The Infinite Combo

I play a Forerunner of the Empire and tutor for Raptor Hatchling, play Raptor Hatchling the next turn then cast Heroic Intervention in response to the forerunner trigger, everything takes damage and the hatchling makes a dino token (you can probably see where this is going). The token entering will trigger Forerunner of the Empire and this can repeat to infinity. Every creature is taking virtually infinite damage however yours are all indestructible and if you have Ripjaw Raptor, Ranging Raptors or an additional Raptor Hatchling you draw your library, get every basic out of your deck or make infinite 3/3s respectively. Also you'll probably have 3 3/3s at the end of this too.

This won't happen that often as there are only 2 Heroic Interventions main deck however I can complete the playset from the sideboard depending on the matchup.

Everything else

Basically it's a stompy deck with worse creatures that gets better when an enrage enabler meet an enrage creature. This works in theory however in practice most competitive decks run enough interaction to keep you off any meaningful enrage synergy. As a result I'm now playing this in the 'just for fun lobby' on mtgo rather than 'tournament practice' but it can certainly hold it's own there.
