This is a Combo ramp deck with a huge toolbox!! Bob the builder would be proud of Josu, as he has tools for almost everything!
Base frame of the deck is built around a T4 combo with Josu Vess, Lich Knight that I got the idea from Jimmy_Chinchila.
T1-land.
T2-land + Elfhame Druid.
T3 land + kicked Grow from the Ashes, fetching 1 forest at least, then playing a second Elfhame Druid.
T4 land (now have 6 lands) + kicked Josu Vess, Lich Knight.

After that I went ham and added in Mastermind's Acquisitionx4 to find combo pieces or problem solvers, figuring that the deck could afford to cast masterminds and a second spell in the same turn thanks to all the ramp. Weaver of Currents has a great home here acting as a slower, but more consistent elfhame, sense it can ramp none kicker spells better. Most spells in the deck have multiple mono color mana cost symbols as well, and the ones that don't are cheap to cast anyway.
The deck needs black and green mana early, with just a splash of blue by t3 or t4. The real hard part in making the mana base for the deck is the fact that if you were to kick 4x grow from the ashes and crack 4x evolving wilds you would run out of basic lands as there are only 9 and that would pull 12 from the deck, but I think that's okay because we should be casting some huge stuff with 9 lands out anyways, and with 1 non basic land we can cast everything in the deck (josu needing 10).
I'm not sure if I got all the answers I need into the sideboard, masterminds making them all live cards is sweet. And if you don't know how to use mastermind's aqcuisition + Wildest Dreams just sit and think about it for awhile. Hint: it's pretty mean card advantage that can let you multi tutor and helps turn all your 1 ofs into 3 ofs.
