Deck discussion for gruul aggro

you have 8 drops and only 22 lands and 4 mana dorks. Mana dorks are usually to get to big mana things faster rather than using them in place of lands. This should be a 24-25 land deck. If you want to stall the game then why are you playing aggressive creatures? If this is casual then you might drop the 8 drops, but if you take this to FNM it's not going to work.

I want to give constructive criticism but this whole deck needs work from a basic structural stand point.
You have one 3 drop, nine 2 drops and twelve 4 drops, where'd all the 3 drops go? You need to have a game plan with your mana, you need to think, turn one mana dork, turn two 3 drop and so on and so on. You want to make your mana curve nice and evenly but it's all over the place at the moment.

keep your mana curve nice and curvy, you need more 3 drops, there's a massive gap there. At the moment it's all up and down. and go up to 25 land.

Heres a questions though, are you aggro or mid-range cause i can't even see what you're deciding to do? I'm guessing you're aggro due to the title, but it really looks like your doing mid range. I'll quickly whip up a gruel mid-range and a gruel aggro to show you the difference between aggro and mid range so you can see how it works.
Just give me a day or two and i'll get back to you.

I've done the mid-range. Have a read of the description so you can see what i mean.
Once i do the aggro as well it'll be easy for you to compare the difference but for now there are some pretty useful tips that i learned over the years from some really good deck builders.

And there's the Gruul Aggro. You, don't have to agree with my choice of cards, but pay close attention to the mana costs.
