Serious Elf

Yeah, yeah. I know. Oh who would have thought that Andrew would write an article about elves. Well about as many people who would have thought Chris would have written an Article which ends with a just a bunch of jabble. Or does it? Yes it does. Does it? Why of course because that’s how he makes his points. But I will get onto the article because I don’t want to be playing any “blame games” or so to speak.
Now building an elf deck that can win is hard. It's not just throwing in a bunch of decent elves. If I did that I would be a [bigger] scrub. And I would be damned if I was Eric. First off, when building elf you need to decide one of three roads to take.

Trinity: This deck uses cards like Plow Under and Tangle wire to stall its opponent until it gets the mana it needs. So just because you use crappy cards like Treetop Rangers doesn’t mean you can say its not Trinity Green Cory. The kill of the deck usually is Deranged Hermit or Masticore. Search for either by means of Living Wish, or the Hermit by Poacher. Simple enough.

Beat down: Beat down is basically Trinity with out the stall cards. It uses more speed to beat its opponent before they can do anything. It uses things like Llanawar Sentinal and even Skyshroud Elite. Still can use Priest though to get all its mana needs if it wants too.

Elfball: This is what I consider the weakest of the three. It uses with like K. Torch or Ghitue Fire to hit its opponent for 20. I say it's the weakest because it usually depends on that giant cheese spell to win. And we all know that no decks use blue in them. But to ensure you draw more than one, Burning wish can be a great card to be used in the deck.

Now whatever one you like is ok. But I will give you a decklist of each that I, the elf genius, will personally make or “copy, paste” for you to look at.

Well that’ it for this article. Or is it? I guess so. Or I guess not. Well i better stop that. It gets REEAAAAAAAAALLLLLLYYYYYY old after the first few thousands of times. And before all of you say that I wrote the first part of this article and agree with Adam only because he is my brother, go fork yourselves. It’s not my fault Adams right 89% of the time. By the way I am looking to buy Elves of people. So as Chris would say- Elves Elves Elves, Money money money. Buy elves for money. My money for elves. Money money money. Elves elves elves.
