"Me Grimlock no bozo, me KING!" - Grimlock, Transformers The Movie

I want to use Grimlock, Dinobot Leader   and my play group has been kind enough to agree to let me use him. Here is a summary of rules clarifications from Mark Rosewater's Blogatog. And here is a piece of birthday trivia from him about Grimlock.

I started with just jamming in whatever I had available of the things he cares about. I forgot my Transformer toy the first time I played the deck so I couldn't transform Grimlock, but he doesn't really need to transform. The deck is good at just playing creatures and turning them sideways and Grimlock's power boost makes those creatures good at what they're doing. Transforming him into Grimlock, Ferocious King can be a nice little combat trick.

The next step is to include cards to help my creatures "Get In There" for damage. Most of the cards in this category grant my creatures trample or menace.

I hope I have included enough removal. I am also partially relying on forcing my opponents to block as a form of creature removal.

Card draw is definitely an issue to look at. A creature-heavy aggro deck needs some extra card draw in order to keep going.

The Utility category is mostly ramp. It also includes a few other effects which are helpful. Utility is my catch-all for anything that doesn't have enough cards to need its own category.
