Deck Challenge: Rooftop Storm/Ghoultree

Hey so I thought this would be a pretty cool combo to cast all four Ghoultrees for free with rooftop storm but I am having a hard time building a deck around it. I have one but I don't think it would do very well and since I'm not posting it you won't be tainted in which way to go with it. Really I just want a deck that would be able to pull off the combo fairly often. Also thought about some sort of trample for the ghoultrees but do what you want. Thanks!

Does it need to be Standard?

Modern or standard is fine.

No trample there but its a variant on a splinterfright deck that I run and I think it might work.. Fair warning though, rooftop storm is not a super great card. Cheers :)

Here's what I threw together: http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=296303

I might try again later with modern. My problem with Rooftop here, as much as I love it, is that by the time you have enough to cast rooftop, you've got enough to cast ghoultree probably anyway. Would really rather have some way to put Rooftop into play early, but that doesn't really exist in standard, that I can think of off the top of my head.

Yeah I guess I was more looking at being able to cast all 4 Ghoultrees at the same time for free because of rooftop. Most likely Infernal Tutor or something similar would need to be used to accomplish that. I was more looking at building a deck to hold off opponent until I could pull that off. Was mostly for fun. Thanks for the thoughts so far.

If I was building a casual legacy version of the combo, it'd look like this: http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=296666
