I'd cut down to 60 cards. If you want some help with that, I'd say {viridian joiner} does nothing for you, and you could do with one less {essence warden}. Also, how has 14 lands been working for you? If there's one thing I've learned playing pod, it's that you should never totally rely upon mana dorks, seeing as few decks will let you keep them.

Yeah it desperately needs more lands. There is a combo elf deck that used to be popular or a little while when {Beck/call} came out, but its not as popular. If you like combo decks and elves that might be worth looking into

14 lands works great.     Need to put beck/call in there.   Viridian joiner keeps up with the mana in the long run tho...

I'd run the elf that lets you discard a creature to search for a creature (I can't remember her name, which annoys me, because I played a ton with my elf deck today, which she is in) over summoner's pact, because she is cheaper, and doesn't make you lose if they {boom bust}, and she's a 2/2
