I loved this deck with Stonebrow, Krosan Hero as the commander. Xenagos is just plain better for what I want to do. He's harder to get rid of, he makes things HUGE, and gives them haste.

This deck employs many ways to give my things haste and trample. Smashing face the entire game. This is a very aggressive deck that will draw some hate from the table, but it's a lot of fun to play.

Haste Enablers: Xenagos, God of Revels himself, Fervor, Fires of Yavimaya, Sarkhan Vol, Hammer of Purphoros, Urabrask the Hidden, Ogre Battledriver, Domri Rade and both sets of boots.

Trample Enablers: Brawn, Domri Rade , Kamahl, Fist of Krosa, Primal Rage , Craterhoof Behemoth, Nylea, God of the Hunt, Kessig Wolf Run, and Skarrg, the Rage Pits . Most creatures have trample naturally as well.

This deck started out very budget friendly, then I pulled a Domri Rade in a draft and the cost is going up. He really gets stupid if he goes unchecked.

Tools: Bow of Nylea gives deathtouch and all but one damage tramples through. Sylvan Primordial was there, but was recently banned, put in Savage Beating instead. Acidic Slime for those pesky non-creature permanants.

Elvish Piper, Sneak Attack and Quicksilver Amulet all let me play giant dudes quicker.

Only two combos: Breath of Fury + Giant Adephage and Aggravated Assault + Nature's Will = infinite combat steps.

Xenagos, God of Revels will be re-gosh-darn-donkulous in a deck like this. Double power and haste on a big fatty? Yes, please.

I do not run Akroma's Memorial because the protection it provides stops Xenagos' ability.
