My first attempt at a fairly fast Bant deck, though recent revisions have been influenced by Ohthenoises' deck Live Long and Populate.

The goal here is to utilize Trostani, Selesnya's Voice to gain life and populate Geist of Saint Traft Angel tokens. Master Biomancer ensures that every creature you play is an immediate threat while Cyclonic Rift staves off threats or seals the game with a one-sided board wipe. Garruk, Primal Hunter and Prime Speaker Zegana are primarily draw engines. Cloudfin Raptor has massive evolution potential in this deck, and quickly develops a significant presence.
