Tokens and clues, tokens and clues, and death. This deck is a factory for clues and tokens. Board presence and card advantage with every play, followed up by planeswalker pumps and big finishes with ormendahl, avacyn and the humble Confront the Unknown if one solitary token goes unblocked. This deck has nice tempo to hit fast and often. For the mid to late game it can quickly refill the board thanks to Ulvenwald Mysteries. There are many win conditions this deck works towards, if a Tireless Tracker is left on board too long, it will get big fast, as can Hanweir Militia Captain and Thalia's Lieutenant .

I've tried to address some of the problems I've come across play testing, having too many cards i didn't want to play at the time. Hanweir Militia Captain ^Flip is a great card in the deck but i don't want to play it until i can flip it the turn after so i've put in Lambholt Pacifist ^Flip and Duskwatch Recruiter ^Flip as my two drops of choice to play on turn 2. Lambholt Pacifist ^Flip is a great early game blocker and will usually be pumped on turn 3 by Thalia's Lieutenant or Nissa, Voice of Zendikar to be a formidable attacker too. Duskwatch Recruiter ^Flip is a more expendable 2 drop than Hanweir Militia Captain ^Flip but if he does survive then provides good card advantage for later in the game, flipping either of the cards is a rare occurrence as ideally i'm playing a card every turn. I've taken out a tirless tracker and an Ulvenwald Mysteries out as having one of either already provides tremendous advantage, removing 2 Canopy Vista shouldn't affect our chances as our curve is quite low, and one of the big problems this deck would run into was being flooded.
