The idea is to get one huge turn, with Paradox Engine and Cryptolith Rites mana and Rishkar. Drawing cards with Soul of the Harvest until I hit a Bushwhacker to give the team haste and swing for lethal.
Any comments, feedback or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I'm in the process of putting all the pieces together, but for now I wanted to post this up and get some feedback.
Unfortunately Soul of the Harvest is not legal in standard. If you are willing to add blue you can use Quicksmith Spy though. Ew very time you cast a spell paradox engine untaps and you can tap it to draw a card.
My app says Soul of the Harvest is standard legal. It must be in a preconstructed deck somewhere.
Why use Reckless Bushwhacker? Adding red for 1 card seems unnecessary when there are plenty of overrun and haste effects in standard already. Since you're already generating so much mana, I'd use Decimator of the Provinces. That's one fun pig! (and you don't have to add a 2nd color)
Soul of the Harvest is indeed standard legal thanks to the 'Welcome Decks' you get with the Deck Builder's Toolkit. It's Wotc's way of keeping several Iconic cards like Nightmare and Shivan Dragon legal in Standard. I considered Decimator, but it only has haste. It doesn't grant haste. Bushwhacker is the best way to grant haste to my entire team besides Chasm Guide. The Guide is too Ally dependant, though I am starting to reconsider building this deck as tribal elves, since these elves don't really have near enough synergy to warrent building a tribal deck. Maybe I should reconsider what the best creatures in R/G are and build the deck around them.

I don't always play Jank, but when I do, I play Saffronolive.
Made some changes to the list in the OP. Basically I dropped Sylvan Advocate for Greenbelt Rampager, and got rid of Eldritch Evolution and 1 Nissa for Walking Ballista. Rampager can trigger Revolt twice before it hits, and Ballista is an all around utility player and an alternate win-con if I draw one when I'm going off. I also added a singleton Burn from Within as another win-con.
4 Narnam Renegade
4 Druid of the Cowl
4 Greenbelt Rampager
4 Greenwheel Liberator
3 Reckless Bushwhacker
4 Rishkar, Peema Renegade
4 Soul of the Harvest
3 Walking Ballista
1 Nissa, Voice of Zendikar
1 Burn From Within
4 Cryptolith Rite
4 Paradox Engine
Lands:
4 Cinder Glade
4 Game Trail
10 Forest
1 Mountain
1 Evolving Wilds
