This deck is not creative at all, it is a crowdsourced Ent deck using Treebeard as a hero.
My procedure was as follows -- I analyzed Entmoot decks with Treebeard to see what the most likely hero lineup would be. After settling on Treebeard/Pippin/Merry, I then looked at 13 decks using that lineup from different creators to see which cards were used the most, and what the median ally/attchment/event count was. You can see the raw information here along with a comparison to Treebeard the ally decks:

To turn that information into a deck, I then used the median count to apportion card slots to the most popular choices in each category, trying to use the most popular count for each until I ran out of space (I did lower the count at the end of the ally list so I could fit cards with same approximate selection). I also limited the cards to a single core set.
The end result should be a stereotypical Ent Deck -- one that only includes cards that others have used the most (by percentage, not raw count) in their own similar Ent decks. If you want the typical Ent experience, this may be a good fit -- and if it's not, don't blame me, blame the committee!
Strategy is to get the Ents out ASAP so that they can get un-exhausted and overwhelm the board. The Hobbits keep your starting threat low and Pippin can add some additional card draw, while the mighty Treebeard is capable of questing, defending, or attacking at high level. If you have Boomed and Trumpeted in hand you can ready him after he self-damages. Dagger of Westernesse and Fast Hitch goes on Merry, of course, and Self Preservation on Treebeard. Quickbeam is nice to see early because he came into play early, but setting up the combination of Derndingle Warrior and Wellinghall Preserver should cover your defensive needs.
