Subject: Elf Swarm by: Gabriel Giraldo (extended format)

Elf Swarm

The deck’s strategy is to either hold your opponent off until you amass a 
huge army to blitz kreig him or to slowly ping away at him. Choose depending 
on the situation. Also the order of which you play certain things is 
crucial, i.e. Wirewood Hivemaster. Play this then a creature that way you 
get an insect token.

Lands:
23x	Forest
2x	City of Brass (or Forsaken City)
Total - 25

Creatures:
2x	Tribal Force Mage
4x	Elvish Vanguard
1x 	Seedborn Muse
2x 	Elvish Archers
2x 	Elvish Champion
1x 	Elvish Soultiller
3x 	Fyndhorn Elves
3x	Llanowar Elves
2x 	Wellwisher
1x 	Heedless one
1x 	Thorn Elemental
2x 	Timberwatch Elves
2x 	Wirewood Hivemaster
1x	Elvish Pioneer
1x 	Gempalm Strider
Total – 27

Other:
1x	Coat of Arms
1x 	Steely Resolve
1x 	Vernal Equinox
1x 	Test of Endurance
2x	Fog Patch
2x 	Exoskeletal Armor
Total – 8

Combos:
I.	Heedless One + Timberwatch Elf = 2x Heedless One’s Attack
II.	Test of Endurance + Wellwisher = eventually win the game
III.	Steely Resolve = your elves cant be targets of spells or abilities
IV.	Elvish Vanguard = gains +1/+1 every time you play an elf, not much left 
to say
V.	Coat of Arms + Elvish Champion = all your elves gain huge power boost and 
forest walk
VI.	Thorn Elemental + Timberwatch Elf + Coat of Arms + Exoskeletal Armor = 
giant load of damage if hits, usually enough to win the game.
VII.	Seedborn Muse + Vernal Equinox = play enchantments and creatures on 
opponents turn
VIII.	Seedborn Muse on its own is amazing

There are a few combos. The deck works by having all the different elves 
maintain a nice control of the field with strong monsters, pumping effects, 
and life gaining. Also with Steely Resolve keeping your elves untargetable 
they become hard to get rid of, since you can pump them or block with a 
stronger creature.
The deck though faces problems with 3 things. Early walls, Wrath of God, and 
anything with protection from green or forest walk. Tell me if you see 
anything else wrong with my deck or if you want some tips or if you want to 
gimee any suggestions…
