This deck utilizes Yisan to tutor for creatures needed to complete a combo. This deck attempts to go for a combo win rather than the usual Craterhoof Behemoth win. This deck is reduntant and resilient but can fall back on Craterhoof if needed. This deck is built to try and get the combo quickly but can rebuild if it gets discrupted. This deck is more offensive and aggressive than most Yisan or mono-green decks, pushing to win on turn 5, rather than trying to control the board and build up it's board state. The deck revolves around the combo of Karametra's Acolyte + Temur Sabertooth + Wirewood Symbiote + an elf (this combo will be explained at the bottom). Selvala, Heart of the Wilds is a good back up for Karametra's Acolyte. There are no backups for Wirewood Symbiote or Temur Sabertooth. The first elf you want to tutor for is Elvish Visionary. If Beast Whisperer is in play, any elf will work. This will draw your deck into your hand and create a lot of mana as well but not unlimited. Once your deck is drawn into your hand, then replace Elvish Visionary with Dwynen's Elite. If Lys Alan Huntmaster is in play, any elf will work. This will create infinite tokens and infinite mana. At this point, with your deck in your hand, you will want to get Prowling Serpopard, Destiny Spinner, and Asceticism on the battlefield to protect your combo pieces. Its a good idea to try and have Prowling Serpopard or Destiny Spinner in play before attempting the combo since the chosen elf and Wirewood Symbiote must be cast. Cast Concordant Crossroads or Finale of Devastation to give the tokens haste. Move to combat and swing out with your hasty tokens.

STEP 1. Tap Karametra's Acolyte or Selvala, Heart of the Wilds. (The card will need to tap for 1 (cost of Wirewood Symbiote) + 2 (activation cost of Temur Sabertooth ability) + (CMC of chosen elf) + 1 extra (which will end up floating). 6 mana will cover the two primary elves. For this example well use Elvish Visionary as the elf with Karametra's Acolyte tapping for 6 green mana. STEP 2. Return the elf to your hand with Wirewood Symbiote ability. This will untap Karametra's Acolyte STEP 3. Return Wirewood Symbiote to hand with Temur Sabertooth ability (4 mana left). This is necessary due to Wirewood Symbiote text. STEP 4. Recast both Wirewood Symbiote (3 mana left) and the elf (1 mana left), getting the elf's ETB trigger. You will be left with 1+ floating mana every time the combo is completed, generating the infinite mana. REPEAT steps 1-4 infinite times.
