Welcome to my snake and shaman tribal deck!

This deck uses its creatures to generate huge amounts of mana very fast:
Gaea's Cradle or a flipped Growing Rites of Itlimoc   will ramp you hard and they spin out of control quickly with a Deserted Temple or Saryth, the Viper's Fang to untap them.
Cryptolith Rite together with a bunch of creatures or Sachi, Daughter of Seshiro combined with a few of the shaman creatures in this deck usually generate a ton of extra mana for you, too.

More than just a few mana sinks in the deck make sure you will always be able to make good use of all your mana:
Chameleon Colossus + Rogue's Passage or Chameleon Colossus + Rhonas the Indomitable can easily one-shot a single opponent with enough mana.
If the sky is clear Steel Hellkite can fly into the red zone for big amounts of damage. Or it can just kill annoying permanents no matter of their cmc.
Staff of Domination and huge amounts of mana opens up so many different possibilities.
Flood the deck with tokens with Snake Basket and then cast your commander to make them all bigger and for drawing lots of cards when you attack with them. Use Kamahl, Fist of Krosa, Finale of Devastation or Tribal Unity to get your tokens even more over the top!
It's not uncommon to have 20/20 or a 30/30 Stonecoil Serpent or Hooded Hydra in this deck.
If you're the player with the most life then simply kill the whole rest of the table at instant speed with a Squall Line.
There are countless possibilities to kill your opponents or at least to put some real pressure onto them...

And all the while keep on drawing deeper and deeper into your deck with Seshiro the Anointed's ability and all the other card draw the deck features, like Shamanic Revelation, Harmonize, Lifecrafter's Bestiary, Regal Force, and so on.
Try to find Wrap in Vigor, Heroic Intervention or Steely Resolve to be able to protect your board against your opponent's removal spells.

Of course a snake tribal deck like this has a flavorful poison kill as another wincon. That's why Triumph of the Hordes and Fynn, the Fangbearer are in the deck for. Since Saryth, the Viper's Fang and Ohran Frostfang can give deathtouch to all my attacking creatures it is a real possibility to surprise kill one or more of your opponents when you play a well timed Chord of Calling into Fynn, the Fangbearer at instant speed during one of your attacks.
