Yisan Hybrid Combo. Basically a combo deck that is super duper resilient and consistent. Fizzling is basically unheard of. This deck will probably lose to fast combo like Zur, but demolish stax like Teferi.

Wincon Chains:

• Combat win: Hornet Queen > Craterhoof

• Bioshaman win: Bioshaman > Acolyte > Seedborn > Kamahl

• Guardian win (needs devotion): Priest of Titania > Acolyte + Sabertooth > Guardian + Bellower > Archdruid

• Alt Guardian win: Selvala > Sabertooth > Guardian + Bellower > hate piece

• Elf win (needs a lot of elves): Symbiote > Priest > Archdruid > Sabertooth

• Combo win (inconsistent): Priest / Acolyte + Mantle / Staff of Domination

These are your main wins. The elf win is uncommon in my experience, as the Great Oak Guardian win requires less elves. The deck is also great at hating out opponents. A Scooze at 2 can kill Meren, a Nullmage Shepherd into Hornet Queen can hate out artifact decks.

Yisan's greatest strength is its resiliency and consistency. I've had people blow up all my lands with Jarad using Terastodon > Greater Good > Animate Dead and I still managed to win. The deck has so many alternate wincons in Craterhoof, Great Oak Guardian, Sabertooth, Bioshaman, and random artifact combos that it's hard for a deck to ever cut you out. Additionally, Yisan is very consistent. If nothing goes wrong, you're going to win with Bioshaman every single game. If there's a Mimeoplasm deck, you can find Scooze every game. The fact that your commander can tutor out any creature on basically the same turn every game makes this deck a very strong one.
