Version 3.0 - - - 2/28/23

---

Welcome to the Fochlucan (Fawk-lew-kuhn) College! The Fochlucan grounds are where all the finest Green Whisperers, Arcane Hierophants, and all other multiclassed Druid/Bards hone their craft. Here we learn the ancient and guarded secrets of combining naturally-derived divine magic and musically-based arcane magic into one harmonious whole. Soothe wild beasts with song, walk the winds, generate phantasmal terrain, and magically buff your animal companion through the stratosphere; it's all possible--and so much more!--at the Fochlucan College!

Kind of a standard Yisan toolbox deck, but with a strong Elf subtheme. Mostly for novelty, but many elves are great utility creatures and obviously there are all the rampers and dorks--which were in the original build anyway. The deck is designed so that if Yisan keeps getting whacked or can't get online (Pithing Needle, etc.), I can still ramp into the fatties or avalanche all the little elves with Overwhelming Stampede, Craterhoof Behemoth, and/or Beastmaster Ascension.

All in all this may be my strongest deck, despite not being my most expensive deck. It's also my first Green deck (or even deck with green in it) and has caused my immense love for mono-Green to bloom. I don't adore how derivative constant tutoring can be, but there are many paths to follow with Yisan's verse counters so there is still variety.
