This is an idea that just poped in my head the other day, using token producing monster Garruk and the previewed(on mtgsalvation) Moringtide card
Bitterblossom (:1: :b: Tribal Enchantment-Faerie At the beginning of your upkeep you lose 1 life and put a 1/1 black faerie rogue creature with flying in play).
The basic skeleton.
Lands 20
4 Bayou
3 Windswept Heath
3 Bloodstained Mire
6 Forest
4 Swamps
Creatures 18
4 Birds of Paradise
3 Ravenous Baloth
4 Tarmogoyf
4 Dark Confidant
3 Eternal Witness
Other 22
3 Garruk Wildspeaker
4 Bitterblossom
3 Thoughtseize
4 Cabal Therapy
2 Pernicious Deed (not sure about this, probably will change)
4 Smother
2 Sword of Fire and Ice
Card choices:
Ravenous Baloth- Good body plus free life gain with Garruk out.
Tarmogoyf- Yeah he can get big here since I play a Planeswalker and a Tribal spell.
Eternal Witness-Recursion is good.
Garruk Wildspeaker-Card advantage engine allowing me to keep lands in hand if I need to, free 3/3 during my turn, gives my guys power boost plus trample.
Bitterblossm-Smaller card advantage giving me free, uncounterable flying creatures (except for Stifle, booo).
Sword of Fire and Ice-I chose this over Jitte because it gives a boost immediatly and gives reach (burn) and card draw.
Srategy:
The main strategy in the deck is drop Bitterblossom, get free creatures and overrun with Garruk. E. Witness Garruk and repeat as needed. Tarmogoyf is in for defense and a very solid alt. win-con, he is going to get bigger in here than most Legacy decks since most don't bother running Planeswalkers or Tribal.
