The entire focus is to have my creatures getting more powerful each turn so every card works towards that effect. The goal is to build my side of the field fast and have my creatures get stronger each turn. I also tried to keep the average mana cost low... I don't really like high cost cards.

Every creature besides Stromkirk Captain and Archetype of Aggression has the effect "when deals combat damage to player add a +1/+1 counter". First strike will hopefully prevent my creatures from being destroyed as they are gaining those counters (and also counter deathtouch decks). Granting my creatures trample will make it easier for them to gain counters. Curse of Stalked Prey and Rakish Heir will add counters to my creatures faster. Terminate and Falkenrath Exterminator are meant to remove obstacles to gaining counters. Also paired with Blade of the Bloodchief it will add counters to my creatures faster.

Crimson Wisps is really for early game so that i can start building up counters quickly to avoid my creatures being removed by burns. It also gives me some card draw.

I'd welcome any feedback. I'm not really sure what to put in my side deck so suggestions would be great.

Please Please Please tell me what you think! I'm new to magic so i'd really appreciate feedback.
