My take on the gruul aggro concept. Thoughts?
Looks good but with such a creature heavy deck add at least 2 {Domri Rade}s it's amazing to have him out also maybe mana dorks like {Arbor Elf} just to get that Heleider out there faster
I'd say drop all four {Legion Loyalist}s for 2 {Ghor-Clan Rampager} and 2 {Domri Rade}
IMO, {Legion Loyalist} just doesn't do enough. He's the card that wants to be good, but just doesn't.
Ya that's true but he's a good 1 drop and with aggro playing on turn one is sick but I think I'd only play 2 {Legion Loyalist} and then and 2 {Domri Rade}
Or take out the 2 Loyalists and put in two {Arbor Elf} just to speed stuff up
I want to say finish out the playsets of {Ghor-Clan Rampager} and {Rakdos Cackler}
Ya {Ghor-Clan Rampager} is amazing!!
No need for mana dorks. This is aggro (low cost/ efficient beaters). I play gruul and am very successful with {Searing Spear} as a 4 of in the main deck. Also, {Flames of the Firebrand} KILLS in the mirror match, or any aggro match up for that matter. I have 3 in the sideboard. {Ghor-Clan Rampager} is a must have 4 of. It is played as a combat trick 90% of the time but can come in handy as a good size body.
When it comes to {Domri Rade}, he is sweet, but not right for aggro. More for a midrange list. I love him in my Naya Midrange list.
Good points but I feel that {Domri Rade} is good for aggro. Bc he will either give you more cards or kill one of their creatures leaving them vulnerable

Everything here hits the spot! Domri really should be strictly mid-range, in an aggro setting, you'll rarely see any use aside of his +1 or -2 abilities, which just aren't enough of a benefit to this play style. I say drop the loyalists (they are excellent SB against token decks though) for 2 {ghor clan rampager} and 2 {armed // dangerous}
In terms of Domri, I guess every aggro deck is different I rely on Bloodrush therefore Domri is essential whereas this deck has a different aggro win con
{Gruul War Chant} is perfect for this deck.
{Gruul War Chant} is an amazing card but costs way too much to cast but it could work
