The idea of this deck is to control the board by outsmarting your opponent with value plays. The main priority is buffing yaks whether it is in-hand buffs or buffs on the board. This deck lacks early game so your mulligans are going to be for Eredon and Longhorned Yak. Deepwood Stalker is for removal purposes, and is especially powerful when combined with a high attack Yak.
Soulbound Sagami, Tethra, Oakling, Jester, and Eredon are solid ways of buffing your yaks. Mobility is present with Sagami Grovecaller and Syland Horsemaster. Feed the Forest works great with a lot of the creatures in the deck. There are Verduran Forces and the wildcard, Ruunin's Messenger, as finishers.
Why Ruunin's Messenger? Green has a lot of high quality creatures and events. A great way to take advantage of that is with Ruunin's Messenger. Ruunin's Messenger also poses a high threat. It forces you opponent to deal with the creature. Ruunin's Messenger is also a great card to buff, ensuring it doesn't get knocked too easily.
I cannot stress how good Deepwood stalker is in this deck. If Deepwood Stalker is buffed by the Longhorned Yak, it has incredible value. Court jesters and Oaklings also buff it substantially.
Another card that has high synergy and that is crucial to the deck is Eredon. He has synergy with basically every card in your deck. From buffing Deepwood Stalkers to Yaks to adding a final oomph at the end, this card does it all.
This deck is really crazy, and can have many good moments. It is also fairly solid. Knowing your percentages when it comes to Oaklings, Jesters, and Soulbounds can give you the upper hand in battle. I suggest you try the deck, not only because it is quite strong, but is enjoyable. And most of all, it has YAKS!
