This is a combo deck that wins by using Presence of Gond in conjunction with Midnight Guard to create infinite elf tokens. The combo isn't anything that hasn't been done before, but most decks that use these cards are G/W token builds where this interaction is secondary and there is little if any protection for the combo. Given the fact that part of our win condition is an aura, which the pauper cardpool supports with cards like Heliod's Pilgrim and Commune with the Gods, I thought it would be useful to double down and also use enchantments as a source of ramp Utopia Sprawl, fixing/draw Abundant Growth and removal Journey to Nowhere. This is still fairly early, so what I'm mostly looking for is

-Alternative win-conditions, since I'm not super attached to Aura Gnarlid as the backup to my combo

-What color or colors I should be splashing beyond G/W, since I like Black for its discard effects that could protect my combo, Blue for drawing and filtering into combo pieces and Red for cards like Impact Tremors and Burst of Speed which get around the requirement of my combo needing to survive a turn of disruption. (If possible make suggestions that aren't Blue since I already play too much of that color lol)

Explanations for some cards in this current edition

-Essence Warden to survive aggro decks and make sure games go long enough to land the combo

-Impact Tremors to beat decks that make it hard to win with combat damage (i.e. Turbo Fog and Mono-Black Control)

-Vines of Vastwood to protect Midnight Guard and incidentally prevent decks like Izzet Blitz from targeting its own creatures
