Is a working progress. Any comments/advice wanted.
Why are all these cards in here?
CREATURES:
Elvish Mystic: Elf Mana Dork. Very important for the deck since it has 16 lands. One of the most useful cards in the deck. Definite 4 of.
Llanowar Elves: Same as Elvish Mystic.
Heritage Druid: Speeds up deck, by allowing creatures to tap for mana as soon as they enter the battlefield. Very nice card. Combos well with Cloudstone Curio and Nettle Sentinel for infinite mana, Cloudstone Curio, Elvish Visionary, and Nettle Sentinel for as many cards as I want, after getting infinite mana playing Joraga Warcaller for infinite counters, Heritage Druid and Cloudstone Curio for infinite life. Definite 4 of. Is an elf.
Nettle Sentinel: 1 mana for a 2/2 elf. Usually easy to untap. Is part of the Cloudstone Curio and Heritage druid combo. Pretty certain 4 of.
Joraga Warcaller: Its a one for a 1/1 elf which can be a win con with more mana. Using Scryb ranger and Elvish Archduid can make all my elves get +6+6 quite easily. With infinite mana can be very powerful card. Almost definite 4 of.
Scryb Ranger: Isn't an elf. Makes up for that by allowing me to tap Elvish Archdruid twice a turn. Pro-blue can be useful sometimes, but is quite situational. Allows for infinte mana combo with cloudstone curio turn 3, which can be very nice.
Probably 2-4 of. One of the cards to sideboard out.
Elvish Visionary: 2 mana for a 1/1 elf. Draws me a card. Allows me to draw as much as I want with infinite mana combo. Is useful utility card. Probably 4 of for first game, but one the first cards to sideboard out.
Craterhoof Behemoth: Easy win if played. Almost always allows for enough damage and with summoner's pact/ fauna shaman and elvish archdruid, this deck can get it out around turn 4. Probably a one of, or possible two of. I have one sideboard for heavy thoughtseize decks.
Elvish Champion: Elf lord. Poweful card when racing aggro decks. Forestwalk is situational, but can be useful. Archdruid is almost always better. Less than 4 of.
Fauna Shaman: 2 mana for 2/2 elf which can tutor? Sure. Very nice card. Sometimes I'll even summoner's pact for this so I can start tutoring cards like crazy. Also, there is a very high chance of drawing a creature each turn, which will just make this card better. Good card. 1-4 of.
Essence Warden: 1 mana for 1/1 lifegain elf. Reasonable in the deck, but with Cloudstone Curio and Heritage Druid, I can gain infinite life. 0-1 of mainboard, but definitely a sideboard card.
Ezuri, Renegade Leader: Another elf lord. Requires mana though... Good sideboard card. I run one mainboard just in case, but is a better sideboard card. 0-2 of.
Elvish Archdruid: One of the best cards in the deck. Allows for quick combos, and a lot of easy mana. The +1+1 for other elves is a very useful bonus. Overall a great card. Definite 4 of.
NON-CREATURE SPELLS:
Cloudstone Curio: Nice card in this deck for a lot of combos with Heritage Druid. Situational though, so not a 4 of. Kind of slow. 1-3
Summoner's Pact: The tutor of the deck. Finds Craterhoof Behemoth for the kill, and can find archdruid for mana, can complete the Cloudstone Curio combo. Definite 4 of.
LANDS:
Forests: Obviously...
Cavern of Souls: Stops annoying blue decks countering everything. Doesn't work with Scryb Ranger though, so maybe not a 4 of.
Comments gratefully appreciated! Fine tuning this very fun deck. :)
(BTW I tried the G/U version of the deck with Beck//Call and found it too slow)
Not sure about sideboard yet.
