Which 1-3cmc haste creatures?
Modern Deck Help forum

This is my currently played Modern deck:
So, I'm looking for small haste creatures that either have great power and toughness relative to their mana cost, a la Goblin Guide, or creatures that have relevant abilities and decent P/T, a la Scab-Clan Berserker. I know Berserker is kind of overcosted for Modern, but it has haste and once it's renowned, it beats the crap out of control decks, so I've been looking at it as a possible option. Any thoughts, or other suggestions?
Question is: Do you want an Aggro deck?
What you have now, is probably easier to turn into a ramp deck.
If you want a Zoo deck, the deck's fundementals would have to change a lot. There are probably only 10 cards in the current deck including lands that belong in competitve Zoo, and only around 20 cards that I could see being played in a Zoo-style brew.

Yeah, this deck was once a ramp deck, but I took it to an FNM and is performed pretty dismally, so I changed it a lot. Also, the deck isn't meant to be really competitive, just a decent deck that I can have fun with.

I get it :)
Is a classic and not too expensive package for a gruul aggro deck.

Yeah! It seems like Burning-Tree Emissary into Reckless Bushwhacker would be s pretty cool synergy.

Kjartan I think you're right.. I'm going to try to acquire more Zoo-like cards and better lands in the near future. I would do it right now, but I'm not a person who can just splurge for a bunch of fetch lands and Tarmogoyfs at once, so I'm going to get cards slowly and hopefully turn my deck into a weird variant of Bushwhacker Zoo!

Well, it isn't a traditional Zoo card, but Voltaic Brawler deserves a mention. If you want to go that way, you can find a lot of budget zoo primers in this and other sites.
