My version of Sucks to be you. Destroy your opponents land as quickly as you can. Declare treefolk with Conspiracy, and play Ambush Commander, making every land and creature that you control synergize with Timber Protector. Crucible of Worlds and Azusa, Lost but Seeking reduce the ouch from Zuran Orb. This combo also works with Thelonite Druid if you don't need the life gain, or if Ambush Commander isn't making things big enough. Play Winter Orb and Root Maze to ruin what your opponent does get a chance to play, and keep yourself in the game with Patron of the Orochi and Amulet of Vigor. Drop in Helldozer to deal with Cabal Coffers and Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth combos, or multicolor decks that use a lot of gates or shock lands.

I'm trying to decide what to main deck, and what to sideboard. Ideally four of those Forests should be Bayous so that I could more easily play my black cards, while still having all the land in the deck be Forests, but there's no way I can afford those right now, and I want to keep this realistic. Let me know if I'm missing anything I absolutely have to have. Thanks for your feedback!
