Something fun I have been working on but it has turned out to hit and work very well so I was hoping to get some input to make it a FNM deck.

Huntmaster of the fells. You may not think you need him but he would work wonders in a deck like this.

Update deck for first FNM winging it :D , this is the sideboard I threw together at the last minute all the cards saw play but the {Ulvenwald Tracker}. So this is how I took the deck and pulled out a 6th place out of 32 players I feel it played very well but could still be better.

P.s still great fun to play!!   

P.p.s I do think {Huntmaster of the Fells} could work here I will have to play test it thanks for the suggestion :D

Deck updated post-tournament. So the deck is playing very well came in 1st in local part of the summer championship grinder, so I get free entery in to the finals and firsts round bye.

So as i have siad I am very happy with the way the deck is coming along I have play tested {Huntmaster of the Fells} and find him a little slow for this deck so he is out. I am also finding {Strangleroot Geist} to be slowing me down a bit so I might need to change him up for something else but not sure what.

Sideboard has also been updated.

Bump and updated with new play testing.

Here are the changes
-1 {Madcap Skills}
+1 {Strangleroot Geist}
-4 {Dryad Militant}
+4 {Mogg Flunkies}

And the sideboard keeps change right now it almost all burn cos there are a lot of aggro decks in my meta right now but I have the summer champions coming up so the sideboard need to become a little more well rounded

I love {Hellrider} the only bad thing I have had with him is that the mana base in this deck is more green cos of the 1 drops and in play testing when ever I had him in hand I never had the 2 red I needed.

but as I have said I am still twicking the deck and would love for {Hellrider} to find its way back in.

I find that there are 2 ways of running Gruul. Either main red with green as a bonus or main green with red as a bonus. I personally run the main red. You on the other hand are running main green. Where I have  {Ash Zealot} you have  {Strangleroot Geist}. Where I have  {Stromkirk Noble} you have  {Experiment One}. Where I have  {Hellrider} you have  {Deadbridge Goliath}. Run it like mono green aggro just let  {Ghor-Clan Rampager}, {Burning-Tree Emissary}, and  {Flinthoof Boar} be added bonuses.
