At the SCG Baltimore, I got to table 79 or so. I played this guy with a UW flash deck and three top 8 pins on his playmat. Game 2 he scooped to havoc festival  out of my sideboard, and game 3 I stipped his hand with a rakdos's return  over top of a counter using reverberate  . It was pretty satisfying.

This. Good cards without support. flinthoof boar  is another.
don't worry. Bacon.dec will be a thing as soon as gatecrash lands. We just need this guy:
Digging Pig  3
Creature - boar 3/3
When Digging Pig enters the battlefield, search your library for 2 target boars with converted mana cost 3 or less and put them into your hand. Shuffle your library afterwards.
O.o I'm not sure Ranger of Eos  for  / is a smart design choice.
I'll settle for the Krosan Tusker  reprint when Wizards realizes that Cycling should be evergreen.

Cards I like that I'm not currently playing, but really want to,
Feed the Pack  + Tree of Redemption  - Especially in this world of lifegain, I don't know why I'm not going over the top with Tree of Redemption + Rhox Faithmender  .
Gutter Grime  - I know this makes me a "bad Player", but I really love this card. I just wish it works well with Slime Molding  .
Mentor of the Meek  There is an exalted deck that really wants one or two this card.
Liliana of the Dark Realms  I can't help but think she should be really good in a MBC deck. I just don't have the guts to build it.
Niv-Mizzet, Dracogenius  - Not playing because I can't find the right deck for it, and it disappoints me because I keep imagining Niv Mizzet sounding like Wile E. Coyote.
Guild Feud  - Not because it's bad. It really isn't! I just haven't found the right balance of creatures yet.
Wild Beastmaster  + Hamlet Captain  - Still contemplating how to make this deck roll. It has the potential for massive damage output, but it's a tad slow in setup.
Feed the Pack + Tree of Redemption is a really fun combo. I tried running in a deck with Trostani, Selesnya's Voice  . I had a game where I life gained to 33 playing Tree with Trostani on the board. The next turn I played a Thragtusk to gain to 38, switched my life total with Tree's toughness, sacrificed it to the pack to put out 38 tokens taking my life total up to 114 in the process. My trouble with Feed the Pack is that I really don't want to get stuck with multiple copies and as result end up not drawing it when I need it. Too often, Tree is just something for my opponent to fly over.
I too like Gutter Grime , but it seems poorly positioned because you have to have a lot of nontoken creatures and they have to die. There are too many cards that exile or return to the deck or hand in removal for this to be reliable.
I have seen Liliana of the Dark Realms used quite effectively in a Jund deck (actually I should say I have been beaten badly and repeatedly by a Jund deck) that features Olivia Voldaren  as the primary win condition. It is a pretty tough combo. She can hunt up Blood Crypt  and Overgrown Tomb  as well as the regular swamps. Activating her ultimate allows Olivia to easily hit and take control of creatures on the same turn. Liliana thins the dek to help find Bonfire and makes for a lot of damage when it turns up.

I'm working diligently on Beastmaster + Captain. Basically making a stompy deck here. Does this pile wish it had Overrun  ? You bet it do.
 Boasts?

You can have your overrun. It just costs 8 mana.
Also, anyone see the deck that won the Japan GP? I remember seeing the deck on Adam Prosak's stream a few months back. His reaction to it when he lost was pretty great.

Its okay, you can neuter it pretty hard with Rest in Peace and Supreme Verdict. But the deck has some decent game against Rakdos (until they start Sideboarding Rakdos Charm)
