An Exalted Aggro Deck using Rafiq and some other choice cards. The Lands need a bit of work to get the right mix of speed and fixing, while preserving the life total a bit.

Ideal order of play is:

T1 Hierarch,

T2 Mimic,

T3 Rafiq to trigger the Mimic and swing with a 7/5 Double Striking Trampler. Trample damage is applied on both the first and second strike, so if they have a 3 toughness guy, you're still hitting for 11.

T4 Finest Hour, Triggers the mimic and gives a 3rd count of exalted. You also get a secondary attack phase, which is nice but not always entirely necessary.

Supporting Spells

Path to Exile clears out pesky blockers or other problem creatures.

Simic Charm is excellent in all its modes, but also triggers Shorecrasher Mimic

Dauntless Escort helps protect the combo similar to the charm

Elspeth, Knight-Errant either an alternative win con or helps push through the final hit

All the other creatures are in the deck to either trigger the Mimic or work as solid Exalted targets
