Angry 'derm
         The next deck I'm going to look at is a deck called angry derm by its author.  The deck tries to build up mana quickly through mana acceleration creatures and then use it to punish the opponent by either producing too many threats or destroying their land.  Here's the initial list:

Angry 'Derm

Creatures (22)
4 Masticore (Artifact/Creature)
4 Avalanche Riders
2 Priest of Titania
4 Blastoderm
4 Birds of Paradise
4 Llanowar Elves

Spells (14)
2 Saproling Burst
4 Plow Under
4 Arc Lightning
4 Stone Rain

Land (24)
2 Dust Bowl
4 Rishadan Port
4 Karplusan Forest
4 Mountain
10 Forest

Sideboard (19)
2 Phyrexian Processor
1 Splinter
2 Creeping Mold
3 Uktabi Orangutan
2 Rack & Ruin
2 Flameshot
3 Hammer of Bogardan
4 Boil
         To be utterly honest, I like this deck better as a mono green deck.  I think it carries over most of its cards, and can actually benefit from dropping some of the red cards for more effective green ones.  So lets start with the creature base.  Since the deck has no problems being extended it seems, this allows us to get a better mana(-creature) base for a mono-green deck.  Here's what I'd like to see:
4 Llanowar Elves
4 Fyndhorn Elves(replace birds, their clones of llanowars)(ice age, common)
4 Priest of titania(better with more elves now)
4 Deranged hermit(serve to replace saproling burst...more expensive but their advantages are cumulative and they stick around)(urza's legacy, rare)
4 Blastoderm
3 Masticore(with 4 you draw them a LITTLE bit too much, contrary to popular belief, masticore is NOT always good)
2 Rofellos, Llanowar Emissary(urza's destiny, rare)

         And now the spells for the deck.  Since we lose our red land destruction, we'll add green versions that are equal or better.  We can't really replace the red damage, but masticore should be able to take car of every creature we see, or occasionally we might just overrun the opponent.
4 Plow Under
4 Creeping Mold(replaces stone rain and protects against artifact and enchantments also)(Visions and 6th, uncommon)
3 Winter's Grasp(replaces stone rain)(tempest, uncommon)
         The land will only need the slightest tweak, being that its a mono-green deck now:
4 Rishadan Port
2 Dust Bowl
18 Forest(better for rofellos)

Sideboard:
4 Splinter
4 Thran Lens(against cards like perish and circle of protection)(urza's legacy, rare)
4 Kavu Chameleon(against mono-blue and burn, as you need a creature with large toughness)(invasion, uncommon)
1 Masticore(You want this in any matchup where your opponent has a lot of small creatures, and adding 1 will increase your chances of drawing it)
2 Uktabi Orangutan(because you'd rather kill powder kegs with this than splinter)

         I'm sorry that this turned out to look so much like a trinity green deck that you've probably heard about, but I feel that its the better deck, and the fact that people knew they were going to play against it was the only reason angry hermit and son of hermit, as they're called, were ever built; to beat it.  Well, good luck, and I hope I helped!  See you in a Flash!
