This is a minigame deck that can pump creatures super fast with +1/+1 counters and if all else fails just straight up win the game with Mayael's Aria. It's mainly G/W splashing B/R for a few cheap 1 drops that can get huge really quick. Bruse Tarl, Boorish Herder is crazy for putting on a good hurtin while gaining lifelink on a huge creature, while Reyhan, Last of the Abzan is just great for keeping your +1/+1 counters floating around on your board. Winding Constrictor + Hardened Scales + Corpsejack Menace + Panharmonicon with all of the different ways to get counters on the board can make for a crazy board state. Special shout out to the mass removal spell in Phyrexian Rebirth for that troubling time when you have Mayael's Aria out but your opponents are able to effectively block your onslaught. Killing off everything and making that one big butt you need to proc the win on your turn.

More Shoutouts:
Aetherborn Marauder - Counter Collecter
Beastmaster Ascension - Makes your creatures huge for 3 mana.
Bloodhall Ooze + Slumbering Dragon - Amazingly cheap and effective creatures
Selfless Squire - For the time your opponent Craterhoof Behemoth's you.
Dark Depths + Thespian's Stage - For just being you!
Bishop of Rebirth + Skullbriar, the Walking Grave + Sun Titan - Recursion Tech.
Chainer's Torment - For making that early game 20/20 if you're lucky enough.
Elite Scaleguard + Champion of Lambholt - For getting damage through.
Polukranos, World Eater + Vigor - Monstrous to make ol Polly huge.

And to all the other ridiculous cards in this deck, I salute you.
