Might I suggest Ghor-Clan Rampager or Zhur-Taa Swine in place of the hammer- it just seems a little more reliable in pumping out damage. Love the idea, hope it works out well.

Why inferno titan and acidic slime? I mean those are good cards and can work in some decks but for zoo the cmc is way too high. I LOVE talaras battalion. I've never seen it before.

@evermoistcorndog That is a very good point! I did not consider them being too high cmc because my play group is full of control. That being said, I will probably swap some of them but not fully remove them. Thank you for bringing that up.
Talara's Battalion is a favorite of mine (:

This deck looks fun, you can do a myr superior turn 2 with ease. have you considered Collected Company?

@Burila24 Believe it or not, I can't believe I had not considered Collected Company. It is such a powerful card and has been so prevalent in many formats. I will definitely find room for some copies. Thanks for the suggestion!

Instead of Shaman of Forgotten Ways, since the 11 mana seems unlikely, why not Somberwald Sage? It gets you an extra mana for the same mana cost of shaman. Also, since the extra mana you get can only cast creature spells, maybe try Keen Sense as it costs significantly less than Hunter's Insight. Also maybe some way to trample through? Primal Rage is the most cost efficient (for all creatures) however Nylea, God of the Hunt is a good mana sink. Like the deck though man.

Thanks for the suggestions! I will definitely make changes for Keen Sense and Primal Rage. I will do some testing with Somberwald Sage replacing Shaman of Forgotten Ways. You made good points about why I should switch them, but I'm concerned about loosing the body that the shaman has for a a creature with no power. I will make judgements after some play testing. Again, that's for your feedback!

Fair enough. I didn't think about the fact the Shaman of Forgotten Ways has a somewhat decent body to block. And I guess you do have plenty of other creatures that make mana. Good luck with the deck man!

Is Primal Rage really that helpful in every game? I would recommend moving that to the sideboard. In place of that I would run Atarka's Command. Good luck!

I think Primal Rage works very well when I play it. Since this deck's creatures are usually statted higher than others, trample becomes more useful than normal. I find that I am always getting value out of it. Primal Rage is usually getting 3-5 damage while destroying the opponent's board. I feel the board presence Primal Rage brings is more impactful than Atarka's Command. I appreciate the input though!

Fantastic brew you have, and as an aggro player in modern I find my biggest issues are things like lightning bolt, path to exile, and vapor snag, so I'd recommend cutting the keen sense for something like Vines of Vastwood or a finisher like Revenge of the Hunted since keen sense is easy for a lot of decks in the format to deal with by just removing the one creature before it has an impact. Scavenging Ooze is also a good inclusion for games you don't win as fast or vs burn decks. Finally with only 3 CoCo's you should be okay cutting a land for something else like a 4th rancor. If you really want draw though and who doesn't? Harmonize is sadly your best bet in green still in terms of consistency.

Thank you for you're input and sorry for taking so long to respond! I definitely have had problems with the efficient removal every deck seems to run. From your insight and reviewing previous games, I have come to the conclusion that the draw from Keen Sense is not needed. If I have not won by the time I need draw, I have most likely lost. I am going to replace them with Vines of Vastwood.

Many of them are not "high value that strongly impact the board". That is why the there is that heading text that reads "Major Description Editing in Progress".
