A lower-to-the-ground variation of RG/x Zoo, this deck wants to use similar tools to hit the board swinging.

Each of the one-drops serves a slightly different purpose, so definitely think about how you're using each card when you draw them. On a gameplay level, be very careful about how you stack your ETB's, as this is critical to getting the most out of Collected Company. CoCo and Bloodbraid Elf can hit virtually every card in the deck, except eachother and Vaultbreaker, who is present for filtering and the Dash ability, which will let you stack Pelt Collector to easily to four, alongside Vexing Devils.

In the sideboard, Destructive Revelry could be exchanged for Reclamation Sage, which can be hit with CoCo in addition to bloodbraid, but is a marginally harder cast. Its up to you to determine whether you need the aggressive cost or the body and chaining more.

This deck sideboards pretty cleanly. Gruul Charm (which I think is criminally underrated) can clear the board of evaders, or open you up for the final push. Relic of Progenitus is a nice cure-all for all things graveyard or you can go for the pickier bodied version and use Scavenging Ooze. Guttural Response if you're dealing with an annoying amount of counterspells after turn 3, and Melira, Sylvok Outcast is an option for Infect variants.
