This is something I threw together at random. It's not supposed to be any sort of competitive deck, just a deck of cards I want to play with, primarily Might of Oaks.

The Pouncing Jaguars can suck, but I discovered I'm short 2 Elvish Lyrist and 2 Wild Dogs! I also have just 2 Cradles.

4 Vine Dryad
4 Llanowar Elves
4 Pouncing Jaguar
2 Elvish Lyrist
2 Rofellos
4 River Boa
4 Albino Troll
4 Llanowar Sentinel

4 Rancor
4 Might of Oaks
1 Berserk

4 Elvish Spirit Guide
1 Crop Rotation
4 Land Grant
10 Forest
2 Gaea’s Cradle

Wild Dogs would be better. Just didn't put it in because I found the Jaguars first (they suck here) and because I keep thinking of Bolts.

What about Skyshroud Elite? They might be your best bet, depending on the environment you're gonna play this in.

Skyshroud Elite would be very good; unfortunately I play against too many people with just basics. (I also discovered I just own 1!)

The rest of those were on my list, but they're far too weak except for Rogue Elephant.

This deck still has a few problems and some parts don't work too well together. It definitely needs 1 more Cradle, and Rofellos isn't working here.

Llanowar Sentinel and Arena are funny, but I confused these and Rofellos with an older build I made that had more forests! :)

You might try one of these:

Quirion Sentinel
Multani's Acolyte
Scavenger Folk (if you play vs. problematic Artifacts)

Lotus Mox: Quirion Sentinel is good, but it's a point of burn if your hand isn't right, so I'm not quite sure about it yet.

Multani's Acolyte's echo is sick, and I already have trouble with Albino Troll.

Scavenger Folk is still not better than Uktabi since it can be killed before it loses summoning sickness.

If you want to play Quirion Sentinel you might need more 1-drops i.e. Ghazban Ogre, Wild Dogs(worth the risk IMO), Seal of Strength and the heavy Rogue Elephant.

I should playtest Quirion Sentinel and see if the Priest of Gix effect is worth it, definitely. Maybe some goldfishing.

However, I have to caution that Seal of Strength is NOT a good card here.

You lose the surprise factor, and green is inflexible enough without telegraphing the punches.

Wild Dogs is probably in there, and I think it's better than Pouncing Jaguar, but I don't think 8 of these cards would be a good idea.
