This makes me happy inside... How does your deck hold up to control decks? Like Supreme Verdict and Detention Sphere

Dont do the adaptive, it slows you down. Stick with elves. I been testing my deck vs yours. You are weak against Riders of Gavony

Hey um I think either Llanowar Elves or Elvish Mystic should be Arbor Elf , and I say that because if someone bolts your Elvish Mystic, you would usually float a mana in response, but then you only have access to that mana until the end of that phase. With arbor elf you untap your forest and can use it at any time. It's a small edge, but one that could make a difference in a game. Have fun!It would be the same thing more or less but its a slight better edge.

I actually really like the Storage Matrix idea. Gonna [play around with it after mine and CurdBrosBrewingCo duel of our decks. (I cannot currently change anything in my main board or sideboard until we are finished)

March 1, 2014 8:27 p.m.

I've just added things to the "Maybeboard" that will eventually go in the sideboard :)

How do you guys duel decks?

We will use an outside program like cockatrice. Load our decks to the program and play a set of matches

landstalker10 I dont really seeing Riders of Gavony being that much of a problem. You either have enough swarm to get by his blockers or you have trample which doesn't care about protection. With trample all you have to do is assign whatever lethal damage to creature before trample can damage player. Trample doesn't care if damage gets prevented just that lethal damage was assigned.

Sorry I see I missed a couple comments I see. And I will echo soulwatch5. Im not worried about your one creature. More than likely You're dead or close to dead before you can even remember to play him.... Also I could replace Elvish Mystic with Arbor Elf but I dont run any Utopia Sprawl or anything like it and I can typically always find or have other ways to produce mana.

I would suggest Arbor Elf over Elvish Mystic because if Arbor Elf gets destroyed then you can untap a land and use the mana the land can produce whenever you want. If Elvish Mystic gets destroyed then you can tap him for a mana that you HAVE to use before end of PHASE.

What about Commune with the Gods ? It would allow you to access your library and get the exact creature you need faster.

UpperDeckerTaco for 1 more mana I would rather sub in Lead the Stampede . Does the same thing but I get to keep all of my creatures that I revealed instead of just one

Have you considered Mutavault ? Can combo well with Elvish Archdruid and Joraga Warcaller .

March 4, 2014 1:39 a.m.

landstalker10 says... #18

I think Mutavault would kill this deck. Its running low mana and the last thing you need is a land coming into play that isnt a forrest. There is very little you can change to this deck without breaking it.

March 4, 2014 5:19 a.m.

landstalker10 says... #19

These are good suggestions, but they break the speed and current senergy of the deck. Maybe in a different elf deck this would be good

Possible update:

-4x Elvish Harbinger -4x Elvish Promenade -4x Immaculate Magistrate

+3x Genesis Wave +3x Harmonize +2x Talara's Battalion +2x Imperious Perfect +2x Beast Within March 3, 2014 7:56 p.m.

The only card in this deck I "MIGHT" exchange would be Elvish Promenade . The rest of the trades would be the side bar. Decks like this are very prone to board wipe control decks and there is little you can do to change this.

March 4, 2014 5:24 a.m.

Honestly I don't see the point in having Door of Destinies in your sideboard, I would think that you would benefit much more by having Beast Within In your sideboard

Just think about, your side board has things to deal with artifacts and enchainments, Control decks and counters, Spells like Lightning Bolt You have everything but permanents!(I don't know if I would main-board it though.)

I totally agree with CocoCrispy1337 on Door of Destinies . I been wondering what purpose it served in the sidebar.

I would have 3 Garruk, Primal Hunter instead of Door of Destinies for card draw and token generation when playing against control decks.

Vito1014 says... #23

Door of Destinies basically acts like a lord for all my creatures. Essentially protecting me from things like Pyroclasm and Anger of the Gods . But I agree. Im not certain that my sideboard will stay in tact. But I can't touch it untill after this weekends TapDown Duel. Check out Dreno33 page for more info

March 4, 2014 9:51 p.m.

I agree with some of the earlier statements, I think you need 18 or 19 lands, and/or some more draw or scry.

March 5, 2014 2:19 p.m.

Vito1014 says... #25

As i said before, I'm going to make changes but cannot do so until after this weekends TapDown Duel
