Deathmist Raptor is a definite good option if you can afford him.

I think this deck is good and fast, maybe put a Liliana Vess as a search engine, Vraska the Unseen and her ultimate and plus 1 would go good in that deck, but that's just me

I feel like you could benefit from having some sort of protection plan in place like Valorous Stance. Before you cleared the comments you had responded to my board wipe question but i didn't get a chance to read it before it was deleted. Thoughts?

Ferrari_420, Thought about Deathmist Raptor, in the end, the biggest thing that deterred me from him was having two 3 drops that required double Green/Black mana drops.

JohnyBoy1178, This deck is standard legal and not designed for modern, ty though :)

rochdalekilla9, I've considered Valorous Stance, it was actually in my original board, its always in the back of my mind. Also, Evolutionary Leap and Inspiring Call are both there for board wipe situations :)

+1 for "Fight, Owens, Fight". But I like "Kill, Owens, kill" more

Btw, have you ever considered Woodland Wanderer? For this deck it would come in as a 5/5 and with Hardened Scales it could easily be a 6/6 with vigilance and trample. I am just wondering if you ever considered it and if you did, why you chose to not put it in here?

Also, Warden of the First Tree is somewhat out of place here although i can see why you included it...have you ever thought about Earthen Arms or something along those lines?

Woodland Wanderer is a great card for this deck, but the real question is what would you swap it for? Also, Earthen Arms is just a bit inferior to Dromoka's Command or Abzan Charm. Warden of the First Tree is in there mostly for the lifelink, he's a very early drop in the deck, and a huge annoyance, plus he helps extend the game, and the final ability has won me a game or two in the past as well alone.

Too bad Ajani, Mentor of Heroes is out of standard.

Ok so I brought this deck, with some tweaks, to the 5K Invitational Qualifier this past weekend. I ran Woodland Wanderer and took out one of the Gleam of Authority. I went 1-3-1 before I dropped. Eldrazi with Ulamog is a thing, and we very very very rarely can outrace them. Gleam of Authority did next to nothing for me, and my new version will not include it. Woodland Wanderer is a beast though. Although I didn't get to play with it, Avatar of the Resolute is a must in this deck, especially with Mantis Rider and other shenanigans running around. It puts in work even if you just drop it turn 2 without putting counters on it. I made a few misplays, but this deck definitely needs some work and possibly a splashed 4th color to make it viable against Dark Jeskai, Eldrazi Ramp, Esper Control, etc. Bone Splinters is something you should consider. Either use it when they lethally target one of your guys or use it on your own Hangarback Walker to get those sweet, sweet Thopters. Infinite Obliteration would be good for the SB against any Ulamog deck. These are mere suggestions based off what I played against and what I saw at the 5k.

Why do you have 4 Abzan Charm mainboard and one sideboard? lol +1. My friend has a deck pretty similar to this, but with only one rhino, no anafenzas (he's playing on roughly $12.50 a week)2 mur ek nightblade, 2 ainok bond kin, no wardens, 2 sorins, and 2 ivorytusks

How has this deck been running for you? I've been thinking of creating something similar. My version is still under construction but I like that you've splashed white. Increases the cost of the deck a bit though. Seems to be very strong!
