Green Elves

This is a fun deck that I play when I have some spare time. It isn't super competitive but it is a lot of fun, and can do some crazy things once it ramps.


Alright, so here's the list I'm currently using:

Elf Wave  
Land - 20
20 Forest

Creatures - 30
Copperhorn Scout
Ezuri, Renegade Leader
Elvish Archdruid
Fauna Shaman
Viridian Emissary
Llanowar Elves
Joraga Warcaller
Joraga Treespeaker
Artifacts - 4
Caged Sun

Spells - 6
Beastmaster Ascension
Genesis Wave
Sideboard:
Tajuru Preserver
Viridian Corrupter
Ezuri's Archers
Wurmcoil Engine



The general idea here is you ramp up some mana and then do something crazy with either Ezuri or drop an enormous Joraga Warcaller, or you Genesis Wave for half of your deck.

But that is merely an end-game plan. Your early game plan is that you are playing elves. Attack with them.

The Beastmaster Ascension are very nice early or late game. Combined with an Ezuri Trample, Ascension means game over.

Caged Sun is in here for the additional mana ramp, and the creature pump it provides.

In the sideboard we have Tajuru Preserver that helps against Vampires and Eldrazi. We have Viridian Corrupters if we are up against an artifact heavy deck. Ezuri's Archers help against decks that have early fliers, and Wurmcoil is in there to give you an off-green option that is a big threat in its own right.

The deck has been winning a lot online, which is fairly surprising, as I didn't think the deck would do very well after creating it, and I've had to make only minor modifications from its original list.

So what do you guys think? What cards would be much better in this deck, and what would you take out to put them in?

Let me know in a comment down below.

Thanks for reading!
