My first deck, seems to do pretty well against my friends who have a lot more cards and are more experienced, looking for ways to improve it.

I usually get a Elvish Mystic, Voyaging Satyr or Whisperer of the Wilds in my draw, then build up large creatures such as Nessian Wilds Ravager and buff them with Xenagos, God of Revels, Temur Runemark and Temur Battle Rage. While I'm building this force I use Highland Game and Archers of Qarsi and instants (Mortal's Resolve, Winds of Qal Sisma, Lightning Strike) to kill other creatures and protect myself.

I'm looking at trading in more trample spells to get the big damage in and to prevent chump blocking (more Temur Runemark and Temur Battle Rage?), as well as another Xenagos, God of Revels and maybe Bow of Nylea.
