Deck Description

This is my wife's dinosaur deck she put together from a Rivals of Ixalan package she got as present.

Basic Idea:
She found that she had a high number of dinosaur-creatures in her package and wanted to build a deck on her own (first time!). So I sat down with her, we discussed over some of the card-choices ("but he's so cute"...*ahem*) and I threw in some additional Knight of the Stampede I had lying around.

Tests:
This deck has seen some limited play against friends. I'm open to all suggestions and ideas that may help to further improve this deck.

How to Play

The deck behaves pretty good for a rushed build with limited card-pool. Knight of the Stampede is one of the key-creatures here as it allows to play e.g. Frilled Deathspitter for only 1 red mana.
The deck features a small combo using Cherished Hatchling and Polyraptor. Cherished Hatchling dies, cast Polyraptor and target one of your opponents creatures. Both deal damage to each other, Polyraptor creates a copy of itself that deals damage to another creature your opponet controls, and so on. Basically a board-wipe for creatures up to a power of 5.

Deck discussion for R/G Standard: Dinosaurs

Search for Tomorrow > Thunderherd Migration, suspend cost is lower and land enters untapped.
Shock is nice but if you've the $$$ lightining bolt would be better.
Regisaur Alpha > Colossal Dreadmaw
Thundering Spineback can be useful too

I have replaced the 4 Terramorphic Expanse with Evolving Wilds and changed it from modern to standard ^^.
Tough solid suggestions.
