This deck is a montain themed deck, as you guessed. It starts small but can get quite huge. The first goal is to keep the board pretty clean with some damage Spitting Earth and Blazing Salvo, yes I know the salvo is meh but it's a cheap lightning bolt that can turn into 5 dmg. To me that's good. Walking Atlas helps out by getting more land on the board.

Goblin Diplomats, oh this card, I love it. It's cheap ($ and mana) it either attracts removal or can control your opponent's board. Great vs defensive player! Then you play Archetype of Aggression to get and deny Trample for 3 mana! For weak creature this is meh, but Awaken the Ancient should be right around the corner! A 7/7 with haste for 4 and a land! This is great value and a big early threat! use Drangon Mantle to get a pump ability on him for 1 mana and no card ( because of the draw effect). And get Fist of Valakut ont him, great buff and adds first strike!

This way you can have a 15/7 with first strike and trample on turn 5!

To protect: Swiftfoot Boots

If things aren't looking out, there is still Hellkite Tyrant That has flying, good damage, 2 times trample and steals artifacts! + provides you with and alternate win condition if needed.

Aftershock is in there to be used as a multi-purpose destroy effet, just in case. Armed / Dangerous is to get Double strike on your big creature with trample.
