Deck Description

Lots of mana, infinite combo with titania+skyshroud+seedcradle. Fairly consistent turn 4 wins.
Tap titania for 4+, convert a green mana to white using skyshroud and use seedcradle's ability. Infinite mana, untap and power.

Emrakul in it for the fun of hard-casting Emrakul on turn 3, but deck would be better with just another forest (or ideally Gaea's Cradle). The same is probably true for Concordant Crossroads. If gives the deck the potential to go off on turn 2, but I'm guessing better consistency from more lands is better in most cases.

How to Play

Any hand with a forest, a mana elf and some combo pieces (Summoner's Pact and Green Sun's Zenith serves as substitutes) are good to keep.

Optimal draw (T2 win):
Needed: 2x forest, Llanowar Elves/Fyndhorn Elves, 2x Priest of Titania, Concordant Crossroads, Glimpse of Nature and finally a Wirewood Symbiote or a third Priest of Titania.

Turn 2 win with Symbiote:
T1: Forest + Llanowar Elves
T2: Forest + Priest of Titania + Concordant Crossroads
Tap Titania for 2, play titania #2. Tap for 3, play glimpse of Nature + Wirewood Symbiote - draw 1-drop elf and play it - draw a card.
Use Wirewood Symbiote ability to return Llanowar and untap Titania. Tap for 3, play the llanowar and draw a card.

Your now have 2 mana hanging, an untapped Llanowar, an untapped one-mana elf and 2 tapped priest of titanias, giving you a fair bit of leeway. You need to be able to play out a seedcradle witch and a skyshroud elf, and have 4 mana available.

If one of your two cards is a priest of titania, elvish archdruid or wirewood symbiote you have very good chances - you need to draw one of these fairly quickly. Llanowar elves and Fyndhorn elves are self sustaining and can keep you drawing for outs.

Any creature draw apart from the first llanowar can be replaced by a summoner's pact. Green sun's zenith (finding a 3rd priest of titania) will also often be enough to secure the infinite going off.
