First off, this is built to be a combo deck with the perfect win con of I make my opponents draw all the cards in their decks and lose from being unable to draw. The deck is somewhat versatile and can win in a number of ways.

Main wincon: Infinite mana + a creature that pumps target creature + Grothama, All-Devouring. This will let me play out my deck (and graveyard) in most cases and allow me to win as soon as I get an infinite mana combo off. I can win by playing one of the two cards that lets me pick fights and then having grothama fight a creature an opponent controls, pumping that creature with Nylea, God of the Hunt or Rhonas the Indomitable and watching them lose from being unable to draw before untapping Grothama or Ulvenwald Tracker with Umbral Mantle or Sword of the Paruns and moving onto the next player and doing it again ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

So, there are a few ways to get infinite mana:

Temur Sabertooth + Swiftfoot Boots/Lightning Greaves + Selvala, Heart of the Wilds/ Karametra's Acolyte

Umbral Mantle/Sword of the Paruns + Viridian Joiner/Selvala, Heart of the Wilds/ Karametra's Acolyte/Gyre Sage

Optimal Hand: Forest, Forest, Forest, Utopia Sprawl, Viridian Joiner, Umbral Mantle, Sol Ring

T1: Forest Utopia Sprawl onto Forest

T2: Forest Viridian Joiner

T3: Forest Sol Ring Umbral Mantle

If everything stays on board, this should be infinite mana turn 3.. Pump Viridian Joiner up to around 60-70 Power and cast Grothama, go to combat, have him fight Grothama, draw VJ's power worth of cards, be sure VJ is untapped as phases pass, at this point you should have drawn everything needed for the main win-con listed above, and you have infinite mana so you can play it all.

Key cards:

Gigantosaurus enables both Selvala, Heart of the Wilds and Karametra's Acolyte to go infinite with untap equipment

Temur Sabertooth is amazing with so many cards in the deck with ETB triggers and his ability to make Grothama leave the field.

Stuffy Doll is amazing in this deck and can provide a way to remove opponents who do not have creatures out for Grothama to fight during the wining turn. It can be cast, have massive creature fight it to kill off an opponent, pick it up with Temur Sabertooth, recast rinse and repeat.

Setessan Tactics/Ulvenwald Tracker enable Grothama to fight for the game winning card draws.

Berserk can make a set up turn go crazy when you hit Gigantosaurus or Ghalta, Primal Hunger with it before they fight Grothama and then sac them to one of the draw cards... mmm thats good stuff and often leads to GG.
