Can you taste the ghosts
Who shed their creaking hosts?
But seas forever boil
Trees will turn to soil

tl;dr - it's Yarok lands ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

This deck and post are both works in progress and will be updated when I can find time to devote to it. I simply wanted to get it down for discussion purposes.

Primarily, the deck wants to win by beating down with either Field of the Dead tokens or Rude Awakening/Sylvan Awakening mudmen. Alternatively, Seasons Past + Rude Awakening + Demonic Tutor + 14+ mana from lands = infinite mana, infinite tutoring by tutoring a tutor with your Tutor, and crucially, infinite land untaps. From there, the goal is to find Kamahl, Fist of Krosa to pump your mudmen you animated with Rude Awakening to arbitrary sizes and attack for the win. If that doesn't work for some reason Nephalia Drownyard is included as a way to mill everyone out, with Voidslime/Disallow to stifle Eldrazi titan triggers. Don't forget to blow up everyone's permanents with Assassin's Trophy for good measure!

I'm on the fence about the painlands. With all the fetches and ways to recur them I find I run out of targets, so they might be cut for basics.
