Personally I like Lush Growth over Abundant Growth to enable your creatures and this deck is just naya anyways so it's a lot better than it is in 4 or 5 color domain. I would maybe consider some tapped duals that have basic land types so you can have a swamps or islands for domain without banking on drawing Nylea's Presence. 6 copies of Terramorphic Expanse/Evolving Wilds are pretty slow already so swapping them for tap lands doesn't seem like too much of a loss. Running the swamp type on a few lands + 4 Nylea's Presence in the deck would make running some copies of Snuff Out pretty consistent. Having premium removal that costs 0 mana seems great for a creature heavy aggro deck. I don't see too much of a point in Kor Skyfisher as you really have no good targets to bounce. It's a niche combo with rancor since bouncing the enchanted creature puts it in the graveyard, then back into your hand, but it seems like too much of a tempo loss to have to bounce your own beaters. I guess you can also bounce a land and replay it if you miss a land drop but if that's what you're going for I would suggest going down to 18 lands and cutting 1-2 Matca Rioters to run more aggressive 1 drop creatures. Spark Elemental, Jungle Lion, Jackal Familiar, Goblin Cohort, Clockwork Percussionist, Fanatical Firebrand, or Gingerbrute are all aggressive 1 drops that come to mind. Clockwork Percussionist in particular provides card advantage which is very good and can help you hit land drops if you choose to run a lower land count.

Deck looks cool and keep in mind these are just suggestions, have a nice day <3

Gambler's Fallacy

Enchantment

Whenever a player flips a coin, they lose that flip. When you lose a coin flip this way, target player loses 1 life and you lose 1 life. (Each player is a loser for as long as Gambler's Fallacy remains on the battlefield.)

"Come on, I'm due for a win!"

Create a familiar. It can be like the X-scape Familiar cycle (Thornscape Familiar), the Commander Familiar cycle (Esior, Wardwing Familiar), or something else (Jackal Familiar).

This is a really neat gift. Sorry to hear about your brother's pups.

You might like these: Hyena Umbra , Jackal Familiar , Isamaru, Hound of Konda , Pack Mastiff , Rambunctious Mutt , Two-Headed Cerberus .

There's also some interesting synergy among Blood Hound , Lava Hounds , and Jackal Pup . Building around those would probably be a whole different deck though haha.

Well, when I think of jackals, on of my favorite creatures that pop up is Earthshaker Khenra. It's a really fun card, immediately coming down and attacking while surprising one of your opponents creatures, Plus, if they manage to take him out you can just bring him back as an Eternal for an encore. Another good jackal is Dread Wanderer, who is also a creature that is really hard to take care of permanently. i'm assuming this is a casual list, so I will also include Jackal Familiar, a 2/2 creature for one red mana. Of course, if you aren't looking for any new additions I'd just suggest cutting it down to 60 cards or so, so that you can reliably get your themed creatures out. A big reason I make a deck like this around some cool tribal idea is to see your creatures come out, as seeing them on the board is a lot funner than seeing them in the hand. and in an 80 card deck you'd like more than 30 lands or so, just to be able to play the game. After the Amonkhet block rotated out (the Egyptian themed set), these cards should be a lot easier to find, with people not using them very often anymore in competitive play.

move Volcanic Fallout's to SB

move 2xSearing Blaze's to MB

+1 Mountain SB

+2-3 gy hate SB

cut Jackal Familiar

i say +1 mountain because if your vs tron for example you are going to want your land destruction on curve and with 16 land for getting atleast 3 land on turn 3 is 44% on the play and 53% on the draw but with +1 it goes up to 50% and 58%. having a flexiable mana base for matchups and on play/not for decks that are trying to scrape past with minimal land is quite important

if you want to borrow any of my stuff that "might" be useful I have 2xCurse of the Pierced Heart 3xYoung Pyromancer 2-3xRatchet Bomb 1xKiln Fiend laying around

Boza i dont think Jackal Familiar is the right card you meant to link. it is nothing like Mogg Maniac

Neotrup, mogg maniac works differently from Jackal Familiar, it can only damage an opponent and never its controller.
