Deck discussion for Gruul Aggro

I would lower the mana curve. You have 7 4-drops, way too much. I would cut the Slums and Signets for Dryad Sophisticate and an extra Shaman, cut the Birds for Frenzied Goblin or Scorched Rusalka, and cut the Demonfires for Stonewood Invocation.

You do realize if I follow your advice I would have 8 4-drops instead of 7, absolutely no mana acceleration, and no real outlets in situations where I can produce more than four mana, which will probably be often. The deck needs mana acceleration, and if I take the Signets and the Slums out for anything, it will be for Llanowar Elves. If any other creature makes the cut it will probably be Magus of the Scroll. He offers reliable damage late game which is what this deck lacks.

now I could be crazy, but I don't see any slums... and they are what basically make gruul along with the burning tree's. that's my opinion anyways.

I would just say you are crazy, =).

No, not really. I initially had the Slums in the build but took them out, opting for Stonewood Invocation in the 4 mana slot of the decks mana curve. It has proven itself to be a better fit for the deck time and time again through playtesting. It's a much more versatile card than the Rumbling Slum.

This must be an old standard deck cause Scab-Clan,Burning Tree and Solifuge are no longer standard.
