Raging Swordtooth
Creature — Dinosaur
Trample When Raging Swordtooth enters the battlefield, it deals 1 damage to each other creature.

I get that and Fury would be more useful here if I had more Red cards. If I replace Tremor for Fury I can only Evoke it by discarding either Marauding Raptor or Raging Swordtooth which leaves me with very few options and it might even just sit in my hand if none of those two are drawn in a game. I think I'd rather just keep Tremor and use dedicated removal in Path to Exile or the Bolt

I think Temple Altisaur is useful to mitigate damage especially from Marauding Raptor and from combat, but I agree 4 copies might be too much. I don't see much point in using Fury for removal trading 2 cards for one, when I can just slap a Lightning Bolt for that role. I'll maybe replace 2 copies of Altisaur for 2 Raging Swordtooth to enable more enrage and offensive presence, but other than that I think the deck is good as it is overall

Right off the bat I want to say how cool this deck is! I really enjoy how the Dinos all synergize into a pretty solid strategy.
With that said, I have to agree with seshiro_of_the_orochi to remove Temple Altisaur. It really doesn't do much to alter the game state and doesn't do well in a fast format like Modern. I would cut all 4 of those and cut 2 of either Tremor or Seismic Shudder to replace with 2 Raging Swordtooth and 4 Fury. They both help to further your game plan and can act as removal, which this deck wouldn't mind having. All in all, cool idea.

Temple Altisaur is pretty defensive, and I think it isn't all that great in that field. Maybe consider Raging Swordtooth instead?

SpeedOfLightning - Gishath Right? You cast him and suddenly games are 3v1!
Always fun to see how others build a similar theme deck as I like some of the different additions you have. I would definately recommend adding in Forerunner of the Empire. He adds a Enrage trigger you may choose to activate whenever a dino enters to field AND allows you fetch a dino to your hand (Wakening Sun's Avatar just in case). Another great potential add is Rampaging Ferocidon. Good way to completely shut down lifegain decks and token decks, both of which are run commonly at my LGS.
Otherwise, how have Bellowing Aegisaur, Burning Sun's Avatar, Raging Regisaur, Raging Swordtooth, Territorial Hammerskull, Thundering Spineback, and Snapping Sailback been? I had some of those in previous iterations of my deck but felt they were a little lackluster and dropped them.

Some thoughts:
-
i’m surprised Ripjaw Raptor isn’t in the deck, as it’s one of the best dinos out there, especially backed-up by cards that can let it fight. Similarly, Ranging Raptors is better than most of the other dinos you’re currently running.
-
you should defo be running the full playset of Savage Stomp.
-
your mana curve is waaay too high. Look to run some lower-cmc cards.
-
you’re currently running what i would consider to be a bunch of “trash dinos”. I’d suggest removing the following: Snapping Sailback, Thrash of Raptors, Raging Swordtooth, Cherished Hatchling, Crested Herdcaller. I’d also consider Raging Regisaur pretty “meh”.
-
other cards to consider adding are Drover of the Mighty and Rile, though you’ll get your biggest upgrade by adding a third colour to the deck (white) - there are loads of strong dino effects in that third colour.

Hey Man! Cool deck idea, perhaps I can help a bit.
First off, both Pyrohemia and Scourge of Kher Ridges as well as any way to recur them (in case they are destroyed or the board is wiped) are probably best here.
Obviously Firespout , Pyroclasm , Crush the Weak , Fiery Confluence and Anger of the Gods are good options for you to ping or clear boards. Some of the odd ones are Hail Storm and Magma Vein . Chaos Maw and Cinder Giant are cool options here as well.
Fights are great if you pick on smaller creatures, Gruul Ragebeast and Magus of the Arena come to mind here. As far as other creatures go, Raging Swordtooth is cool too.
Devastate is pricey but lets you build a board first. I'm not sure if Sporeweb Weaver is on your radar or not, but I hope it is now!
