Here's a deck I've been working on that uses a traverse the ulvenwald engine combined with evolutionary leap to put together the devoted druid/vizier of remedies combo. Evolutionary leap is also a way to spend infinite mana once you have it, by cycling through your deck for walking ballista. The deck has a lot of cute synergies like sacrificing tidehollow sculler with evolutionary leap to exile their card permanently and get another creature, or pumping all of your hangarback walker tokens with gavony township. My main worries G1 are burn, big mana, and chalice of the void, and the sideboard reflects that. I've also considered going straight GW and replacing the scullers with kitchen finks; this would improve the burn matchup and make the evolutionary leap chains close to 100% reliable but hurt the matchup against storm and modern's various weird unfair decks. I've also thought about Nissa, Voice of Zendikar somewhere in the 75; the tokens are good with evolutionary leap and the counters are good with the X creatures, but I think it doesn't do anything the deck isn't already good at and it's kind of a dorky low-power card.

I don't have a list, but it feels like there has to be some kind of aristocraty Black (maybe green with the new flip enchantment) deck.

Someone on reddit cooked up a deck along those lines and there's a lot of discussion there.

You know what makes lots of poo poo for Path of Mettle?

Oketra's Monument.

Maybe there's a deck with oketra's monument and radiant destiny naming warriors.
