I really enjoy playing this deck. Turn 6 is the usual win turn for it, usually finishing with Glorybringer or leaning on Neheb, the Eternal if it goes late. The notable exclusion of Hazoret the Fervent is simply because I like Skyship Stalker more, it usually give me a faster win by letting me pour mana into it. I think it goes better with Hazoret's Favor, as it doesn't make me pay for indestructible and lets me attack no matter what for a measly two points less damage. Why I put in Hazoret's Favor is a good question in itself, but I simply think it's a great aggro card. I also think you can see it as effectively a 3 mana investment to turn the already good hijack effect cards into removal. It means I'm able to run a lot of removal with an upside without it being screwed against a deck running weenies or control. Stealing a Torrential Gearhulk or a god and putting it to sac with the Favor feels great. Overall, this is my favorite standard deck I've ever played, and I recommend you try it out. It can play against the best of em.

And with the By Force's in the sideboard, it is just a fit to me LGS' meta, where treasure decks and Mardu Vehicles are ridiculously popular.
