The original list focused on God-Eternal Oketra and Find / Finality, but that's not strong enough anymore. Rotation happened and the Knight/Adventure-shell provides much better value than Find/Finality. Eldraine and Theros made artifacts and enchantments a lot more important, which in return causes this deck to become good at something again. Where as it was just sub-par compared to planeswalker decks before rotation, it is now a playable anti-meta deck. Oketra is still bad, but Trostani is good.

Key cards:

Knight of Autumn is one of the best utility cards in Standard right now. Can destroy all of the current key meta-cards - Witch's Oven, Trail of Crumbs, Fires of Invention and Doom Foretold.

Faerie Guidemother + Lucky Clover ends games. Doesn't even need much of a board presence like Smitten Swordmaster. Can be boarded out in control matchups in favor of Shifting Ceratops.

Edgewall Innkeeper is the main card draw generator, where as Order of Midnight makes insane card advantage with Lucky Clover.

optional: Kraul Harpooner kills Gilded Goose and counters any kind of blue flyers deck. Knight of the Ebon Legion is a cheap, efficient and spamable threat. Also a cmc 1 blocker against mono red. Smitten Swordmaster and Lucky Clover end games pretty easily together. Trostani Discordant pumps the board for a quick finisher and she creates lifelink blockers.
