I've been wanting to build Squirrel tribal in EDH for years but it was never good enough because it was never 'true' Squirrel tribal. But now Chatterfang is here! It's like Christmas came early and now I can try (keyword, try!) to build the most competetive Squirrel Tribal EDH deck the world has ever seen.

The win-cons are simple:
Win with squirrels.
But the route changes.
Chatterfang could win through Combat Damage, the Squirrels could grow massively wide and trample over everyone, or with ETB/LTB/Death trigger shenanigans, they can machine gun the opponents down one damage (or one card from their library) at a time.

A few notable combos

- Chatterfang, Squirrel General + Pitiless Plunderer = Just pay black and sacrifice a squirrel for infinite ETB/LTB/Death triggers, add a Parallel Lives or Doubling Season effect for infinite mana and infinite squirrels, too! Just give the squirrels Haste and the game is yours.
- Squirrel Nest + Earthcraft = The most famous of all infinite squirrel combos. The downside here is that all but one squirrel is tapped at the end of the squirrel generation cycle.
- Scurry Oak + Ivy Lane Denizen = with Ivy Lane Denizen on the field, play Scurry Oak. Denizen will trigger, asking you to select a creature to put a +1/+1 Counter, choose Scurry Oak. Scurry Oak will trigger generating a Squirrel token. That Squirrel is green, so it will trigger Denizen. Denizen will select Scurry Oak, Scurry Oak will make a Squirrel, and so on.
- Chatterfang, Squirrel General + Earthcraft + Temur Sabertooth + Deranged Hermit + Chatterstorm = This is a bit lengthy but here we go. With Chatterfang and Earthcraft out, play Temur Sabertooth. After Sabertooth, play Deranged Hermit. Hermit will generate 4 squirrel tokens, being doubled by Chatterfang, resolving with 8 squirrels and Hermit now in play. Use Earthcraft to tap two squirrels to generate enough mana for Sabertooth's ability, then bounce Hermit back to your hand. Tap 5 Squirrels using Earthcraft to untap 5 basics to play Deranged Hermit. Generate 8 Squirrels. Use 2 of your untapped squirrels with Earthcraft, untap 2 basics for Sabertooth, bounce Hermit, and use 5 Squirrels to untap enough basics to play Hermit. Generate 8 squirrels. And so on. Finally play Chatterstorm with an infinitely large storm count and have more squirrels than you will ever know what to do with.
