Hey, theres a 15-proxy vintage tournament this saturday right by where I live, so I thought I might play in it.
I know Aggro isn't the best choice for a vintage deck, but I absolutely refuse to play control, and this deck is fun anyways.  Knowing I won't win, however, I'd still like to make my deck as competitive as possible.
How does this look?

Mana Sources

1x Wasteland
1x Strip Mine
2x Forest
1x Stomping Ground
4x Windswept Heath
4x Wooded Foothills
4x Taiga
1x Mox Emerald
1x Mox Ruby
1x Black Lotus

1-Drops

3x Gorilla Shaman
4x Skyshroud Elite
4x Mogg Fanatic
4x Kird Ape
4x Tattermunge Maniac 2-Drops
4x Tarmogoyf
3x Scab-Clan Mauler
3x Tin Street Hooligan
3x Stingscourger

3-Drops

4x Magus of the Moon

Burn

4x Lightning Bolt

Sideboard

4x Red Elemental Blast
4x Shattering Spree
4x Pyrostatic Pillar
3x Tormod's Crypt

Any comments appreciated
Thanks

If you're bent on running a RG Aggro deck at this event but want to remain a threat, why not just netdeck the lastest TMWA list or run Goblin(e)s?  I would take either of them over your list here.  Just a thought.

Sorry, but I'm unfamiliar with 'TMWA'
Could you explain please?

Although I would like to stick to my list if at all possible...

New Shards Card.
Wild Nacatl
 {G}
Wild Nacatl gets +1/+1 as long as you control a Mountain.
Wild Nacatl gets +1/+1 as long as you control a Plains.
1/1

Splash white and you got a 3/3 for 1.  In addition to your 8x 2/3's for 1 and you "a lot"/"a lot + 1", for two.

I like fun aggro decks sometimes.

This is what I'm looking at.

1 Black Lotus
1 Mox Emerald
1 Mox Ruby
3 Skullclamp
1 Jitte

4 Gorilla Shaman
4 Tin Street Hooligan
4 Wild Nacatl
4 Kird Ape
4 Skyshroud Elite
4 Tarmogoyf

4 Seal Of Fire
4 Lightning Bolt

4 Null Rod

1 Strip Mine
3 Wasteland
1 Savannah
2 Plateu
4 Taiga
2 Windswept Heath
4 Wooded Foothills

The last list is running too many 1 CC stuff, you'd auto lose to chalice pretty much.

It's not like R/G would have a problem dealing with artifacts. I have 4 main deck answers (I guess 8 if you count Shaman who can deal with it if he's already in play).  And Ancient Grudge probably would make the side.

Plus, sometimes you just gotta take your lumps.
