Original deck by Slashdance, all testing and reconfigurations done by me. Please go check out his deck here:Forest Tribal, LoL, it is a really fun one to play and without their initial deck build I wouldn't have found this gem of a commander, so thank you Slashdance. I beg you, go read his build and description for a cool story telling of how the principle of the two decks work.

So without further ado, the deck:

Playing cards like Lotus Cobra, Sol Ring, all the mana dorks, Sakura-Tribe Elder, anything to mana ramp to Commander. The key to this deck is him, so don't lose him at all costs. Cards like Timber Protector and Heroic Intervention can keep him alive from wipes. Don't worry too much about health. You'll soon find out why ;)
This is around turn 6-7, when people who are switched on will see how much of a threat you are/ becoming. It's around here you use things like Soul of the Harvest, Ambush Commander to turn all lands/ forests into creatures and start to draw from this fact. Also cards like Perilous Forays can help you double your mana really easily. PS the lands coming in and those sacced coming back will trigger lotus cobra.;) This stage it's a simple draw fest until you find a winning combo or you mill yourself to death. Each to their own I guess
There are various infinite combos and win conditions within the deck. Here are some that I have encountered whilst testing: Please note the following:

  • All combos require Yedora, Grave Gardener to be on the field. Protect him at all costs

  • The infinite creature combos all require Concordant Crossroads to produce infinite mana (Spoilers for combo #2) and give the creatures the ability to swing

What's his life points? IT'S OVER 9000!!!: Zuran Orb + Ambush Commander OR Natural Affinity OR Life and Limb OR Living Lands OR Nature's Revolt OR Rude Awakening = Infinite life. Pretty simple, makes you impervious to damage except for commander damage. In which cause I suggest you choose another another great combo from the options below.

Infinite Mana, but still no Bitches: The combo above + Concordant Crossroads = This allows for the sacced land creatures to be able to tap. You can also use Perilous Forays or even Altar of Dementia

Aren't we Mono Green? Why are we acting like Dimir???: Altar of Dementia + Ambush Commander OR Natural Affinity OR Life and Limb OR Living Lands OR Nature's Revolt OR Rude Awakening = Playing Blue Black without a single Island or Swamp, savvy. If you ever want to scratch that milling itch, feel free to whip this combo out and make all your friends hate you. Nothing feels worse than being milled out. The salt on the wound? You didn't even play Dimir.

The Unstoppable March of the Insects: Scute Swarm + Concordant Crossroads + Infinite Life = Infinite scute swarms. Need I say more?

Bee swarm? Nay, Elemental Swarm: Titania, Protector of Argoth OR Titania, Nature's Force + Any source that turns lands into creatures + any sacc outlet = Interestingly enough, when a creauture dies, it immediately goes to the graveyeard, even before abilites like Yedora, Grave Gardener come into effect, meaning Titania, Protector of Argoth can go super sayun with her generation of Elementals. If you have both out, you get twice the infinite amount of elementals. #winning too much

In short, there are a few ways to combo this deck. Whether you're choosing to go to infinity and beyond with scutes or just sitting there like Senator Armstrong, taking every hit with your infinite life, remember to be humble in your victory. I wish I say that so that people respect you, but it's more cause you'll piss off everyone to the point they won't vs you anymore if you gloat. XD

Anyways, have fun. I am always open to suggestions so feel free to drop them down below and I'll respond when I can.
