This deck started off as a counter focused deck, but slowly changed into this.

Primary win-con is beefing up an early Yahenni, Undying Partisan then finishing it off with Walking Ballista or Verdurous Gearhulk.

Winding Constrictor and Hapatra, Vizier of Poisons on turn 2 depending on what I need. Snek to prep up for Rishkar, Peema Renegade or Yahenni, Undying Partisan on turn 3 or Hapatra, Vizier of Poisons if I think I will need board control. Undergrowth Champion is another good follow up on the Snek.

Blisterpod gives me access to a turn 2 Yahenni, Undying Partisan or serves as a good sac target to give Yahenni, Undying Partisan indestructible.

Catacomb Sifter drops a token and the scry is useful as I don't have much draw and my top deck around turn 5-6 needs to be strong.

Eldritch Evolution is just another way to guarantee that I can get Yahenni, Undying Partisan out. The Eldrazi come in useful here too as they are an easy target for sac cost.

Couple board wipes to keep board-state under control. Yahenni's Expertise Shouldn't kill most of my important creatures as they should have counters by then. Plus, it lets me cheat out pretty much any of my core creatures easily. I like Remorseless Punishment because I feel like it can help me stabilize if I'm having trouble finishing off the last bit of HP.
