Deck works really well. Only problem is friends will refuse to play with you. :P

Update: I changed up this deck from a 74 card, to a 60 card. I copped the original and if you want to take a look it's here: (deck:op-dragon-original-74-cards)
\/ Turn 3 win (1v1) \/
Turn 1: play Forest tap for Hardened Scales.
Turn 2: Play Rootbound Crag tap for Slumbering Dragon Then play Forced Adaptation on to Slumbering Dragon.
Turn 3: Miracle Blessings of Nature, play Assault Strobe then swing for the win with a 10/10 Flying, Double Strike.
\/ Turn 5 win (4 Man) \/
Turn 1: Play Forest tap for Hardened Scales. |total Damage: 0|
Turn 2: Play Rootbound Crag tap for Slumbering Dragon then play Forced Adaptation on to Slumbering Dragon. |Total Damage: 0|
Turn 3: Miracle Blessings of Nature play Forest then play Solidarity of Heroes before swinging with Slumbering Dragon as a 18/18 Flying at opponent-1. |Total Damage: 18|
Turn 4: Play Tuskguard Captain and swing with Slumbering Dragon as a 20/20 Flying, Trample at opponent-2 eliminating them. |Total Damage: 38|
Turn 5: Play a second Solidarity of Heroes and a Assault Strobe then swing with Slumbering Dragon as a 42/42 Flying, Trample, Double Strike at opponent-3 eliminating them. And swing Tuskguard Captain as a 2/3 at opponent-1 eliminating them and winning the game. |Total Damage: 124|
(Note: All the above combos are for almost perfect case scenarios. In real games your opponent will be fighting back, but if they use creatures that means more counters for Slumbering Dragon and Predator Ooze!)
\/ Other Useful Combos \/
Put Forced Adaptation onto Predator Ooze with Hardened Scales in the battlefield, and every turn if you swing it can get 4-6 +1/+1 counters.
~~~~~
If you have Hardened Scales in the battlefield, and you play Blessings of Nature put one counter on each Creature you control so Hardened Scales triggers on each separately and you get more counters.
~~~~~
Use Bioshift after blockers have been declared so you can move counters from a blocked creature to an unblocked creature. Also keep in mind that Bioshift triggers
Hardened Scales.
\/Sideboard \/
I personally don't use a sideboard, but added one due to request.
Assault Strobe: For when you need a little more added damage.
Sheltering Word: Highly recommend mixing in to protect from targeted removal.
Noxious Revival: Works grate with Blessings of Nature.
Savage Summoning: For when playing against a control deck.
Prey Upon: Use it to shut down your opponents, by killing their important creatures.
Servant of the Scale: Used as chump block, also to save up counters early game.
Oran-Rief, the Vastwood: Works best if your opponent is playing a long set up deck.
Faithless Looting: Good for cycling cards you may not need, and to draw into a specific win con.
