Her's my new Monday Standard Build! Makes your opponent cry beacuse your creatures will just grow Grow GROW! Can't kill them once! The ultimate tempo! Plus takes advantage of Sac effects.

Creatures: 23

4 Young Wolf
2 Demonlord of Ashmouth
4 Strangeroot Geist
3 Hound of Griselbrand
4 Butcher Ghoul
2 Howlgeist
4 Pyreheart Wolf

Spells: 13
4 Farseek
4 Abundant Grouwth
2 Altar's Reap
3 Tragic Slip

Lands: 24

4 Evolving Wilds
10 Forest
6 Swamp
4 Mountain

Make sure you keep hands with two or three lands, hopefully two forests or one of each color. You want to get a creature out turns 1,2, and 3. Then you'll have a little time to rest.

Most likely no more than 20 dollars, then you can splurge for the mana base if you want.

24 lands plus 4 Farseek seems overkill, especially since the curve isn't too high (apart from Howlgeist). Also, what do you think of Blood Artist? With all the dying, those triggers can really add up. I like the Altar's Reap, as it's a perfect response to a Pillar of Flame.

The Farseek is actually a mana fixer. Plus, Howlgeist needs to get out as quickly as possible. Combo with Pyreheart Wolf, and you have a huge unblockable creature.
