My Naya homebrew. Plan A is to drop a mana dork turn 1 and a Woolly Thoctar or Loxodon Smiter turn two, then pump it and give it double strike turn 3. If that doesn't happen just keep hitting them with whatever you have, and/or play a dragon. A particularly strong secondary line of play is to play a few Birds of Paradise and then drop Dromoka, the Eternal on turn 3. Swing in with birds and Dromoka turn 4 and she bolsters the birds creating 2/3 fliers.

This deck isn't tier one, but it does have versatility. I consider it between aggro and midrange. You can race the faster aggro decks like infect or kiln fiend and win, or kill tron before it gets out of hand, and with the larger creatures you don't run out of gas against control decks as easily as zoo. The flying creatures will sail right over Abzan creatures like Tarmogoyf, Siege Rhino or Tasigur, the Golden Fang, and with pump/ double strike spells can kill opponents with strong board states on the ground. Loxodon Smiter is great against Liliana of the Veil and Thundermaw Hellkite is a swift and brutal response to Lingering Souls.

More controlling decks are the worst matchuo, as well as affinity, bogles and a couple other aggro decks that can consistently outpace this deck, hence the sideboard is composed of answers to discard, kill spells, counterspells, and artifacts/enchantments.
