Ethereal armor probably of less use since fencing ace already double strike, would drop them for [faith's shield]. also would sideboard Rootborn Defenses for defense against Supreme Verdict and other board wipes

Thanks for the suggestion! I think I might just do that, as it would provide with much needed protection for Wild Defiance :-) I was originally using the ethereal armour because it gives a boost to toughness making it harder to kill fencing ace, but I guess some extra protection would work just as well, not to mention its an instant so can buff him up as well!

If you can, I'd use Silverblade Paladin over Swift Justice . And then try and get a fourth one also. Probably by cutting a Wild Defiance . Being so short on creatures makes Wild Beastmaster less effective and also makes it harder for you to have something worth buffing. You won't get a Fencing Ace every game, so it doubles the probability of getting double strikers out. And bonded to a Wild Beastmaster could get ugly pretty quickly for your opponent. But if they are too expensive I'd still replace the Swift Justice for something like Titanic Growth at least. But still try for a few more creatures I think. Champion of the Parish , Mayor of Avabruck  ^Flip , Precinct Captain , Elite Inquisitor , among others, could all be an improvement I think

Swift Justice is in there for the life-link, quite often find myself gaining 18+ life on turn 4 from it, so I think it's worth keeping.Though perhaps I could just sideboard it, and then mainboard it when needed. I do like the idea of Silverblade Paladin & Wild Beastmaster , but unfortunately all my Paladins are tied up in my Exalted deck.There's just too many options, I'm going to have to playtest a whole bunch of builds before I settle on one :P

For the time being I've gone with Mayor of Avabruck  ^Flip , it's less mana intensive than the other options, and has the potential to increase my creature base for more synergy with Wild Beastmaster .

Oh I didn't even realize that Swift Justice gave lifelink. Definitely makes it better than I earlier thought. Probably should make sure I read things right. I still think the deck looks a lot better with 16 creatures though. But if you think the life helps you a lot, maybe you could still fit some in? Good luck.

ok so for Gatecrash I'm going to add red into the deck, I've found from playing this deck that I always run out of creatures/steam if I don't win within 4 or 5 turns so I need some bigger threats as well. The main reason is I want to run Ghor-Clan Rampager and some other Bloodrush creatures. I think I'm going to take out the Mayor of Avabruck  ^Flip to do this at the moment. What do you guys think?

Really like the way this deck works. +1 from me.

Dude Madcap Skills . It works.

Yeah I've been looking at using Madcap Skills with Alpha Authority to make it completely unblockable and hexproof, but it just doesn't really fit in this deck, would be better suited to a pure Gruul deck. For less mana I can use card:Faith's Shield to make something unblockable which would buff it +3/3 if I had Wild Defiance out as well. Plus, Rancor is just better, I'd rather take trample any day.
