Elves Orb

        2 Dust Bowl
        11 Forest
        4 Rishadan Port
        4 Elvish Champion
        4 Elvish Archers
        4 Nemata, Grove Guardian
        4 Elvish Lyrist
        4 Urborg Elf
        4 Quirion Elves
        4 Llanowar Elves
        4 Elder Druid
        3 Feroz's Ban
        4 Tangle Wire
        4 Static Orb

SB:  2 Wing Snare
SB:  3 Hurricane
SB:  2 Tranquility
SB:  4 Tangle
SB:  4 Desert Twister

This deck is working better than it looks. And finally uses the good old Elder Druid again. The deck works like this:
You first play some elves, and if you are lucky, an Elvish Champion. This sometimes can do quite some beatings.
When you got a few lands, and a few creatures which cannot attack because of blockers, just play the Static
Orb and Tangle Wire combo. This cards usually shut down some decks completely. When they haven't played
defense yet, you can keep them low on mana with the Rishadan Ports. With the Elder Druid you can tap your own
Static Orb so you can untap normal yourself. After a while, when you manage to keep his lands tapped with your
Rishadan Ports, so should play a Feroz's Ban to completely shut down most decks. You should have mana enough 
to keep casting creatures because you can tap Static Orb.

Under construction.
Soon you find here a Big and Bad deck. Using Big Green or Black creatures like Spiritmonger and Blastoderm,
protected by some creature elimination, duress, and fast green and black mana.

Air Control

        9 Forest
        9 Island
        4 Yavimaya Coast
        4 Dominate
        4 Counterspell
        4 Mystic Snake
        4 Mahamoti Djinn
        2 Air Elemental
        4 Fertile Ground
        4 Blastoderm
        4 Birds of Paradise
        4 Temporal Spring
        4 AEther Mutation

SB:  4 Seal of Removal
SB:  4 Tangle
SB:  3 Creeping Mold
SB:  4 Misdirection

This is the deck Dirkjan uses mostly lately. It has 30 mana sources......... And it needs all of them! Might even
be too less but I refuse to play more. The deck is plain and simple. Start with a birdie, next turn a Temporal
Spring on opponent's land. Which makes the card a Time Walk. And after that, just overwhelm your opponent 
with too expensive casting cost power cards. Mahamoti Djinn and Dominate rule versus all the dominant decks
I have seen. A few counterspells are the finishing touch.

Selenia's World is the deck to choose if you can't decide to choose sides. Good, or Bad. Disruption, defense.
Life or Death. Selenia's World has it all..... Except for Selenia Dark Angel herself. She should have been reprinted
in 7th. Just to complete this deck.
