Add graveyard recursion for more redundancy. (Likely reduce elf tribal more for this)

Revive, Noxious Revival, Eternal Witness, Timeless Witness

Then adding ramp through big value, dorks and instants is probably needed as well

Crop Rotation, Scapeshift, Lotus Cobra, Ashaya, Soul of the Wild, Ancient Greenwarden

Ooh! I like it! I have a couple of suggestions for the deck that I think would help make it a little bit quicker.

• More land. I usually go for 37-40 in the average casual commander deck, but with Tatyova I'd personally go for at least 45.

• Rampant Growth and Sakura-Tribe Elder are great cheap ramp cards.

• Voracious Hydra is better than Arbor Colossus and allows better utilization of large amounts of land.

• Terramorphic Expanse is another Evolving Wilds for your juicy landfall triggers.

• On that note, Avenger of Zendikar and Lotus Cobra.

Hope this helps! Have fun!

Kayzee007 it potentially gets me an extra landfall trigger from Lotus Cobra and gives me an extra way to shuffle my library if I don't like that I see from Sylvan Library. Plus it matches my other expedition fetchlands, so it's a bit of a vanity thing as well.

Do ya like loops? Retreat to Coralhelm/Tideforce Elemental(+Lotus Cobra), any card like Walking Atlas and any bounce land (like Gruul Turf) go infinite.

After that it's pretty much just finding what landfall triggers you really want to abuse. Want to mill your opponents with Ruin Crab? Want to take all the things with Roil Elemental? Wanna go wide with Scute Swarm? The options are only limited by the variations of the mechanic.

In:

Sakura-Tribe Elder, Tireless Provisioner, Shanna, Sisay's Legacy, Yasharn, Implacable Earth, Abundant Harvest, Gilded Goose, Lotus Cobra, Scale Up.

Out:

Jiang Yanggu, Wildcrafter, Armorcraft Judge, Resplendent Marshal, Kyler, Sigardian Emissary, Vorinclex, Monstrous Raider, Enduring Scalelord, Hamza, Guardian of Arashin, Sigarda's Summons.

The +1/+1 counter theme mixed with the token theme looks good on paper but I think it's bad in practice. Although I haven't played this against people yet, doing shuffle and hand tests felt clunky and some cards wouldn't have much value when it came time to play them. So I took much of the +1/+1 counter theme out and replaced it with ramp (or cards that draw me lands) and a few threatening cards that are just cheaper but possibly better.

BA-3394 Thanks for your upvote and comment! Both cards you mentioned are excellent additions, and I'd highly recommend you get Lotus Cobra in there if you haven't already. Any game that gets the mana snake out early definitely will not play slow.

rwn1971 I'm still trying to stick to one of each creature type, so the fact that Scavenging Ooze and Prowling Serpopard share types with Lotus Cobra, Temur Sabertooth, and Acidic Slime means they're off the table for me, but they're all fantastic cards for sure. I've only made two swaps recently, cutting a basic forest for Boseiju, Who Endures, and finally cutting Junk Winder for the awesome New Capenna card Shield Broker. I'm keeping my Ruin Crab for now, as it distracts and draws the hate away from my commander. I'm also keeping Deadwood Treefolk around. It's true that it's sometimes a dead card, but when its good its VERY good, and as the only piece of recursion, it's staying for now. The next card on my radar for a potential cut is Alchemist's Refuge because i don't think I've ever used it's ability in a game. This list is mana hungry, so while this card is good in theory (especially with Pathbreaker Ibex, which I'm still running), it hasn't done anything for me in games so far. I'm also keeping Primordial Sage, despite how tempting those Spirit Dragons are... I might change it up later, but the sage has saved me a few times now.
