I really love this deck. Thanks for your great ideas.
I made an improved one without the 1CMC theme but 2CMC.

Agressive Simic 1/2 CMC
I am working on it so it would be awesome if you can comment it. Thanks ;)

After all the cookiecutter R/W Boros or R/B Zombies I've been seeing, this is a breath of fresh air for aggro. The Howlpack + Hybridization combo is really clever. Might I suggest adding of Strangleroot Geist, since your manabase seems skewed more to Green? You could hybridize it as you do Young Wolf, and it comes in hasty as well as triggering evolve...

question, are you going to remake this deck once innistrad cycles out?

i may remake this when innistrad cycles out if it is still viable. some of the core cards are from innistrad, Hunger of the Howlpack , Young Wolf , and Rancor will go out as well

I have a similar themed aggro deck with more of a mid-game back-up plan...Immortal Evolution.

I would agree with others that you might consider Strangleroot Geist as you can drop it turn 2 and immediately swing for 3 with it and a Cloudfin Raptor , then turn 3 Rapid Hybridization to evolve the raptor to 3/4, Hunger of the Howlpack and Rancor on the geist to make it a 8/5 with trample, swing for 11.

I really like your Hunger of the Howlpack suggestion and may run it in my deck. I rely on Master Biomancer to beef up my creatures and force opponents into choosing not to block my counter free undying creatures, in which case I can pump with simic charm, or block and kill them and Biomancer with make them bigger when the return.

For card efficiency and only one extra mana try Simic Charm as it does Mizzium Skin , Giant Growth , and Unsummon on one card.

I'd suggest -4 Experiment One +4 Strangleroot Geist , -2 Giant Growth side board the 2 Dryad Militant and go +4 Simic Charm with 20 lands the 8, 2CMC shouldn't be a problem.

if you read the description, you'd know that this deck was built to be a 1 CMC deck. NO Execptions
