I read a lot, but it is really very complex to follow the different sub-topics. Especially because there is not "search thread" functions. It would be nice to have some sub-threads.

Do you think Summoners pact is much superior over Green Sun's Zenit? When we combo off I think the 1 mana more does not make a difference. But if I have 4 elves in play and only the tutor in the hand, I might want to go for an elf lord and attack next round. This is much easier if I don't have to pay the 4 mana.

You do your combo the best you can then after you bait them into sweeping you drop that bomb!!!
I also thougth about it. Since we only want to play 1-2 i guess, it is important to tutor for it. For this Chord of calling would be better than Zenit (instant) and Summoners pact (4 mana in upkeep without elves is tough).

if you face a turn 2 ethersworn canonist, you just concede?. I thougth about spot removal in SB for Living wish, but duplicant or triskelion where the best (expensive) ideas I could come up with. Probably too fancy to think that spot removal is necessary if we have 6-8 mana.
