To help your ramp, you could go heavy on one-mana dorks, including Birds of Paradise and Elvish Mystic, and then some two-mana land ramp spells, like Nature's Lore and Three Visits.

I like your approach here. I think if it were me, I'd lean more into an Enchantress approach to Voltron. In fact, that may be my next deck!

I think you should cut: Brutalizer Exarch, Conduit of Ruin, Frost Titan, Giant Adephage, Myr Battlesphere, Oblivion Sower, Pelakka Wurm, Phyrexian Ingester, Rashmi, Eternities Crafter, Rattleclaw Mystic, Sagu Mauler, Simic Sky Swallower, Sphinx Ambassador, Stalking Vengeance, Tornado Elemental, Plasm Capture, Pandemonium, Sunken Hope, Tezzeret the Seeker, Chromatic Lantern, Darksteel Ingot, Disaster Radius, Explosive Vegetation, Heat Shimmer, Rude Awakening, and Spelltwine. As for lands, I do think you should replace: Izzet Boilerworks, Spawning Bed, and Temple of the False God.

I think you should add: Temur Sabertooth, Genesis Ultimatum, Etali, Primal Storm, Skyshroud Claim, Goreclaw, Terror of Qal Sisma, Sakura-Tribe Elder, Chaos Warp, Klauth, Unrivaled Ancient, Terror of the Peaks, Kodama of the East Tree, Reclamation Sage, Kogla, the Titan Ape, Consecrated Sphinx, Selvala, Heart of the Wilds, Wood Elves, Ilharg, the Raze-Boar, Diluvian Primordial, Prime Speaker Zegana, Release to the Wind, Return of the Wildspeaker, Nature's Lore, Three Visits, Garruk's Uprising, Guardian Project, Unnatural Growth, and Arcane Signet.

I do think one option that you have is replacing all signets with mana dorks like Birds of Paradise, Llanowar Elves, and Elvish Mystic

If you are able to find more slots, I think you should consider: Hullbreaker Horror, Thryx, the Sudden Storm (dependent on count of spells with 5 cmc or more), Soothsaying, Mulldrifter, Beast Whisperer (dependent on final count of creatures), Rishkar's Expertise, Turntimber Symbiosis  ^Flip, See the Unwritten, Balefire Dragon, Scourge of the Throne, Bane of Progress (I feel like you do not have a ton of high value artifacts or enchantments that would cause this to cripple you), Momir Vig, Simic Visionary, and Genesis Storm.

You could run Llanowar Elves Fyndhorn Elves and Elvish Mystic as reprints that can ramp you? Not sure if it's worth much, but they can help get Jeggy out early.

Fun theme!

Misconception on Elven Empire

So to start if off, try asking yourself what your deck is trying to do and how it interacts with your commander. Are you trying to kill through commander damage? Or to flood your board with elves and pump'em up? Maybe to get into some graveyard shenanigans? How does your commander support your strategy? And lastly, How are you going to win? At least that's how I like to build my decks :)

What comes to my attention right off the bat is your mana base. If you are running on 33 Lands (Which is not a lot) you should at least include the usual mana dorks such as Llanowar Elves, Elvish Mystic, Fyndhorn Elves, Elves of Deep Shadow etc... Also, I find your lack of Sol Ring disturbing.

So far, your creatures seem to be a bit all over the place and personally, I find your creature count to be too high. Duskwielder, Masked Vandal, Nissa's Chosen, Talara's Battalion, Nullmage Shepherd and Thornmantle Striker seem the most random that do not go with any strategy I can see really apart from being an elf. Try to focus on a strategy and filter out the best elves to pull it off.

In case you are actually going for a graveyard/recursion/value theme, you need sac outlets like any Altar, really.

Generally good cards with any strat you might want to check out for this deck:

Skullclamp Amazing carddraw if tokens are available.

Beast Within Green staple for removal as it lets you get rid of almost anything, including lands.

Bounty of Skemfar Ramp + Dig a bit into your deck to get an Elf.

Lightning Greaves Commander staple for haste and protection.

Bojuka Bog Free Graveyard hate!

Gilt-Leaf Palace If not here, where else?

Hope that helped a bit :)

Cards like Blossoming Defense and Snakeskin Veil give your creatures hexproof plus a little toughness buff. Rabid Bite and Blizzard Brawl or Prey Upon give you some removal options.

If he plays T1 Guul Draz Assassin, T2 level up, you might be able to just outnumber that, with T1 Elvish Mystic, T2 Elvish Mystic and Llanowar Elves. This isn't an unreasonable start and gives you a significant board and mana advantage. With a playset each of Llanowelves, Mystics, and Arbor Elfs, you should be able to make a fast, reliable start and get around the Assassin play. Dark Ritual gives a big shot of mana for one turn, but Elves are capable of sustaining that level of mana production. Good luck!

Misconception Thank you a lot for the ideas for my deck. I do have the Skullclamp and have added it to the deck. I also put in the dorks Llanowar Elves and Elvish Mystic. For some synergy with the forests and mana theme I have also put in Arbor Elf. I am looking for more removal like Beast Within which I have ordered on Cardmarket, so any suggestions will be appreciated :D

Skull prophet's self mill is nice but I think you really need 1 mana dorks since you have no turn 1 plays. Ignoble Hierarch would be best but pricey. Birds of Paradise is also very good.

For budget, I guess the elves, Llanowar Elves/Elvish Mystic (obviously running all 4 of one is better bcuz bloodbond) and Elves of Deep Shadow?
