Wellwisher
Creature — Elf

Well if you are insistent on staying mono green I would say you need at least 4 more land. Even though you have mana dorks you want to make sure you have at least a couple of lands in your hand. One land I would recommend is Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx, War Room, Path of Ancestry, and Scavenger Grounds. As for what to drop for those lands (or more forest) I would drop Gilt-Leaf Archdruid (you only have 12 Druids and 1 druid maker of 100 cards highly unlikely you will have enough druids in play), Wolverine Riders (too slow for what he does), Birchlore Rangers (you already have much much stronger mana dorks), and probably Dwynen's Elite (just not very good at what it is doing).
other creatures to consider putting in the deck over a couple of others. Galadhrim Brigade you mentioned lords, Lys Alana Huntmaster (better token producer than the Dwynen's Elite), Wellwisher (a staple in every elf deck usually), and Ivy Lane Denizen (comboes exceedingly well with your commander, Joraga Warcaller, Haldir, and Lorien Lieutenant).
Also you are missing a bit of interaction.
If you want to go wide I recommend considering either Lathril, Blade of the Elves (would give you some fun and evil mana outlets, and would let you use your Tyvar to greater affect) or Rhys the Redeemed (for truly going wide with an obscene amount of tokens) and again I got more if you want me to keep going with the suggestions let me know.

Hi, you've got a decent start here. If you wanted to get down to 60 cards, here's what I'd consider dropping:
4 Forest, Wild Growth and Verdant Haven. 20 lands should be plenty, especially with all of your Elf ramp cards.
Bountiful Harvest and Wurm's Tooth. Between Wellwisher and Essence Warden there's plenty of life gain.
2 Fog. The Druid's Deliverance fits your theme better.
Giant Growth, Titanic Growth and Trollhide. You could swap all of these out for an Overrun, Overwhelming Stampede or Ezuri, Renegade Leader if you have them.
2 Elvish Eulogist, Elvish Scout, Golgari Decoy and Skyshroud Archer. These creatures don't fully fit into what you're trying to do.
2 Moonglove Extract, Blessings of Nature, Cobbled Wings and Bower Passage. These just seem like filler.
Hopefully that helps. Good luck.

I found Once Upon a Time really useful in my Elves deck, really smoothe
Is Ezuri, Renegade Leader x1 too off theme? I feel like the Overrun would be sick in here. It's not always the most efficient option, but Joraga Warcaller has very nice versatility, if you have 5 or 7 mana it's a huge buff. If you use Warcaller, I really liked having 1 or 2 Immaculate Magistrate, which also synergizes with your card draw effects.
Have you thought about switching out some copies of Nissa for Wellwisher? Wellwisher lacks Haste, but it comes out sooner and counts as an elf (it's almost always less life, but might give more offense).
Really neat take on Elves, Green isn't known for this kind of thing, but maybe it should be!

Nissa Revane and Nissa's Chosen is a pretty sweet combo! Some of the other people I'm playing with haven't played Magic for even longer than me, so I'm sure they'll be caught off guard the first time by the Nissa Revane.
Also I started mulling over which card to take out to fit in another land, since I may need it with stuff like Mind's Eye and Wirewood Lodge, and I was thinking about taking out either a single copy of Seeker of Skybreak or a Wellwisher. However since you reminded me of Nissa Revane, I remembered that one of her +1 abilities is the same as Wellwisher. Since I don't really have anything that interacts with healing, I thought how much healing do I really need? So I decided to just cut out a Wellwisher to put in another Forest.
Thanks for the help!

Even if you don't go all in on Elves, I would think you'll have enough elves to make Elvish Archdruid and Priest of Titania solid. There is also Fyndhorn Elves if you want another 1 drop elf dork, they are good creatures. Maybe Wirewood Channeler? There are plenty of elves that like to have access to either lots of mana or lots of other elves, stuff like Joraga Warcaller and Ezuri, Renegade Leader can soak up mana, Immaculate Magistrate can pump up a Warcaller or something else you want big, Wellwisher might like Alchemist or Blossoming Bogbeast.
I suspect if you're going to run Alchemist you might as well look at Primal Command as well, with Alchemist out it's 5 mana to get 7 mana (or more if you gained other life) and you tutor up any creature you want, which sounds good. It's also able to get rid of problematic permanents, or deal with a graveyard, and it's not like tutoring up a creature is ever a bad effect. I think it's underplayed in decks that care about it's effects (it's an incredibly versatile utility card) and run enough ramp that they can cast it on time or earlier.
Overrun is solid, but Overwhelming Stampede can be much better if you want an upgrade. There is also the Bogbeast and Ezrui I mentioned above, I think each is better in it's own ways, but I will say Overrun can still surprise people. There is also Triumph of the Hordes, Infect and trample are really scary if you've got a few creatures out. There is also Craterhoof Behemoth, but you do want a really wide board before it comes out, so I find Overwhelming Stampede or Pathbreaker Ibex are technically superior cards, my Green decks tend to go tall.
Hopefully these suggestions aren't too competitive leaning, it's fun to play casual games, to use cards you don't always use.

Very nice! I feel the same about infect, sometimes it's a necessary evil. I'm not sure about proliferate because I've never built around it, but I can think of a couple of pump spells that might be useful in Groundswell and Might of Old Krosa. I know it's not technically the best card, but Overrun seems like it would be fun once your board is developed :)
For lands, Yavimaya Coast and Llanowar Wastes are solid, but are also still budget. I like that they give you access to two colours but you can use them for and not take the damage. Probably the best part is that they come into play untapped, which most other budget duals don't do.
Anyway, good luck! I hope you finally take down that Wellwisher combo!

Okay so I'm new to deckbuilding, especially for EDH so I'm just wondering if anyone has any useful/practical suggestions for this deck. I thought Abomination of Llanowar was a cool card, so I wanted to build around that concept of getting a lot of elves onto the field and my graveyard to really boost its power and toughness.
One thing I'll mention is that, with the exception of cards that are already present in the deck, I don't want to spend more then $3-5 on a single card. So keeping all of this in mind, any suggestions?

Planeswalkers: - Freyalise, Llanowar's Fury - Tyvar Kell

Instants: - Putrefy - Golgari Charm - Murder - Village Rites - Grisly Salvage - Wrap in Vigor - Cast Down - Malakir Rebirth Flip - Ghastly Demise - Infuse with Vitality

Balaam__ on Incredible budget combo elves

If I can presume you’re wanting to lean heavily into the idea of ramping up to huge bombs, then I recommend the following cuts: Wellwisher (good sideboard option for the lifegain, but not maindeck material (doesn’t ramp, I doesn’t augment anything else, is not a finisher), Mul Daya Channelers (much too situationally dependent to be consistent), Joraga Treespeaker (takes too long to become viable, wasted time and resources if removed), Dwynen's Elite (just doesn’t do enough), Nettle Sentinel (I think the idea is to combo into Heritage Druid? But at 2 Druids and 4 Sentinels, that’s unreliable. I’d cut both tbh, unless you’re specifically building the entire deck around exactly that interaction).
From here I’d double down on other cards that do work well, bringing the count up to 4x for all of those. Maybe add some other finishers ( has tons and tons of super powerful bombs to plop down). Hope this makes sense. A deck can be whatever you want it to be, but I’ve found the Jack-of-all-trades-Master-of-none approach to seldom work. Much better to focus on one or two ideas and build solely around them.
