Elemental Deck Help

What's the best elemental deck that was ever made? (If there was one) I made one which seemed fine until I went up against first strike/indestructable deck and burn deck. All of my "Smokebraider" and "Incandascent soulstoke" kept being burned or removed and "Nova Chaser" is just squishy. I'm trying to make a good deck in general that can either burn super duper fast or somehow slowly kill them while somehow protecting my elementals. Thanks for your help.

This deck made Top 4 at a States tournament back in 2008. Maybe it could give you some ideas:

Grahm Andrew "Tender Notions" Elementals

Main Deck: 4 Flamekin Harbinger , 3 Smokebraider , 4 Bloom Tender , 3 Horde of Notions , 3 Reveillark , 4 Chameleon Colossus , 4 Fulminator Mage , 4 Mulldrifter , 2 Cloudthresher , 2 Makeshift Mannequin , 1 Crib Swap , 1 Nameless Inversion , 1 Shriekmaw .

4 Reflecting Pool , 4 Primal Beyond , 3 Vivid Creek , 4 Vivid Grove , 1 Vivid Crag , 1 Wooded Bastion , 1 Fire-Lit Thicket , 1 Rugged Prairie , 1 Twilight Mire , 1 Flooded Grove , 1 Secluded Glen , 2 Gilt-Leaf Palace .

Sideboard: 3 Primal Command , 1 Loxodon Warhammer , 3 Guttural Response , 3 Glen Elendra Archmage , 2 Infest , 2 Firespout , 1 Wispmare .

Otherwise, SocialistElite's Its Elementary My Dear Watson! has a lot of feedback on it and could probably give you ideas as well.

I wanted it to be like "It's Elementary My Dear Watson!" but trying to find new ideas. Since if your opponent have first strike its basically over.

Maybe adding some extra burn (Lightning Bolt s, Incinerate s, and Searing Blaze s) could help get rid of the first striker?
