This isn't a bad start for a 1st attempt. However, you may want to become a tad more creature focused and elevate the quality of the creatures - Lampad of Death's Vigil could be replaced by Viscera Seer a free outlet that gives you a scry. Additionally, you could add Anafenza, Kin-Tree Spirit and Lesser Masticore - with that free sac outlet you could scry through your whole deck and if you add an aristocrat like Blood Artist or Cruel Celebrant you can drain table; though I would definitely see if your group would be okay with combos before implementing them into a deck :) anyways, hope you enjoy the format.

Just some suggestions ;)

Anafenza, Kin-Tree Spirit - makes smallest dude a little more swoll; additionally combo potential - put it in from your board

Anax, Hardened in the Forge - value town/sudo wrath/removal protection on a body

Archon of Emeria - rule of law on a flying body slaps in a fair aggro deck

Aven Mindcensor - F#$% their tutors and fetches

Ethersworn Canonist - artifact rule of law is still a rule of law and keeps things fair

Giver of Runes - redundancy with your Mother of Runes is pretty cool

Goblin Cratermaker - can take down a problem bear or a problem ugin

Magus of the Moon - might be out of budget but if you got one this card is very frustrating for most players

Phyrexian Revoker - needle with legs

Ranger-Captain of Eos - tiny dude tutor combined with a built in silence it earns its' price tag

Samurai of the Pale Curtain - 2 words. Fox Samurai.

Ancestral Statue + Anafenza, Kin-Tree Spirit seem like a neat combo

Have you tried Kor Duelist or Anafenza, Kin-Tree Spirit?

Anafenza, Kin-Tree Spirit works well for persist combos. Selfless Spirit can be an early play that protects your team later and Heroic Intervention is another good protection card.

Murderous Redcap plus Anafenza, Kin-Tree Spirit is an infinite damage instant win combo and they both can be resurrected with Alesha. I agree tho that this is a solid build and doesn't need the combo while still potentially benefiting from it. In my opinion Dead of Winter should not be in the sideboard since you have no nonland snow permanents and you are playing a lot of your own minions and you have enough removal. I recommend you replace it with a mass graveyard exile effect. Also Fulminator Mage is very good as a 3 of in the sideboard and is good against tron and again can be resurrected with Alesha and Unearth. Final Thoughts: take out 3 Dead of Winter, 1 Surgical Extraction, and 2 Inquisition of Kozilek from side board and put in 3 Fulminator Mage and 3 Nihil Spellbomb.

I think you're doing it right so far. Rather than throw a lot of card suggestions at you, I'll point to 3 decks I have that are centered around +1/+1 counters, and let you peruse them. One is mono-green, and the other two are Simic, so take it as you like.

• Oozing Trickster

• Fathom Scales

• Obligatory 420 Devotion to Green

Also, though, Ajani, Wise Counselor, Ajani, Inspiring Leader, Anafenza, Kin-Tree Spirit, Archangel of Thune, Drana, Liberator of Malakir, Karlov of the Ghost Council, Faeburrow Elder, Bloom Tender, Leyline Prowler and Cryptolith Rite.

That's a lot to absorb, but I'll add also that this deck seems ripe for including the Heliod, Sun-Crowned + Walking Ballista combo. Both cards would work independently in this deck, and the infinite loop possibility would be always there.

Sorry for the long comment. Cheers!

Alright, so to make this a 7-8 I'd add in dredge cards; they fill your yard so fast. I kind of wish it gave counters to creatures as they entered not as it entered :( itd open up some really cool lines and offer a lot of good protection. Anyways, here are some ways to fill the yard.

Stinkweed Imp

Golgari Grave-Troll

Golgari Thug

Stitcher's Supplier

Altar of Dementia

Spawning Pit

Phyrexian Altar

Ashnod's Altar

As for combo pieces; a basic aristocrats strategy would be pretty easy; here are some cards if you wanted some ideas-if you want me to break down the line I will :)

Blood Artist

Zulaport Cutthroat

Carrion Feeder

Viscera Seer

Reveillark

Karmic Guide

Young Wolf

Vizer Of Remedies

Anafenza, Kin-Tree Spirit

Lesser Masticore
