With the Lorwyn Tribal Goodness so rampant, it seems like elementals have some potential as well. This is basically 5/3 deck, but could probably stand to be improved.

Pandemonium is really good with Nova Chaser. Maybe you should find room for some. You also have alot of two ofs. Pick your best elementals and up it to four ofs.

Pandemonium + Ball Lightning + Blistering Firecat + Nova Chaser sounds like lots of fun, but it would be kinda expensive...

You could use Incandescent Soulstoke rather than Pandemonium; the only downside is that it's going to be a prime target for removal.

I played an elemental deck at the pre-release, and I've since adapted it with Legacy-legal cards to improve it. It's just a typical non-Stax aggro-control deck that's pretty reliant on the Soulstoke, and it's quite good. Sadly, I don't think that it's got much of a place in Legacy quite yet. At least, not without somehow revising the theme and finding a parallel strategy.
