I understand the example of Emrakul's Evangel, but the one potential issue I see there is the use of "other non-Eldrazi creatures" grouping the Evangel in with the set of creatures sacrificed to pay the cost, which is why it's included in the count. I'm at the point now where I'm not totally convinced by either argument, yours or mine.

Initially I was unsure but over time I've become increasingly convinced that it counts itself.

Emrakul's Evangel has the following oracle text: Sacrifice this creature and any number of other non-Eldrazi creatures: Create a 3/2 colorless Eldrazi Horror creature token for each creature sacrificed this way.

This one counts itself through virtually the same words, because it also happens to be a creature. The "this creature" on Emrakul's Evangel and "this artifact" on the Sword of the Ages replace using names because names were unclear to some players when clones or copying was involved, but the words always mean "this thing" even if it's no longer an artifact or creature at all, and exists solely to be self referential. So I can't see how if a card functionality reads "sacrifice this permanent and any number of creatures" wouldn't count itself as long as it's a creature given that other cards work this way

BlueTorche on !!! Chatterfang and the hungry Crew !!!

Very good deck with the new Bloomsborrow cards. I also made a deck (less expensive haha) of Chatterfang, and I would suggest you to add Spawning Pit which is really strong with drain card like Bastion of Remembrance, Zulaport Cutthroat and Blood Artist (which are the main wincon in my deck).

I would also add that the deck needs his commander, and you should add some creature protection. You already have some, but I would suggest Malakir Rebirth  ^Flip, Fake Your Own Death, Golgari Charm or Lightning Greaves. You may also add Crop Rotation that can tutor Swarmyard (and Yavimaya, Cradle of Growth which make your Chatterfang, Squirrel General unblockable thanks to Forestwalk).

As good token generator (but not in the tribal theme), you can look at Creakwood Liege (which buff your creatures in addition to create token), Emrakul's Evangel (similar to Nested Shambler), Growth Spasm (correct ramp but will create you a token), Khalni Garden (land that create a token !) or Tireless Provisioner (which I personally don't play, but you have some food synergies in the deck).

I don't know if you have played your deck yet (as BLB card are not released yet), but I think your deck has a bit lack of ramp/land (I may be wrong, as you have some good mana dorks and treasure creation).

I hope you'll have fun playing this deck, good luck !

How about Emrakul's Evangel? You still get the dead token triggers,and instead of wiping your board, you get a bunch of big baddies to swing/defend with.

Scurry Oak and Ivy Lane Denizen can produce infinite squirrels.

Panharmonicon to duplicate your etbs?

While havin Chatterfang out, Emrakul's Evangel is a nice token duplicator.

If your playgroup allows silver boarded cards Earl of Squirrel is a fine addition.

Have you considered any combination of Emrakul's Evangel, Hornet Nest, Stolen by the Fae and Sylvan Offering? All of these cards can create multiple instances of creature tokens at once. Happy Hunting!

Yedora is so cool. Thoughts on these? Living Lands, Blasting Station, Nantuko Vigilante, Emrakul's Evangel, Desecrated Tomb, Lotus Cobra, Beast Whisperer, Slate of Ancestry, Nissa, Who Shakes the World, Vernal Bloom, Nissa, Vital Force
