This is what it looks like, a Mono-Green Deck, with Yisan, the Wanderer Bard as my commander. Basically, the entire goal of this deck is ramping mana, and searching for creatures. In addition to Yisan's ability to tutor a creature equal to the current Verse Counters on him. As well as fishing creatures from the Graveyard with Eternal Witness. In addition to the creature based searches for a card I also have Worldly Tutor, Chord of Calling, and Green Sun's Zenith for Instant and Sorcery speeds. And the Enchantment Defense of the Heart, has a similar effect. The other aspect of this deck is Ramp, which it does in many of the traditional ways, featuring a full complement of Mana-Dork Elves, Birds of Paradise, as well as other function one drops, i.e. Veteran Explorer, Ulvenwald Tracker, and Sylvan Safekeeper. Other than that, I'm looking to round out my curve, possibly ending at the recently revealed Emrakul, the Promised End, or if nothing else, have a couple 11 and 12 drops to make full use of my ramp, as well as Yisan's search function.

In terms of any help, my biggest question is would Craterhoof Behemoth be useful in this deck? I can get a board-state that would allow for him to be a game-ender, but would it be worth the price tag in this deck? That and Blightsteel Colossus are my long-term goals for trading/acquisition given the cost, as well as possibly Sylvan Library to improve my draws.

Also, as a note, I have looked into infinite combos that are possible with this deck and have consciously chosen to not have pieces in this deck. I'm personally just not a fan of them, I have Watch the Queen Conquer as my infinite combo deck, and despite the competitiveness, this deck can be capable of I'm looking to refine, but not to go infinite. At least on purpose.

The Gaea's Cradle is a World Championship Gold border. I had been saving up for three years for a "real" copy and was literally $20 away when it spiked twice to $450. At this point, its so far out of my price range I've just kind of given up on getting one in the next ten years.

Log Line: Generate a lot of mana either to fuel Yisan Loops or a hard-cast board presence and overwhelm opponents.
