Notes:
This is more a NAYA human aggro, but with the zoo play style. Creatures that do more then their CMC. Lots of synergy with BTE

Why not 4-of Burning Tree? That card is rediculous. Although I guess that statement in its entirety can be made about multiple cards in this list. I kinda like it actually.

What about {Mayor of Avabruck}? You could play him over Thalia and just move her to the sideboard. Just a thought.

That actually makes a lot more sense. I've updated the list a bit (not including SB) feel like the land isn't right tho. : / hitting WW or RR can be hard

I'm not sure what to do with it to be honest, without playtesting. From the looks of it I almost want to say that you don't need Basics, and just run Indy and Core Set duals in their place, although that may be a very hasty decision.

 {Boros Charm} over  {Giant Growth} maybe?

You can think about running {Rancor} over {Madcap Skills}. if someone removes the creature with Skills, it's gone. But Rancor keeps coming back.

Boros charm was in my first list, will consider playing with it a but, just seems more mana intensive while this deck likes to tap out almost all the time!

Don't get me wrong, I love rancor. I've just found with madcap and  {Firefist Striker} getting damage is pretty easy when the opponent can't block.

{Selesnya Charm} then maybe? It's still a very nice pump and the other perks are very good. I mean it's technically still a creature if you want it to be.
