Mill seems to be on the decline, and I've been feeling the lack of removal. I'm currently testing with:

-1 Woodland Bellower
-2 Fleetwheel Cruiser
-1 Reclamation Sage
+2 Exquisite Firecraft
+2 [+] Collective Defiance

We're not really an instant speed deck, so sorcery speed removal is fine. These can hit creatures, walkers, and face if we need some burn.

Also considering whether I'd prefer 2x Blighted Gorge to 2x Foundry of the Consuls. It's a little bit harder to interact with, but a little worse in a long game.

What do you folks think of this deck?

3 x Longtusk Cub
3 x Voltaic Brawler
3 x Brazen Scourge
2 x Electrostatic Pummeler
2 x Lathnu Hellion
2 x Bristling Hydra

3 x Blossoming Defense
4 x Galvanic Bombardment
4 x Titan's Strength
3 x Harnessed Lightning
4 x Larger Than Life

2 x Smuggler's Copter
1 x Chandra, Torch of Defiance
1 x Nissa, Vital Force

3 x Aether Hub
4 x Timber Gorge
2 x Rootbound Crag
2 x Cinder Glade
8 x Mountain
4 x Forest

-2x Larger than Life
+2x Flatwheel Cruiser

Oh wait, LTL is for that Pummeler tech.

_Me and Tshirt tested this deck and found there was too much R mana and too much pump spells. This is my upgrade.

3 x Longtusk Cub
3 x Voltaic Brawler
3 x Brazen Scourge
2 x Electrostatic Pummeler
2 x Lathnu Hellion
2 x Bristling Hydra
1 x Verdurous Gearhulk

3 x Blossoming Defense
4 x Galvanic Bombardment
3 x Harnessed Lightning
4 x Larger Than Life

1 x Arlinn Kord
1 x Chandra, Torch of Defiance
1 x Nissa, Vital Force

1 x Evolutionary Leap

2 x Smuggler's Copter
1 x Skysovereign, Consul Flagship

3 x Aether Hub
2 x Rootbound Crag
2 x Cinder Glade
4 x Timber Gorge
6 x Mountain
6 x Forest

I hope someone can help me improve my ramp deck. I'm 61 cards because i don't really know what to cut except for lands.

Creatures (10):

2x Sylvan Advocate
1x Nissa, Vastwood Seer
2x Tireless Tracker
2x Zendikar Incarnate
1x Plated Crusher (this over Gaia's Revenge because it works with ignition)
1x Omnath, Locus of Rage
1x Ulamog, the Ceaseless Hunger

Spells (19):

4x Galvanic Bombardment
3x Harnessed Lightning
1x Kozilek's Return
2x Collective Defiance
4x Nissa's Pilgrimage
3x Zendikar's Roil
2x Chandra's Ignition

Planeswalkers (2):

1x Chandra, Torch of Defiance
1x Nissa, Vital Force

Lands (30):

10x Mountain
10x Forest
2x Cinder Glade
2x Rootbound Crag
1x Foundry of the Consuls
1x Rogue's Passage
4x Evolving Wilds

My ideas for this list:

30 lands is way too many. Most Ramp decks want somewhere between 23 and 25 lands, depending on how many lands they can fetch from the deck. Definitely cut the non-basics except for Evolving Wilds as well as maybe the 1-of Rogue's Passage. (The fixing will be done with ramp spells). Personally, I'm not too fond of Zendikar Incarnate either, but it's not completely terrible.
I'd definitely include 3-4 Explosive Vegetation; especially when running as many landfall payoffs as you do. Woodland Bellower is a very nice payoff as he can find your Advocates and Trackers (as well as maybe a 1- or 2-of Reclamation Sage).
If you have her, Chandra, Flamecaller is also amazing doubling down as pretty much anything you need. Some other decent payoffs would be Combustible Gearhulk or Ulvenwald Hydra, which can find your Passage.

-2x Zendikar Incarnate
-1x Zendikar's Roil
-3x Forest
-3x Mountain
-2x Nissa's Pilgrimage
-1x Kozilek's Return

+1x Chandra, Flamecaller
+4x Explosive Vegetaion
+2x Rolling Thunder
+1x Woodland Bellower
+1x Greenwarden of Murasa
+1x Plated Crusher
+1x Reclamation Sage

---------

This is just a jist that I suggest.

Meta is fast. Sweepers don't answer vehicles. Control is risky and too often kills itself due to mana and consistency issues. I wanted to make a deck that is both consistent, fast and also durable in a longer stretch.

I evaluated a few options - Bant tempo, RW vehicles, UR burn etc.

Bant, being 3 colors, can often have mana issues. It is decent against mid speed decks but fails against creatureless control or full speed aggro if no reflector mage T3.

RW vehicles, is fast and ok with consistency. It runs out of gas when a sweeper is cast, or vehicles get removed. When nut draw happens, Toolcraft into Copter or Scrounger is almost unstoppable. However, in case UR burn gets something like a lightning axe, harnessed lightning, Fiery Temper and a bunch of Bombardments the deck is almost dead.

UR burn, very good against both full speed aggro as well as creatureless aggro. The draw spells are superb with take inventory and glimmer. The deck has a few weaknesses - Scrounger, Bristling Hydra, Woodland Wanderer, Green hulk, and resolved planeswalkers. They don't show up very often but when they show up, UR burn is dead.

Finally I picked this RG energy deck I liked so much from the beginning of the season. The deck has bigger threats on curve than RW aggro (Brawler vs Motorist, Hellion vs Thalia etc) so 1. beatdown can happen faster vs control 2. vs aggro it can transform into a defensive midrange deck and grind them out. It can include most of those things that UR burn hates to see Scrounger Hydra Hulk and walkers. It has more gas / mana sinks thanks to tracker and recruiter. The energy synergy makes it more consistently taking advantage of harnessed lightning removal, Aether Hub for the scrounger splash and bunch of others hellion, hydra etc. The vehicles package copter cruiser skyship are nightmares to tapped out control and walkers.

So, as you see, the deck is so all-around in tourney that has almost nothing to fear. From the experience, the MVP cards are

Brawler - The energy source, the beater, the winner.
Hellion - When I draw them I never lose. No better beater than these. Similar to Brawlers, can attack into the toughest defensive creatures Thing in the Ice / Thermo Alchemist / Sylvan Advocate.
Harnessed Lightning - Removal for pretty much anything with energy support. (Round 2 against Batman's Elder Deep-Fiend + Round 4 against Giocher's Torrential Gearhulk were both game winning plays.)
Hydra - Many decks simply don't have answer to it.
Pia - The abilities are very versatile and aggressive. Pia to some extent represents the whole deck's idea. It is balanced. It can go aggressive by going wide (thopter token), going tall (+1/+0), unblockable, mana sink in late game (+1/+0), board stabilizing if needed. It's one card people don't realize how good it is until they play with it - exactly like this entire deck.

I've been playing it for a few days and that's a great list Woodland. Tks for sharing. Only switched the swamp for a red/green tapland.

one swamp is for scrounger activation. with help from the 4 evolving wilds, we can get 1+4+3 = 8 black sources in total. Once we've got double G and double R, evo wilds can fetch the swamp. We've got 17R and 18G sources. Don't really need a RG tap land. If you swap out the swamp, an untapped mountain would be my preference so you get 18R 18G

Lol I've played more than 20 games and didn't get that.

The times the swamp appeared when I needed a forest or a mountain made me change.

Scrounger activation is not that irrelevant, actually. However, I can see why you shy away from Swamp; you want to be able to keep some 2-landers but you can almost never keep 2 lands if one of them is a swamp.
If you want to go a middle-ground route, I'd consider Smoldering Marsh; still gives you Red and has a good chance to enter untapped (especially with Evolving Wilds). Gives you 5 sources, which might be enough. Think I'd definitely like it better than the GR tapland.

I actually thought about including Hanweir Battlements for Haste ability but colorless mana idk...

My experience with colorless in this deck - I used to play 2x reality smasher with 2 hanweir battlements + 1 wastes. Mana was not very reliable. Joly suggested me putting a couple utility lands but I still prefer the slighty more consistency.

Since I've just joined the Steam party I don't yet have all the cards on this account. I managed to grind out the SOI set with the starter box from which I was able to build this RG Werewolf deck from. I built other decks but they didn't live up to my expectations. I hit rank 40 lastnight with this on steam so it must be good! ***Built only from Starter Box & SOI***

High five! I also just switched over from Xbox a couple weeks ago. I can never find opponents anymore on Xbox. Steam I find an opponent every time in less than 20 secs. It sucks starting over. I built Socur's deck with budget replacements and made it all the way to 40 upgrading with actual pieces as I went. Finally just got the deck 100% yesterday.

I have been playing this list since forever with decent results (climb is slow, but present), sadly I don't seem to be able to sneak anything new in the list, see if you have any tips:

Played this deck and stayed on rank 40 for a while, it quite easy to use and very efficient.
Only problem is, it's very weak against heavy control decks with a lot of counter/kill/wrath etc. But it still have chance, do as much damage as you can before being wiped and use Exquisite Firecraft to finish the game.
