Normal Green Devotion shell with Elvish Mystic and Courser of Kruphix. Genesis Hydra and Hornet Queen are card-advantage threats, and Hydra Broodmaster is a way to go over-the-top of other ramp strategies. Eidolon of Blossoms functions as a way to refuel while Frontier Siege provides a way to take advantage of those extra cards.

The white splash is primarily for Ajani, Mentor of Heroes as another way to produce more threats, either through finding something in the top four cards or just pumping a mana dork to become relevant in the lategame. Banishing Light gives the deck a nice removal option against difficult-to-answer threats on the opposing side (it's also fun to hit with Genesis Hydra). Finally, Nylea, God of the Hunt is a way to push through damage as well as an excellent mana sink and resilient threat.

The sideboard is pretty straightforward--Arbor Colossus is for Jeskai and Mardu, Hunt the Hunter is for other devotion strategies as well as Abzan, Genesis Hydra and Temur Sabertooth are for control decks, Nylea's Disciple and Bow of Nylea for aggro, Valorous Stance is for either removal-heavy decks or opposing big creature decks, and Reclamation Sage are for opposing Banishing Light, Whip of Erebos, and Jeskai Ascendancy .
