It's some elves, you know how it goes, kill the table first because you're playing elves and they hate you for it...

Every card in this deck has been selected with the utmost thought, and lots and lots of play testing has led me to this. Sure there are many elf EDH decks out there (almost 3000 according to EDHREC) but I feel mine is stronger than most, and updated unlike many of them. Mine probably isn't that unique, I'm sure there is one out there just like mine, but all I've seen has something majorly wrong with it I don't like about it. I tried to keep it as pure elf as I can while making it as fast as I can.

My personal favorite way to play is to rush Skyshroud Poacher out, get as many large mana dorks out, while casting every elf I can, playing Elvish Harbinger grabbing Elvish Promenade casting Kindred Summons flooding the board with more elves, either then Genesis Wave into Fierce Empath and/or Craterhoof Behemoth with Concordant Crossroads or Akroma's Memorial out even maybe pumping with Ezuri, Renegade Leader

If you don't know how to do that here is a few combos:

Skyshroud Poacher is a great way to get any of you're elves out.

Elvish Harbinger grabbing Elvish Promenade makes lots of little elves, granted you have some alreadyReclamation Sage for artifact and enchantment removalViridian Corrupter for infection Artifact removal (try not to blow up you're stuff)

Add Fauna Shaman to the mix, and unnecessary creatures to get the few non elves you might need:Karametra's AcolyteCraterhoof BehemothWirewood SymbioteMagus of the Candelabra

You probably wont want to fetch the Symbiote, he really doesn't do all that much besides abuse some ETB effects while untapping a creature

Magus of the Candelabra + Seeker of Skybreak + Wirewood Lodge + Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx/Elvish Guidance/Itlimoc, Cradle of the Sun/Gaea's Cradle

Or you can swap Magus of the Candelabra and Seeker of Skybreak for Argothian Elder

Karametra's Acolyte is good for mana when you're in a pinch I've found, or great in the late game where you need more mana for you're Helix Pinnacle and don't have infinite mana

There is also several ways to get around different strategies you'll come across.

Taunting Elf Does not seem like a threat to anyone, ever. but when the Rhys player has his infinte tokens having to block a 0/1... they still will ignore it.

Elvish Bard flows in and out of the deck

I added a removal package pretty recently after a long stalemate game. Green has the least amount of viable removal. 90% of it is artifact and enchantment removal. It has some creature removal, fighting, or worse only targeting flying. My only thought around this was to go for a few very broad targeting thing, or straight up player removal.

Scour from Existence You don't like something? Well it doesn't exist anymore, at 7 cmc its expensive, but really worth it

Beast Within One of the few really good, and really popular removal spell. No need to explain this.

Desert Twister Same with beast within, but with no ups for them. We don't struggle with mana, so the twice as much mana shouldn't bother us.

Song of the Dryads Imagine you're playing a budget Ruhan of the Fomori deck, or something along those lines, now you're probably playing 99 card singleton and a forest. Easily my favorite cards. Krenko, Mob Boss decks really hate this.

Unnatural Aggression The only fight card I have. Why did I pick this? Mainly because of the exile effect. Reanimation makes killing things harder.

Helix Pinnacle Infinite mana + this = you win. Great for Stalemates

Altar of Dementia Ezuri to pump to kill everyone, but whats this Spore Frog + Meren of Clan Nel Toth or even... Fog well about 30 100/100 elves should mill everyone out.
