Selvala Seldrazi

This build is heavily influenced by the Brostorm list but with an added eldrazi twist. Animar, Soul of Elements can suck it because this crazy chick is able to cast any creature in this deck by turn 3 and that's a promise.

T1: Forest, Arbor Elf/Birds of Paradise/Elvish Mystic/Fyndhorn Elves/Llanowar Elves/Sol Ring/Utopia Sprawl/Wild Growth

T2: Land, Selvala, Heart of the Wilds

T3: At this point you can cast Emrakul, the Promised End if you have a Phyrexian Dreadnought in hand and you wouldnt even need to play a third land.

Sure that's the nut draw but the deck offers plenty of low cmc high power creatures to abuse with selvala. Any of the following can be played on turn 3, but prefer you play that third land to really take off: Lupine Prototype/Phyrexian Soulgorger/Ravaging Riftwurm/Rhonas the Indomitable/Sheltering Ancient/ and even sometimes Nylea, God of the Hunt.

Berserk/Invigorate/Might of Old Krosa/Phytoburst can be used for a quick pump and huge mana bursts, and untap abilities like Benefactor's Draught (which I'm considering cutting for Nature's Chosen) /Instill Energy/Wirewood Lodge/Paradox Engine

Naturally we want to keep the engine rolling and selvala's draw ability is rather inconsistent so we need to have some nice draw to keep up with longer games. We will forfeit "nice" draw with "explosive" draw. Save for Sylvan Library, Garruk, Primal Hunter/Greater Good/Life's Legacy/Momentous Fall/Rishkar's Expertise/Soul's Majesty/Kozilek, the Great Distortion/Kozilek, Butcher of Truth all fit the criteria and generate huge advantage for us.

Plenty of removal, a little recursion and some disruption, tutors of course. The combos are pretty clear cut and dry but do the job. Selvala, Heart of the Wilds+Temur Sabertooth can combo with Great Oak Guardian and Paradox Engine.

Selvala, Heart of the Wilds gets infinite mana with Umbral Mantle which you can sink if necessary for stampede effects like Kamahl, Fist of Krosa/Nylea, God of the Hunt/Rhonas the Indomitable or just go infinite mana, draw, and cast your whole deck with Staff of Domination. She only need make 6 mana for this combo to work.

That's pretty much it. Any feedback appreciated, enjoy!!
