Ach Hans, Beastmaster Run!

Modern Aggro Combo RG (Gruul) Tokens

Beastmaster's Ascension token ramp. Fun overkill!!!

How it works:

Depending on your opponent, you either want to a) get out Beastmaster Ascension ASAP and attack with tokens and creatures to charge it. Or b) wait until you have 7 or more creatures on the board, drop BA, and swing for 35+ damage. This is an Aggro deck. Beat em' up!!!

Sarkhan Vol gives my creatures Haste, allows me to steal threats, and can go ultimate for flying Dragon tokens.

Garruk Relentless   pumps out tokens, is a tutor, removal of pesky Weenies, and has Overrun as his ultimate.

Eldrazi Monument is a great anti board/removal card, gives my guys +1/+1, flying, and are indestructible. Alt win-con. Helps if you have Awakening Zone and/or Goblin Assault out.

Bloodbraid Elf is a 3/2 Haste AND fetches a free creature or enchantment for 4 CMC. Excellent. Too bad it's banned in Modern and was removed from the deck.

Huntmaster of the Fells   was put in his slot for the life and tokens. It's slower than BBE, but does have advantage when it hits the board and great potential if it flips.

Siege-Gang Commander is a great utility card, as he makes three 1/1 Goblins AND I can sac them to deal 2 damage to target creature or player. Bye-bye Insectile Abberation.

Nest Invader and Kozilek's Predator offer Eldrazi Spawn. Great for ramp and tokens to swing in combo with BA.

Primeval Titan. Duh. Can drop him turn 3-4 in this deck with Lotus Cobra out. Fetchland, BoP, BAM! He also fetches Inkmoth Nexus and Kessig Wolf Run, alt win-cons AND a pump for other creatures.

Dryad Arbor is a good free creature in a land slot.

Khalni Garden is a G mana source and gives me a Plant Token.

For the sideboard, Beast Within takes care of huge threats and Planeswalkers. Slagstorm for mass tokens, weenies, and what not. River Boa for anyone with an Island. Fresh Meat for boardsweeps. Creeping Corrosion for artifacts. Relic of Progenitus and Tormod's Crypt are there to rid the graveyard of that nasty Flashback card, Undying crap, and other stuff I don't like. Sylvok Lifestaff works well against Aggro mirrors. Especially on Eldrazi tokens or if I'm sacrificing tokens to Eldrazi Monument.

Considering adding in Surgical Extraction in the sideboard for Frites/Solar Flare, MeliraPod, and other crap I don't like in the graveyard.

I'm working on a Mono Green version:

deck-large: Dar, Son of Zed

Perhaps this deck is still viable after the banning of Bloodbraid Elf. I made a few changes, adding in Huntmaster of the Fells  Flip and Siege-Gang Commander. We shall see...
