The deck has a very consistent way of playing 4th turn drops on turn 3 by way of Zhur-Taa Druid/Farseek which will allow that 3rd turn Master Biomancer into a 4th turn Huntmaster of the Fells  , giving you board state dominance most of the time.

If the deck curves perfectly, then on your 5th turn, Savageborn Hydra comes out to play with 4 counters from mana and 2 counters from your Master Biomancer , giving you a grand total of 6 +1/+1 counters on your double-striking creature. If you are lucky enough to still have him on the board during your next turn, Prime Speaker Zegana would be a great card to play. She would come into play with 6 +1/+1 counters from your Savageborn Hydra and 2 +1/+1 counters from your Master Biomancer giving her a grand total of 9 power...which means you draw 9 cards. And do it all over again.

Kessig Wolf Run and Savageborn Hydra are the key to this deck. However, a 9/9 Prime Speaker Zegana is a great target for a Kessig Wolf Run as well. The deck has so much reach, and hopefully the speed to allow it to reach against early pressure decks.

The Ral Zarek and Gilded Lotus engine can generate a ton of mana to pump into Kessig Wolf Run or to add counters to your Savageborn Hydra, but be wary of pre-combat main phase Kessig Wolf Run! Lots of spot removal running around right now...

I would almost like to add Rancor into the deck, but I feel it being almost too slow and not flowing with the decks curve.

Any ideas, questions, and/or comments are all greatly appreciated!
