Primadox reaction is very nice in this pool. I went GW, picking the obvious white cards (Odric, Serra,) and then brought in Captain's Call and Fungal Sprouting because of Odric. Glorious Charge is also nice in this context. Titanic Growth into Fungal is very nice. Rancor is a bonus.
Standard Pauper!

2 Prey Upon, 2 Pacifism, Odric... This deck just doesn't let the opponent have defenders:
This Deck was built in 0:08:48 Total Deck Size: 40
17 Lands
---------------
10 Forest 
7 Plains 
16 Creatures
---------------
2 Acidic Slime 
1 Arbor Elf 
1 Attended Knight 
1 Centaur Courser 
1 Deadly Recluse 
1 Duskdale Wurm 
3 Elvish Visionary 
1 Odric, Master Tactician 
1 Roaring Primadox 
1 Serra Angel 
1 Silklash Spider 
1 Spiked Baloth 
1 Vastwood Gorger 
7 Other Spells
---------------
1 Captain's Call 
2 Pacifism 
2 Prey Upon 
1 Rancor 
1 Titanic Growth 
With all the Elvish Visionaries, green and white just love each other here. Make dudes, drop Rancor on your 1/1's, swing, whatever. I liked the black, but its removal didn't seem better than double pacifism, and its creatures seemed worse than what white was offering (Odric, Attendent Knight, Serra Angel). I didn't see myself playing the exalted strategy, so I cut the Squire and second Spiked Baloth. I kept my creature count high to maximize Odric, but there's still room to move around in the sideboard. Fungal Sprouting and Glorious Charge (I do hate this card though) for further swarm, Second Baloth over Second Slime if their targets are weak, Kitesail when you need a Kitesail.

This Deck was built in 0:21:38Total Deck Size: 4017 Lands --------------- 8 Forest 8 Mountain  1 Hellion Crucible  13 Creatures --------------- 2 Acidic Slime 1 Arbor Elf 1 Bladetusk Boar  1 Deadly Recluse 3 Dragon Hatchling  2 Elvish Visionary 1 Silklash Spider 2 Spiked Baloth 10 Other Spells --------------- 1 Elixir of Immortality  1 Kindled Fury  1 Kitesail  2 Prey Upon 1 Rancor 2 Searing Spear  2 Titanic Growth I generally do not like having so few creatures (less than 16) but G/R had some nice non-creature spells. I also do not like having my 2 colors lopsided but G had so many good cards. Though there is more G than R, I kept an even balance of lands to be sure that I can get the mana for whatever color I need. Please reply with any opinions.
