I can't deal with how bad RDW is right now. It seems to get crushed by everything :(

Thorn

They started hating on RDW ever since {Kor Firewalker} got printed and they disn't reprint {Lightning Bolt}

Birds or arbor elf since you want a dork t1. And I think yøū have more than enough removal with revenge and prey upon, tracker is too slow.

I like {champion of lamboldt} at the 3 slot vs ooze but it's preference really. I played with 4 silverhearts in mine and it worked out well.

No acidic slime? Why not?

Ooze smashes people so hard... I don't think I could drop him. I'll try without the trackers tho.

Cause I am trying to smash their face, not their artifacts and crap

And a 2/2 with death touch that destroys there lands and stuff works great to smash their face too.

GoJuDragon

Except a 2/2 for {3}{G}{G} isnt efficient enuf for this fast deck

Willthomjr

Acidic slime is used for defense more than anything. Like in wolf ramp run, it prevents opponent from always attacking with primetime. I'd say, if you're running green suns zenith, I'd run 1.

Willthomjr

Only thing that I could offer,

I'd say try the Green Sun's Zenith.....even if you can only play with it for a couple months.  Once this deck loses tempo...IE late game it just stinks.  The chance to play a creature, literally any creature is awesome.  If you do run Green Suns (3) I'd play with one slime for artifact removal. It makes you a little more balanced against a variety of opponents is my logic.

Also....Birds of paradise over Arbor elf.  Silverheart / Revenge of the hunted on Birds is a much better play since he's got flying.

-4 Arbor Elf
-4 Predator Ooze

+ 4 Birds of Paradise
+3 Green Sun's Zenith
+1 Acidic Slime

At least try it out and let me know what you think.

{predator ooze} smashes people so hard though!
It also works especially well with {Prey Upon}

Guypocolypse

Have you tryed {Craterhoof Behemouth}?

Guitello

RDW isnt bad right now... RDW and GR Agro are te strongest decks at the moment... {thunder maw Hellkite} {bonfire of the damned} {hellrider} {krenko, mob boss}

Bcstang

I played against a deck similar to this with 4 {sheltering word} and it was very effective. I would say try -1 {predator ooze -1 {strangle root Geist} and -1 {increasing savagery}. It's so good. Think about it, if silver heart is paired and someone tries to remove him it's 2 mana to hex proof AND gain 8 life!

Hunteroffire9

Yeah predator Liz is great

Fishsticks123

I think you should take out birds as t can't attack here wihout Rancor  and Llanowar Elves would be better for that reason.

Almosteric

I think the birds are a must. Just due to {revenge of the haunted}   Nothing beats a bop turning into a massive two turn clock flyer.
On the topic of mana dorks. How's {arbor elf} working for you? 
maybe {bond beetle} in replace to start swinging faster.
