4 Murmoring Bosk can be played to make the manabase a little more solid since you have 8 changlings and 3 treefolk maybe should be 4. Oona's Prowler doesn't really combo well with Doran. Vess could also be a great addition to the deck maybe a 2 of. Oblivion ring is a possible removal spell you could use since it targets nonland. Cloudthresher maindeck Primal Command also. Faeries probably are going to be running rampant. Bitterblossom main and or side could also be quite possible. Card choices are up to you but I think alot of the cards I discussed are metagame choices and overall quality card choices.

u need to play 4 doran. maybe wonderer's twig or spring leaf drum to fix mana. eyeblights ending is not that good bc elves should be popular. i would play o ring or crib swap over eyeblights. u will need some fatties like cloudthresher for the faeries match up. oona's prowler is not good either bc it dies to easily. here is my version

4 murmuring bosk
4 gilt-leaf palace
4 vivid grove
2 plains
4 swamp
6 forest

4 doran
4 chameleon colossus
3 shriekmaw
4 treefolk harbinger
2 cloudthresher

4 wanderer's twig
4 nameless inversion
4 fertile ground
2 crib swap
3 garruk
2 primal command
2 profane command

sb
4 bitter blossom
2 cloudthresher
2 oblivion ring
2 reach of branches
1 shriekmaw
1 warren pilfierer's

Feudkiller's Verdict would be really good also. If there was some good mana ramp in Lorwyn then I would run it in the main. Also Teeg is good for the control matches. Spring Cleaning is obv better in the format as most of the artfacts are lame. The ones that are good you can answer with O-ring.
