Green highlander which is basically Ezuri monoG elves except I removed all the big EDH cards and streamlined it to give myself better fighting chances at 20 starting life total. Feel free to leave feedback.

It's a mixture of elf synergy and monoG goodness cards to ramp into a Craterhoof Behemoth or double Ezuri ability and overrun the opponent for triple their life total which always feels sooooo satisfying. I'm still working on the deck, some of the cards that I do or don't play are as a response to my friend's decks (Deathrite Shaman to help against revive decks along with Scavenging Ooze and Deathgorge Scavenger). I play lots of planeswalkers because they provide crazy value which is really good once you've emptied your hand in the early turns. Low number of non-creature spells because (the best are very expensive) of cards like Nullhide Ferox, Beast Whisperer, (The Great Henge) and all the 1/1 green elf creating synergies. Cards I'm unsure about: Deathrite Shaman (awkward when opponents don't play fetches), Tireless Tracker (I was told it's a great card, haven't been impressed by it in my games so far), Strangleroot Geist (good early-game play but no scaling), Fierce Empath (haven't played with it yet, brand new), Nissa, Vastwood Seer (I typically get my mana from creatures more than lands in highlander version), Courser of Kruphix (do I care about the land? maybe in some situations it might save me a blank draw), Nissa's Pilgrimage (do I need third Cultivate? maybe).

No Gaea's Cradle because I would rather buy a gaming PC than a single card (all of my cards I've bought for cheap back when people haven't quite realised their power yet).

Note: sideboard is the acquirelist.
