My goal here is to get pressure on the battlefield early (Greenbelt Rampager, Narnam Renegade, Ajani's Comrade) and pump those low cost creatures (Winding Constrictor+Durable Handicraft, Oath of Ajani) to keep pressuring the battlefield until I can drop cards like Ridgescale Tusker for a pump before swinging huge with Cultivator of Blades (plus all of my other creatures) or Aetherwind Basker.

Things I need help with in this Standard deck: Identifying cards that can easily be removed and won't harm the deck, adding in protection from removal or enchantment removal (most likely a sideboard thing), identifying trouble spots. Possibly swinging the deck from tri-color to dual-color... but I am not sure I want to do so, unless we can keep the over-all theme.

And, if you like the idea, please give me a +1.

Edit

I decided to take out Narnam Renegade and add in 4x Armorcraft Judge. This is due to the fact that Greenbelt Rampager is already a beefy 3/4 on turn two and it smooths out my mana curve a bit.

For ramp, I have added Cryptolith Rite and Rishkar, Peema Renegade. I honestly forgot to try adding Druid of the Cowl, but would like to playtest this before editing further.

I've reduced some spells to 2-of. I'd prefer 3-of or even 4-of... but I only have so much room.
