Summary

The guideline for the creatures to be put in this deck is for the card to have 5 or less CMC and Trample. I know I could add creatures that give other creatures Trample but I enjoy having some challenge to it. It also flows better with the main synergy pieces. The sideboard isn't as strict so it can fit in with other Modern decks. This is also my first Modern deck I've made. I feel like it's pretty competitive and could hold up to other decks in the format well. If you have any suggestions I'd love to hear them!

Mainboard

The heart of the deck is the synergy with Proud Wildbonder, to get damage through to opponent(s), and Quartzwood Crasher, to create more trample creatures for damage. Atsushi, the Blazing Sky synergizes well with Wildbonder, gives some flying to the deck and has the ability ramp or get more cards to play. Old-Growth Troll provides more damage with the trample as well as the possibility for more ramp if it would die. Ignoble Hierarch for ramp/fix and Arbor Elf with Utopia Sprawl for more ramp. Ram Through and Lightning Bolt for creature removal or can be used for direct damage. Elven Farsight to scry and get creatures in hand. Rhythm of the Wild to give creatures haste or +1/+1 counters, and makes creatures uncouterable. Ghor-Clan Rampager can be played to pump a creature if needed. Colossal Rattlewurm is a great creature with a nice upside if it dies. Klothys, God of Destiny was only in the sideboard but moved one over. I also added Basilisk Collar and Bow of Nylea since Deathtouch works really nice with Trample.

Sideboard

The sideboard is still in progress but Pithing Needle is to shut down cards activated abilities. While, Veil of Summer is more for making cards uncounterable (it's easier to cast over Rhythm of the Wild and affects more than creatures while being an instant). Blood Moon to prevent non-basic lands from being used whether they are utility or for mana-fixing. Shattering Spree and Return to Nature for more Artifact/Enchantment heavy match-ups. Choke for heavy blue decks, like decks with Murktide Regent. Grafdigger's Cage to help counter reanimate and dredge decks. Soul-Guide Lantern or Klothys, God of Destiny for graveyard hate, Lantern for larger graveyard hate while Klothys for consistent hate with a benefit. Void Mirror to counter artifact decks like Affinity, and Torpor Orb to stop creature ETB triggers.
