Predator

Predator is a aggro/combo-ish deck and try to put in play Kavu Predator and make it huge by giving life points to the opponent. The main goal is to play Kavu Predator turn 2 (from your hand or via Green Sun's Zenith + Noble Hierarch ) and attack the opponent turn 2 with it, full of +1/+1 counters on it. Turn 4 or turn 5 if your opponent didn't get rid of him, it's the end of the game. With also 3 of Stoneforge Mystic along with Batterskull , Umezawa's Jitte or Sword of Fire and Ice increase the number of threat to handle. Cards like Thalia, Guardian of Thraben , Thalia, Heretic Cathar , Swords to Plowshares , Wasteland , ... give some kind of control and protection.

This creature will became really fast one of the bigger problem for your opponent. His trample ability is also great for legacy that not used to trample. Now your opponent can't block with True Name Nemesis to prevent damage.

A really sweet card on this deck. With Kavu this will give +4/+4 fro free and 3 +1/+1 counter on your Kavu. It could also give your play a surprise block as the opponent doesn't expect you to have it. Enjoy watching Gurmag Angler or Reality Smasher be killed by a Stoneforge Mystic block and prevent bolt on your creatures.
One of the best legacy removal and his only downside became a huge plus side. You want to be greedy ? Invigorate one of your opponent creature and then exile it, it will give a incredible amount of counter to your Kavu.
The second way to put pressure on the opponent. Fetch Batterskull your opponents need to choose between removing stoneforge but let Kavu die, or removing kavu and have a Batterskull to fight against. Take jitte to add some counter to remove annoying little creatures or make more damage on the next attack. Sword is here to add protection to your kavu. Kavu Is generally too big for bolt, multiple punishing fire, etc. but he fear abrupt decay, fatal push, sword, deathtouch, etc. Equip to this sword to it and it's now an harder problem to remove. Also with the trample you are pretty much sure to hit the player for some damage.
