I'd play a couple mana dorks like  {Arbor Elf} just to speed it up. I play a Gruul Aggro deck too if you want to check it out but I play a  {Wild Beastmaster} Bloodrush win con and it's very fast

Instead of  {Predator's Rapport} you can put in  {Volcanic Strength} for the mirror matches.  {Stromkirk Noble} enchanted becomes a very fast racer.

If I bloodrush  {Wild Beastmaster} after the declare blockers stage, do my other attacking creatures gain the +x/+x because damage hasn't been assigned yet?

No it would need to be done before the "whenever wild beast master attacks" trigger goes off. As that's when it's checking and making the adjustments.

Also in the rulings for the card, it mentions that it checks the last known state for wild beast master and then applies it. So be cautious of the morbid {tragic slip} as it will most likely board wipe you with -13/-13 to each creature!

Yeah that little combo is scaring me away from  {Wild Beastmaster} a little bit :0

Ya I've played Beastmaster for quite a bit now and I've heard of the combo but never saw it also if you Bloodrush Beastmaster as soon as you declare attackers then all your creatures get the boost which is handy
