Thank you! I see what you're saying with the Genesis Wave . At first I thought it said creatures. Since I'm running Legacy I would probably throw in Wellwisher before Nissa Revane . Thanks for the pointers, awesome deck again!

LordShadowZ, give it a couple test plays and let me know what you think. I made a couple of adjustments per your suggestions.

I just realized that the Eldrazi with "Cast" in the ability doesn't do shit with Elvish Piper because it was never cast, it was put onto the battlefield. Crap!

Yeah, Elvish Piper and Genesis Wave cheat in the eldrazi so you don't get the "when you cast" effects. It's not an issue in my deck because the point of mine is to cheat them out quickly.
If you don't want to cheat them out, it would probably be good to find something to replace Elvish Piper . Use more mana dorks or something.
Sorry I can't be more helpful, my knowledge of cards is very limited.

After several test play I realize that with Elvish Archdruid and Joraga Treespeaker it is possible to cast Emrakul, the Aeons Torn by the 4th turn! I like to pump as much mana as I can into Joraga Treespeaker as often as possible so by the 3rd or 4th turn all of my elves produce 2 green mana. With 1 or 2 Elvish Archdruid s in play that is crazy mana ramp!
Genesis Wave is a nasty addition to this deck in that I usually always have significant mana production using Fauna Shaman to get what I need. This deck is gearing up to be nastier than my Goblins! The only thing I see being an issue are creatures like Peacekeeper . Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre takes care of that and Fauna Shaman helps to get him into my hand. Give it a few test plays and if you like it, +1 would be awesome! Thanks again, you are the man!

I playtested this and also was able to win turn 4 without a single eldrazi. Using Umbral Mantle and Elvish Archdruid with 3 other elves. using those two cards together with more than 3 elves gives infinite mana, also infinite Attack / Defense for all of the creatures that you continuously Tap and untup over and over using Umbral Mantle .
Basically I had 5, 3 million / 3 millions on the battlefield on turn 4.

Yes Levon777 you are correct, and with Wellwisher that's infinite life! The Eldrazis are simply another way to win.

Umbral Mantle usually gets paired up with Priest of Titania .

In this case my creatures get infinitely huge. 2nd turn Elvish Archdruid works great! Priest of Titania is a great card but doesn't help as much with synergy.

+1 man i like but i would fit in at least into the sideboard some beast within to combat against and nuisance permanent. I need to test the deck later and come up with some suggestions.

Eldrazi are pretty good at taking care of permanents by turn 4 most of the time. Do you know how to link card names? It would make it much easier so I can read the card without having to look it up. Thanks man! I think this is my funnest deck for sure.

Just put brackets around the name like this. [ [ ] ] but without the spaces. 2 on each side of the card name.

Glad I could be of help. +1 upvote would be appreciated

Just made my own and tweaked it a bit what do u think of my changes. Bring on the Eldrazi

Genesis Wave has proven to be extremely useful in my elf deck, especially since you're running Umbral Mantle . And Nissa Revane has proven useful against some other aggro decks since you tend to not block early game. She's saved me more than a couple times so far. Just some things to consider.
