Looking for any reccomendations for a list I'm looking to build up for some Vintage.  Before I go dropping money/my good trade fodder on this deck I want it as tuned as possible.

Creatures:
4 Magus of the Moon
4 Simian Spirit Guide
4 Rakdos Pit Dragon
4 Gathan Raiders
3 Arc-Slogger
2 Akroma, Angel of Fury

Spells:
4 Chrome Mox
4 Chalice of the Void
4 Blood Moon
4 Trinisphere
4 Seething Song

Lands:
4 Ancient Tomb
4 City of Traitors
11 Mountain

It's fairly obvious what it does.  Turn 1 City/Tomb, Mox/Pitch Spirit Guide, Morphed Raiders/Morphed Akroma/Magus/Blood Moon/Trinisphere, or Song into Pit Dragon/Slogger.   Baring any of that it's just City/Tomb/(Mountain + Mox/Spirit Guide) for Chalice for X = 1.

Slogger, Raiders and Pit Dragon seem par for the course as far as pwerful, early beaters go.  Raiders and Dragon usually play well together and Slogger helps me use all those cards I'll never draw.

Akroma is there mostly to be something of a stunt double for Raiders, but if I draw into a hand of City/Tomb, Spirit Guide x2, Song, Akroma + 2 non-threats/disruptions, I have no problem going Turn 1 Akroma, Turn 2 morph her, swing for 6.  And I wouldn't turn down a late game hard casted Akroma since she dodges counter magic.

8 Blood Moon effects shoud make a lot of mana bases cry the first few times they see me, and Trinisphere and Chalice round things out nicely.

Huh so it is. Last I remember it was banned in Legacy but legal in Vintage. Guess I have 3 open slots.
