Deck Description

Sideboard= 'maybeboard'. The things I wanted to put in, but cut.

How to Play

Main theme is straightforward: Squirrels, tokens.

'The' combo: Chatterfang, Pitiless Plunderer, one squirrel, one black mana.

Side-quest: Yedora + any kind of animated forest lands= forests return to play on death ('undying lands' combo). (Beware summon-sick lands, or animating lands into a boardwipe. Nissa, Who Shakes the World ult can give you invincible lands)
-Bonus: bouncing a 'Yedora flipped forest-creature' with Sword of Hearth & Home will 'return them to life'

"Oops I won" (or 'deplete their removal' for experienced players):
-Stadium+Vorinclex
-Altar of the Brood + any creature loop (beware Lab Maniac, Jace, Thassa's Oracle)
-Fynn + Bow of Nylea or Fynn + Saryth, the Viper's Fang= basically infect

Remember:
-Vorinclex doubles the starting loyalty of your Walkers
-Chatterfang has Forestwalk. With Yavimaya, Cradle of Growth or Song of the Dryads gifting a forest to opponents, give that buddy a sword and enjoy

Sideboard:
-Includes things that I'd wished would fit, but were ultimately cut because they were too far down the lines of play/ were unlikely. Sarulf after pulling off Yedora Side-quest would be hilarious.

Depending on the group, I'd totally put in Revel, maybe take out Parallel Lives. Parallel Lives is one of those, "Are we doing good? Yeah? Do we really need to do 'MORE GOOD'?" (double infinite loop is no better than plain infinite loop)

It can be hard to reconcile taking out seemingly powerful cards, but when you evaluate that they don't actually do anything on their own when they hit the board...

If I were putting Revel In Riches, I'd also be looking for a few more ways to either create treasure at instant speed, or to kill opponent creatures at instant speed. In Commander, I feel like not enough people evaluate how to stay off the radar until you win (IE, don't create those win-con treasures until right before your turn starts)

Side note on Revel in Riches:
Valentin, Dean of the Vein works against you, since he exiles opponents dying creatures. No dies triggers means Revel gives no treasures, and Blood Artist would not trigger either.

I also don't really like most squirrel decks, I love vampire, elemental and goblin decks, I only play casual decks though
