This is a deck concept that has an iteration in a human based way but I wanted to give up the tribal restraints for more consistent power and T4 wins (on the play). Deck is below with an FNM tournament report from last Friday.
Game 1: I didn't get to stick many creatures onto the board as I would've liked because they were countered or Magma Spray'd. Torrential Gearhulk resolved as I was trying to attack for lethal (he had 6) and he Magma Spray'd my Honored Crop-Captain and blocked.
Game 2: He didn't find any Gearhulks after using all of his removal on me. He played Dragonmaster Outcast from the side and I shock'd it at his end step. He wasn't happy at all. I turn 5'd him with no issues.
Game 3: This was more lopsided for me until the end. I had 6 lands and resolved an Ahn-Crop Crasher. On board I had Combat Celebrant and Bloodlust Inciter. My opponent had an untapped Gearhulk. I swung with all, doing 8 damage and bringing my opponent to 12. I was at 9 at the time with a Glorious End only in hand. He had a wandering fumarole and he had two cards in hand. He decided to animate the fumerole and swing with both for lethal and I played Glorious End. He sided out all of the negate he mainboarded. Next turn, I top decked Hazoret. I casted her and swung for lethal (Combat Celebrant was not exerted my last turn).
Game 3: I sided in Magma Spray to exile the Blisterpod he would get and the embalm-able creatures he would play. I won turn 6. Similar curve to above, adding Glory-Bound Initiate and Kari Zev, Skyship Raider to the mix for lifelink. Kari Zev was the MVP of this match-up. Blocking was never good in his favor with my creatures going wide.
Match 3: Vs GB Energy (my buddy sleeved this up)
Game 1: I just went wider than his deck did much earlier. Turn 6 win. Ahn-Crop Crasher made combat terrible for him, forcing blocks from unfavorable creatures. I shock'd to kill him off.
Game 2: He curved out on me. Attune > Cub > Snek w/ Blossoming Defense backup. I just couldn't keep a creature on the board with him using 4 Fatal Push in this game.
Game 3: I sided in Skysovereign and it came up for me. This game was very very close and then I misplayed. I played Skysovereign, shot down a snake and then swung with it and shot down a Glint-Sleeve Siphoner on the same turn. I had 8 left and he had 16 before that swing and I left him with 7. Creatures I had was Ahn-Crop Crasher, Hazoret, Skysovereign and Bloodlust Inciter. He had Bristling Hydra and Longtusk Cub. I shouldn't have swung out because the next turn, he cracked back and killed me. If I would've kept two creatures back, I could've won the following turn.
Match 4: Vs UR Colossus w/ Fling
Game 1 I curved out. Game 2, he had 2 Sanctum of Ugin out and resolved the 10/10 colossus three times. I didn't have enough creatures to keep the onslaught back and he beat my face with 10/10s and then he used fling
Game 3: Bloodlust > Kari Zev > Ahn-Crop Crasher > Incendiary Flow, Honored Crop-Captain > Hazoret
He used Kozilek's Return after I swung and didn't realize Kari Zev had 3 toughness.
That's it. I'll be using this again on Friday. Let me know what you guys think about the deck below. It's fast, relentless and can get under most decks with a ton of damage before they realize what is going on.

Match 1: Vs Control
Game 1: I didn't get to stick many creatures onto the board as I would've liked because they were countered or Magma Spray'd. Torrential Gearhulk resolved as I was trying to attack for lethal (he had 6) and he Magma Spray'd my Honored Crop-Captain and blocked.

Match 2: Vs Abzan Rites
Game 1: Inciter > Honored Crop-Captain > Ahn-Crop Crasher > Goldnight Castigator. Win.
Game 2: He was able to swarm the field with creatures, resolved an Annointed Procession and Ormandahl'd me to 0.
Game 3: I sided in Magma Spray to exile the Blisterpod he would get and the embalm-able creatures he would play. I won turn 6. Similar curve to above, adding Glory-Bound Initiate and Kari Zev, Skyship Raider to the mix for lifelink. Kari Zev was the MVP of this match-up.
