I accidentally made this deck when i tried to ramp into monstrous ember swallower. I kept adding things and it kept getting better, to the point where when I was playtesting it was a little horrifying. Try it out if you don't believe me.fatties all day. With a god hand, a monstrous ember swallower can be done on turn 3, but 4 or 5 is more realistic. Xenagos is an all star and quite often is a burning tree planeswalker (he generates the mana you use to cast him). This deck can get crazy, but without the gas to do that it seeks to dominate the midrange. The devotion from burning tree emissary, ember swallower, and the hammer is important to ramp with.update: it appears that this deck plays a part in standard via monstrous gruul. This deck is a gruul more focused on land destruction
This deck is actually really difficult to play well. Although it can always just smash with big creatures, the harder and more rewarding way to play is to ramp into land destruction and leave your opponent with no way to respond promptly to your fatties/ planeswalker. It can routinely ramp into about 8 mana on turn 4 and probably more like 11 on turn 5. This is when your ember swallower goes off and when most of your hand has been dumped onto the table. Besides the difficulty of figuring out how far you can ramp and the best way to do so and get the correct mana, it is also hard sometimes to know what to play. Maybe you could slap an ember swallower and a hammer down in the same turn, but it actually might be better to just hit them for a lot of damage with the hydra or throw down some immediate land destruction like sylvan primordial or frenzied tilling. To be honest, I've been playing with this deck since I accidentally created it (about 4 days ago) and I still have a lot of trouble assessing the best thing to throw down. If you want to play this deck, I would suggest playing it a lot. And if you do, please give me suggestions! I'd love to know how to make this deck even more disgusting.This deck, by it's nature, has a lot of trouble against supreme verdict. In order to deal with that, i've increased the frenzied tillings to a playset. I suggest you never let the control player get to the correct 4 mana. Ever. The sideboard is also so you can retrofit the deck into jund for discard and deathrite shaman.

Your deck is a really solid R/G Monstrous Build, and I like it. But to be clear, it's not that similar. My deck is explicitly focused on land destruction, yours is stompy. However I do like your deck. If you wanted to, the best thing I can suggest to add to your deck would be Domri Rade, even in place of Xenagos the Planeswalker.He's expensive though
Thanks for looking it over
