This deck revolves around being as quick as humanly possible while keeping your own creatures Hexproof. The two creatures that stay truest to this principle are Witchstalker and Gladecover Scout. By pumping them up with Enchantments, it's not uncommon for this deck to have a 5/5 Gladecover swinging with First Strike, Trample, and Lifelink by turn 3. Everything in the deck contributes to killing an opponent as fast as possible in order to avoid a drawn out game.

Boon Satyr was suggested by Slycne and I didn't realize that it's Flash can actually apply to it's bestow ability as well! This allows it to work as a permanent Titanic Growth type of buff that synergizes with Ethereal Armor regardless of whether or not it was Bestowed.

Gift of Orzhova was also suggested by Slycne and it's utility is mainly to serve as another evasion mechanic for my creatures. In addition to gaining flying, the added lifelink will quickly create a gap between life totals.

Fleecemane Lion represents a more long-term threat to an opponent. The main point of this card is that it's a 3/3 on turn 2 with the potential of becoming a 4/4 indestructible hexproof that pretty much secures your win. It also has the added benefit of getting the Devotion up to turn Nylea into a creature.

Nylea, God of the Hunt is pretty solid when it comes to it's placement in the deck. This is simply because she not only works as a powerful mana sink if the game gets dragged out and you begin to top draw, but she also grants all other creatures you control Trample regardless of whether or not she herself is a creature! Trust me though that especially with the latest update that she's going to be a creature when she enters the field.

Ordeal of Purphoros is the best Ordeal out of the RGW colors due to it's ability to actually win the game. Ordeal of Heliod gains you 10 life, but you really don't need to gain life when you're hitting so hard with lifelink.

The biggest threat to this deck are supercontrol types that get lucky and draw into a ton of field wipes. It should be able to outrun most other decks otherwise and the ability to sideboard in Skylasher and Ready / Willing against counter/wipe decks will make it extremely powerful against control.
