Just wondering what everyone's opinion is on modern elves post origins. Personally I think there are some excellent elves that push the list to three colors. Here is the list I'll be working with

EDIT: the majority of the white has been dropped, but the kataki has been left in the board to chord/company into

So I'm sorry but for some reason the link won't go to the deck... You can find it on my page

Honestly? I don't see any good reason to make this Abzan. B/G is just better.

I mean, all your white cards are on the sideboard, and other than Kor Firewalker, they're all easily replaceable with stuff like Torpor Orb and Creeping Corrosion. None are really worth the hassle of fetching/shocking yourself so much in order to fix your mana.

Also, your mana base needs some serious improvement. 19 lands is too little even for a deck with so many dorks, your permanents don't have nearly enough in their costs to make Nykthos worth playing, and you don't even have enough sources to play Kor Firewalker! Another reason to just drop the white from your list.

I see what you mean, the creatures are there over artifacts because they can be corded for, same reason I don't have the full 2 plains for the firewalker. And it has crossed my mind to drop white all together :) don't worry
