I wanted a stronger deck, but I also wanted to play elves so here we are with a Black Green version. All sugestions are Welcome and helpful, hope you enjoy the deck!

Land

How consitant you want lands in your opening hand is up to you, most elves players only run 18-19 lands. this works for elves because of the 8 mana dorks, Heritage Druid, and Elvish Archdruid.

Creatures

  • 3x Dwynen's Elite , this works great with Heritage Druid to pump out an Archdruid or a Ezuri on turn 2, and if you have two lands in play and a Elvish Mystic or Llanowar Elves, you then have three mana to dump Dwynen's Elite and Heritage Druid then have 3 mana and 4 elves to do what you want, all on turn 2.

  • 4x Elvish Archdruid this and an amazing card and one of the powerhouses of elves, beause you can normaly tap it for like 7-10 and thats a HUGE reason that elves works. You can use this to use Ezuri's overun ability or Joraga's

  • 1x Elvish Champion this card is amazing and a lot of people dont run any, this card is great with a lot of modern decks playing green, Jund, Valakut, Infect, and Dredge all having forests so having forest walk can be HUGE. Other wise its a worse Archdruid.

  • 4x Elvish Mystic just a great mana dork and allows us to have 3 mana on turn 2 which is HUGE, some replace it with Arbor Elf does the same thing, up to you. Just make sure you have 8 of soemthing like this, a 1 drop that can tap for a colour, preferably Green or Black.

  • 3x Ezuri, Renegade Leader this is one of our win conditions, some only run 2 of Ezuri simply because he is a Legendary Creature. I like runing 3 simply because he is able to be hit by Bolt, and there is just a lot of removal regardless.

  • 4x Heritage Druid there is a "combo" in our deck and it uses Heritage Druid + Nettle Sentinel , having 2 or even 1 of these out is pretty great, the best scenario is having 3 of them and then tapping all 3 using Heritage Druid's ability then playing something and having 3 attackers/blockers OR doing it again. Its pretty sweet, also using CoCo to flash in blockers untapps Nettle Sentinel and then we have another blocker.

  • 2x Joraga Warcaller this is also one of our win cons, kicking it about 7-15 times is AMAZING! becasue its not like Ezuri's because its constant, it doesnt give them trample tho, it also isnt able to regenerate elves but you dont need to when everything is a 9/9. Most elves list use these spots for Elvish Visionary

  • 4x Llanowar Elves just a great mana dork and allows us to have 3 mana on turn 2 which is HUGE, some replace it with Arbor Elf does the same thing, up to you. Just make sure you have 8 of soemthing like this, a 1 drop that can tap for a colour, preferably Green or Black.

  • 3x Nettle Sentinel is pretty sweet if you use Company to flash in blockers it also untapps Nettle Sentinel and then we have another blocker. This card is just sweet and a key to Elves.

  • 3x Shaman of the Pack this can win us the game on its own, its great to Company in for the win on there turn. droping in 2 of these with Company is just funnt as hell and happens more times than you would think.

Other Spells

What to side in and why?

  • 2x Abrupt Decay this is the only removeal in the entire Deck & sideboard, side this in when you need to keep your opponents creatures in check.

  • 1x Elvish Champion this is for when you need to out race someone and/or if they are playing green. REMEMBER do NOT side this in against the miror becasue note that it says ALL elves not ones you control? could be a little bit bad on the back swing.

  • 1x Fracturing Gust this is for Affinity and Bogles(GW Hexproof) because you can gain a TON of life and clear there board at the same time. the only rason I have one of these is because I only need one for my meta.

  • 3x Melira, Sylvok Outcast for infect and nothing else

  • 1x Nissa Revane burn. thats about it, i was once playing against burn and was at 7. over the course of 5-6 turns i got back up to 80 life.

  • 2x Nissa's Chosen

  • 3x Scavenging Ooze

  • 2x Surgical Extraction
