No Gaea's Cradle makes life a struggle. Selvala, Explorer Returned can't quite compete with T1 commanders without that legendary land + Crop Rotation, Sylvan Scrying, etc. So, because I don't have it, I've opted to play a more midrangey strategy. Soul of the Harvest, Guardian Project, Garruk's Uprising, and Beast Whisperer form a kind of synergy engine with the high number of creatures that the deck is playing. The plan is to go wide with a kind of Glimpse of Nature explosion, then protect it with Dauntless Escort, Selfless Spirit, Luminous Broodmoth, and Flawless Maneuver.
