The goal of this deck is simple: ramp fast and get a lot of value with Kodama of the East Tree in combination with several drawing engines and enter-the-battlefield effects.

To close the game, we're going to use our opponents' best weapons using the cloning effects… only we're going to have a lot more copies of those! Some of the clones enter without the Legendary types, and for the rest, Sakashima of a Thousand Faces and Mirror Gallery will avoid that our clones get destroyed. Importantly, our clones will clone Sakashima's copies instead of the original creatures to have redundancy in avoiding the legendary rule.

A secondary plan for closing the game is to use big threads (that we can also clone) - for example, Ulamog, the Ceaseless Hunger or Apex Devastator. Alternatively, we can use the combo of Kodama of the East Tree + Meloku the Clouded Mirror to create infinite 1/1s or use Scute Swarm to overwhelm our opponents with small creatures.

To protect ourselves, we're going to use a bunch of counters and our opponents' creatures (some we'll clone, some we'll kidnap and make our own) and spells to untap, bounce, or blink our clones so they can always be defending and become the better version of what's on the board at any given time.
