Ok I know this deck is not a great elf deck but it works like a dream. I still think it needs a lot of work though so please post some suggestions.

I have never had to mull more than once. It could just be luck.

Ok I cut the size by four and added two more forests. I don't want to put in too much land because the elves take care of that for the most part.

I want to get some elf token creators so joraga's ability will be insane. Then have the Quests to untap them.

One creature sweep and your holding on to your fatties whilst being pummeled. I never go below 19 without a very good reason.

Ok. I did that and I removed the four extra cards and added four more lands so far. I just did A LOT of sample draws and they are way better than before. I was actually in class doing sample draws and playing through a couple of turns.

I had copperhorn scout but I thought quest for renewal was safer considering copperhorn scout has to attack to untap my creatures.

If anything I would get seedborn muse.

Wire wood hivemaster
Glimpse of nature
Seed born muse
Beast master ascension
Essence warden
Summoners pact
Nissa revane
Chord of calling
Imperious perfect
Elvish visionary
Door of destinies
Elvish promenade

These are some of the cards I would like to have to at least tryout in my deck. I guess I could make a fake deck and see how it goes.

{lurking predators} I always good to cheat out stuff on your opponent's turn and then play your hand on your own :)
{ascentism} is always good too.

Why would you take out {Genisis Wave}? that would seem like a great card for low mana cost cards

I don't have genesis wave. I had copperhorn scouts and I took those out.
