This is my first take at a Elf Pledge deck. This is just an initial write-up for the idea and I have not tested this in any way as of yet. Currently I do not have many of the rares and Zende but this is a list I am currently working towards collecting. Feedback is welcome from any interested in this build but for now this is just a meme deck.
Things I am interested in trying:
- More interaction with counters/removal
- Gouing Auralian for more pledge support (glasshoppers)
- Adding the pledge Eilyn
Let me know what you think and if anyone sleeves this up let me know how it runs.

I tried out the deck since I love tribal decks. Made a few changes (new list is here https://eternalwarcry.com/decks/details/iX_SVRmQKQg/elfs-pledge-beta-ver )
Territorial Elf was cut to reduce the units that cannot block.
Haunting Scream was cut as I did not use it at all unless Dizo's Office was down and I could lifesteal (your thoughts on why you had it in the deck and market would be great).
Lethrai Target Caller has been awesome for me as it makes even Dark Elf a serious offensive threat (and every elf if you buff it enough with Lethrai Hideaway).
Elder Astrologer is DA BOMB in this deck! His buff is usually game ending for a bunch of reasons (it can refill your life, hand and remove a blocker in one swing most of the times - think of a flying/quickdraw/overwhelm/lifesteal Shadowlands Borderscout and you get the picture!!
I added Burglarize (relic hate), Devastating Setback (hand disruption & and mass weenie removal), Lethrai Skystrider (to enable one massive game finishing swing over blockers).
I would love some feedback/discussion as I would like to further tune this deck to something really competitive.
