Neotrup on Yarok, the Desecrated + doubling …

Doubling Season , Rings of Brighthearth , Yarok, the Desecrated , and Strionic Resonator don't really interact with eachother. The only interactions are between Rings of Brighthearth and Strionic Resonator .

If have a triggered ability, you can activate Strionic Resonator to copy it, which will trigger Rings of Brighthearth , letting you pay to copy it twice instead of to copy it once.

If you activate an ability, Rings of Brighthearth will trigger and Strionic Resonator can be activated targeting it's trigger. This interaction allows you to pay to copy an activated ability twice instead of to copy it once. Since I already mentioned Rings can copy the activation, you can also pay to copy it thrice.


Since these cards do interact with other pieces, I'm going to address the main cases of permanents entering with Doubling Season .

If you have something like Ambassador Oak enter the battlefield, Yarok can make it trigger twice, giving you two 1/1 elves. Strionic Resonator can be activated to copy the trigger to give you an additional elf. Doubling Season will double all elves created, regardless of how many triggers you have. Rings of Brighthearth doesn't trigger here except for it's interaction with Strionic Resonator .

Another guess would be if you want to play something with counters, like Scrounging Bandar . Doubling Season will double the counters it enters with. Yarok has no interaction because there's no triggered ability (triggered abilities start with when, whenever, or at). Similarly Strionic Resonator cannot be used. Rings of Brighthearth also doesn't do anything.

If you have a copy of Grizzly Bears resolve (due to Reflections of Littjara having chosen Bear) it enters as a token. This is not creating a token so it has no interaction with Doubling Season . It doesn't trigger anything when it enters, so Yarok does not interact. You can target the cast trigger from Reflections of Littjara with Strionic Resonator to create a second copy of the spell though, so you end up with two token Grizzly Bears in addition to the nontoken one. Rings of Brighthearth has no additional functionality beyond it's interaction with Strionic Resonator .

If you're looking for another tribe to play with elves that has synergy with them, I would say go with treefolk.

Not only does going with that tribe open you up to black and to green which give you access to move elves, but they do work together.

A few examples I could find: Sylvan Offering , Ambassador Oak , and Elvish Branchbender

For now remove Ambassador Oak, Pharika, God of Affliction, Quirion Explorer, Taurean Mauler, Kirtar's Wrath

Add something like these cards since it seems you're going more into a warrior theme

Radha, Heir to Keld, Samut, Voice of Dissent, Kresh the Bloodbraided, Boldwyr Intimidator Aggravated Assault, Warstorm Surge, Burgeoning, Exploration, Hero of Bladehold, Brimaz, King of Oreskos

You're going to need some more ramp in this deck I suggest adding the signets and Sol Ring to speed up your army

I would also use more forests, barely any cards are using black mana. You can use the graph to find a better balance.

A couple thoughts: Bramblewood Paragon seems better to me than Chief of the Scale and Chief of the Edge. I'd consider Winnower Patrol as well, and for that matter Ambassador Oak can be a great way to take advantage of buffs since it produces two warriors and thus also two bodies which receive either the +1/+0 and +0/+1 bonuses conveyed by the chiefs or one counter each from the paragon. Obsidian Battle-Axe is also pretty nasty; gets a really great rhythm going.

Your mana base probably does need a little fixing, but consider also that you can make cards easier to cast by choosing ones with fewer colored symbols in their costs. Replacing Murder with Smother could prove useful in this regard. I also think the proportion of pain lands in this deck is going to prove fatal in some games; you've got eight right now, that's more than a third of your land count. I think you'll need to lose one, two, or maybe all three copies of City of Brass if you don't want to do substantial damage to yourself by tapping lands, given that you've already got several other colored pain lands in the mix. Consider shadow or battle lands; the exact proportions by color and by type depend on whether you take any of the above suggestions into account, but I've got some thoughts either way. I assume your avoiding fetch lands for the sake of the budget?
