I don't know, probably too many different things going on.

[(GigaDrillBreaker)]

Considering hallar counts their +1/+1 counters, rather than power, blackblade reforged doesn't seem to be getting you far.

 

The focus on elves supports a "going wide" playstyle, so single target boosts that don't work in counters don't do you much good. Similarly, big guys like grun and thorn elemental really only dilute the advantages of elves, as it provides less mileage than something more synergistic, while also giving use to the opponents' cards that would otherwise be made useless, such as treason effects and single target removal.

 

I'm not fond of fireball variants like banefire, but if you really want to run one, Clan Defiance is kinda funking nuts.

 

Hour of devastation feels sketchy, boardwipes are counterproductive in a big creature deck like this.

looks like elves to me. some suggestions

 

Wirewood symbiote

Quirion Ranger

Heritage Druid

Birchlore Rangers

Nettle Sentinel

Green Sun's Zenith

Eternal WItness

 

These are all the backbone of any elf deck. None of these cards are particularly expensive and you would be doing yourself a disservice for not using them.
