Standard Gruul deck that ramps so threats can be thrown onto the field quickly. Have creatures that apply pressure early and late, with decent versatility to situations, and monstrosity is a fun theme throughout.

Xenagos, the Reveler is perfect in this deck; ramp, creature creation, and late flooding galore.

Elvish Mystic , Sylvan Caryatid , and Courser of Kruphix are ramp first and early game deterrents second.

Fanatic of Xenagos , Nylea, God of the Hunt, and Polis Crusher keep the pain flowing.

Stormbreath Dragon, Arbor Colossus , and Genesis Hydra to end the game as is or monstrous.

Titan's Strength for cheap, fast damage boost or protection plus a scry. Lightning Strike for quick damage.

I appreciate any card or tactical suggestions to improve this deck!
