Notes
 
I hate Elf decks.  I played a lot during the Onslaught block, when the Elf deck was King, thanks to cards like Timberwatch Elf, Wirewood Herald, and basically the whole set of green Legion cards.  And my biggest rival has always played green almost exclusively.  So, yeah, there's bad blood there.  As a result, when I was poking through my collection looking at cards like Living Death, Strength of Night, and Haunted Crossroads, wondering how I could use them effectively, it struck me that I would very much like to play a deck in which you could kill off your own elves and call it strategy.

This is that deck.

Creepy, yes.  Unbalanced?  Probably.  But so very satisfying...

    I'm building your deck, just because I love the concept.

    I've been gone since 4th edition, but just got a slew later cards I have yet to learn. A nice guy let me purchase 2 big boxes that someone was getting rid of. I have yet to learn all that's in there, but your theme is my new goal.

    just checked your profile, hit me up with a message. I never thought I'd see evil elves. I like!

    I would love to pit my Elf deck against this.  Would make for great narrative.
