7H30F7 thank you for the ideas I’m going to actually switch the lands out for sure! And probably lose Harmonize and possibly Elvish Visionary for the Nettle Sentinel and Heritage Druid combo! Then I just need to figure out where to place Glimpse of Nature as a 65 Card deck already I don’t want to over fill it. I might cut out a few forests. But I definitely appreciate the feedback. This is my first deck I’ve personally built and would like to try and play at some local tournaments with it!

I would consider the classic Heritage Druid + Nettle Sentinel Combo, but I'm not sure how broken that would be w/o Glimpse of Nature . It's pretty fast and is great because Heritage Druid's ability ignores summoning sickness.

Otherwise, this seems pretty solid. I would maybe suggest lowering the Oran-Rief, the Vastwood count since it comes in tapped and you probably want it to be a bit faster than that. Also, you may want to think about switching your Woodland Cemetery for Overgrown Tomb , and adding a couple of Pendelhaven (which I'm pretty sure is legal in modern).

It may also help to add in an Ezuri, Renegade Leader or two, just so that there is another win condition in the deck.

Otherwise, it looks pretty fun and I might try it out sometime.

Depending on your budget, there are a few expensive cards that would make the deck a lot better; namely Cavern , Palace , the other 3 Companies (that is arguably the best card in the deck), that's all I can think of off the top of my head in terms of expensive cards.

You'll also want to complete some playsets to make the deck more consistent, creatures like Heritage Druid , Dwynen's Elite and Elvish Clancaller are (in my considerable experience with Elves) definite 4-ofs. Heritage Druid enables your most busted starts, Dwynen's Elite helps a lot in the grindy matchups, almost always being a 2-for-1, and Elvish Clancaller helps our little green men to stand up to the big scary creatures in modern.

Scavenging Ooze is an honorary elf, helping a lot against graveyard based decks, as well as the grindier ones that kill our guys.

Your sideboard choices don't seem optimal, there are a few cards that are just bad in modern (looking at you, Nylea's Presence and Overrun ) and some others that are just not ideal for elves ( Grafdigger's Cage non-bo with Company , for example).

Things like Beast Whisperer haven't impressed me, as it's only really useful when you're ahead and have cards in hand, once you've had your hand ripped apart or board wiped, you're likely to just be casting a 4 mana 2/3, which is embarrassingly bad by modern's standards. There are a few others that seem odd to me as well.

Take a look at this to see my preferred build and card choices

Llanowar Elves and Elvish Mystic are great. After Heritage Druid , they are the best one drops. That's because they can reliably set you up for a turn 2 Elvish Archdruid who makes insane mana. Yes, heritage druid makes mana, but he does so at the cost of tapped creatures. Ezuri works best with an elvish archdruid in play. But since there are only 4 Ezuris in a deck, you need more ways to get him out. I suggest either a playset of Collected Company or Winding Way taking the place of Elvish Promenade . The last card I suggest is Elvish Clancaller because it's a great alternate wincon. Getting 2 of elvish clancaller and/or elvish archdruid lets you kill people without Ezuri.

Hackball is a cEdh deck that uses Momir Vig, Simic Visionary with Sleight of Mind to chain multiple creatures together, gaining advantage through elf synergy via Heritage Druid Nettle Sentinel Phantasmal Image .

This is the main decklist for tappedout: hackball for more indepth information

Dang, I read you don't want non-foil cards and all but the Heritage Druid are foil. Nothing else I really need in that price range. Sorry
