Hydras and elves. Nuff' Said.

With elves like Priest of Titania and Elvish Archdruid as well as hydras like Kalonian Hydra my ramp can get REALLY high, REALLY fast. This deck has traditionally been devastating in my playgroup, as getting super-large creatures on turn 4-5 and beyond is largely unexpected, and I can swiftly finish off those that become a difficulty for my hydras with Progenitus if needed.

This was mostly built from my own personal collection, however there are a few cards I am considering purchasing for this deck (as listed in maybeboard).

Despite all that, I know that the deck needs some work here and there, so comments/suggestions are welcome and appreciated!
