta. I hate the feeling when a good deck just doesn't bring up the right cards, or worse, the right mana. As a result you'll notice this mono deck is deliberately designed to be very consistent.

I've tested it out a number times. All I can say is it works great but it makes you one hell of a target in multiplayer games.
