The Sparks and Photons make this a non-mono deck. Anyways, with a Unupgraded Fallen Elf, you can get a abomination, a mutant, or a dead creature. The Sheilds can easily be destroyed by any Permanent control, just 2 doesn't make you get them fast, add 1 more. Take out 2 Pillars for 2 Sparks, just to give you a better hand.
