This deck is following the basic Naya way of great creatures for every level of the curve, acceleration to make hitting them easier and quicker, a sprinkling of removal for troublesome targets, and unfathomable synergy. All the major players are here, with full sets of Thragtusk, Restoration Angel and Huntmaster of the Fells   providing blockers, life and reasonable threats until a bomb comes out or they chip away enough to win outright. Avacyn's Pilgrim, Farseek and Borderland Ranger bring the ramp and mana fixing needed to get off the wide array of colors.

Selesnya Charm exiles Obzedat, Ghost Council, opponent's Thundermaw Hellkitess and other big threats, and can create flashed blockers for geists, and Loxodon Smiter provides great defense early on against aggro decks as well as an assured attacker against control. Burn in the form of Pillar of Flame and Searing Spear is for that edge against aggro decks until I can stem the beating with a Huntmaster or Tusk.

The Thundermaw Hellkites come in and win games as finisher, while Gisela, Blade of Goldnight can affect the field the turn she arrives, and becomes an overall blowout when she does!
