This is a pretty straightforward aggro deck; it relies on multicolored creatures and synergy with Knight of New Alara and Wilt-Leaf Liege, both of which will grow your attackers very quickly. Here's a breakdown of each card choice.

1 Mana Creatures

• Noble Hierarch, Birds of Paradise - early ramp; we could consider running one of the G/W hybrid mana one-drops, but the ramp is stronger. Substitute Noble Hiearch for Llanowar Elves or Arbor Elf to make the deck more budget-friendly.

2 Mana Creatures

• Naya Hushblade, Bant Sureblade - fairly powerful cards on their own, but synergize very well with Knight of New Alara, which gives each of these guys +3/+3.

• Fleecemane Lion - A mana efficient creature that becomes very resilient late game.

• Voice of Resurgence - A one-of creature with a lot of value and suitable as hate card in some matchups.

3 Mana Creatures

• Knight of Autumn - Extremely strong in certain matchups, especially pre-sideboard; being able to threaten enchantments and artifacts, while getting a decent creature is very strong. Otherwise, it can just be a fairly efficient attacker, or gain you some life.

• Kitchen Finks - Amazing against creature decks, gaining you tons of life, and with anthem effects can persist many times.

4 Mana Creatures

• Wilt-Leaf Liege - Powerful card that gives every other creature (except our dorks) +2/+2. Is also a powerful body and blows out lots of discard strategies.

• Knight of New Alara - A weak body, but offers a very powerful pump to almost every one of our creatures. Acts like Lieges 5-8, with extra payoff if you have Bant Sureblade or Naya Hushblade out.

Noncreature Spells

• Light from Within - Gives Finks +2/+2 and Liege +3/+3; everything else gets +1/+1. Could probably be replaced with some removal to make the deck a bit more interactive; could also be replaced with Brave the Elements to enable lethal attacks.

Sideboard

• Path to Exile - Powerful removal spell.

• Kor Firewalker - Works well with Light From Within and is very effective against burn.

• Brave the Elements - Saves your creatures from removal or helps you swing past blockers.

• Celestial Purge - Very powerful in relevant matchups.

• Oblivion Ring - Versatile removal spell.

• Beast Within - Incredibly versatile, and your creatures are usually bigger than the token.

The sideboard is designed to be budget friendly; cards like Stony Silence and Rest in Peace are of course good if you have them.
