Blood Pressure: A New Breed of Aggro

The objective of this deck is to constantly pump out aggressive creatures. If you run out of gas, refuel with Winding Way which will draw you 2-4 threats on average and fuel your graveyard. If your creatures get killed, bring them back with Unearth. If you need a creature killed, Grist, the Hunger Tide has you covered. Bloodbraid Elf is your Collected Company, essentially, and can be even stronger depending on what you hit. Bloodbraid Elf + Winding Way is some serious value. Swing, die, reload, repeat.

Creatures

Ragavan, Nimble Pilferer is amazing. Need I say more? Can be swapped for Ignoble Hierarch if you want a mana dork instead and want to save some $$$.

Strangleroot Geist is a hard to deal with, aggressive creature than can be sacked and made bigger with Grist, the Hunger Tide.

Tarmogoyf is just way too much value for 2 mana not to run. Fat ass for cheap.

Lightning Skelemental is already a powerhouse. Throw in Unearth and that is devastating. If he survives the attack phase you can sack it to Grist, the Hunger Tide's -2 for extra value before the beginning of the end step.

Jadelight Ranger filters your draws while growing bigger, fuels your graveyard and Unearth.

Anzrag, the Quake-Mole is the newest wildcard addition. An absolute bomb if it stays alive. Can be swapped for any other one of or a 4th Jadelight Ranger.

Grist, the Hunger Tide is your removal on a stick. Mill to feed Tarmogoyf or to bring a 3 drop back with Unearth. Hittable with Lead the Stampede and Unearth.

Bloodbraid Elf lets you roll the dice on the value train while also bringing extra pressure. The creature version of Collected Company. Bloodbraid Elf into a Winding Way for tons of value.

Sorceries

Unearth lets you bring back any creature except for Bloodbraid Elf.

Winding Way will draw you 2-4 threats on average and fuel your graveyard.

Lightning Bolt helps with early game removal and any extra reach you may need.

This deck has been my baby for years now. Slowly evolving over time. Any and all suggestions are very helpful.
