Deck Description

This deck is still in construction!

By adding more Samut, Vizier of Naktatum, Rabbit Battery becomes more powerful.
Rabbit Battery has/gives haste, so more triggers of Samut, Vizier of Naktatum.
Also by adding Goldhound it can be in play turn 2 more often.

If I add an Ornithopter, Ancient Imperiosaur and Reckless Bushwhacker become more playable.

You See a Pair of Goblins has the potential of creating more creatures.
Or when enough creatures can attack, it can give an one time boost.
If the boost is relevant then Atarka's Command can be n option.

Overall the list is almost as I want it but still need a lot of play testing.
4 Bomat Courier is maybe to much, but time will tell after play testing
If you have any ideas, it's much appreciated to place your thoughts in the comments below.

By adding more Mountains, you can drop the price of the deck.
You don't have a lot of green cards.

How to Play

Trying to win on turn 3/4 (but all in, all the time).
Turn 2 is possible.

In short it is trying to storm to win a fast game.
Key cards to storm for an Ancient Imperiosaur:
Voldaren Epicure, Burning-Tree Emissary(s) and Gleeful Demolition.
Then give it haste with ether Torch Courier or Rabbit Battery to win the game.

Because it's mostly a creature deck for cheap mana, there is an other line to explore.
Basically go wide and fast to finish with either Reckless Bushwhacker or You See a Pair of Goblins.
You See a Pair of Goblins isn't an auto-includ (yet).

Of course you won't have a "I win the game" each turn 3/4.
Samut, Vizier of Naktamun is what I think the best card to include for longer games.
This helps you to draw extra cards when necessary, and it puts you back in the game after a board wipe.
