Stromkirk Bloodthief
1.5 Last time we saw this was in a way more vampire-heavy set and it was not very good. It's probably going to be worse here. The stat-line is bad and the trigger is surprisingly hard to get.

Claws Out
1.5 // 2.5 If you're good at going wide and you have like 4+ cats, this'll be worth playing for sure. If you're not lowering the cost and don't have enough creatures in general, it's unplayable.

Garruk's Uprising

Apothecary Stomper

Helpful Hunter

Doubling Season

Quakestrider Ceratops
2.5 This is a huge vanilla creature -- so huge that I think it's actually going to make the cut in most Green decks, even if it doesn't do anything other than attack or block.

Pack 1 Pick 3: Mischievous Pup
Grappling Kraken
3 It's expensive, but it has a very strong landfall trigger. Once it's in play, each land you draw becomes a removal spell -- so you don't really care if you flood out.

Needletooth Pack
3.5 This is a great Morbid trigger. Getting it once is plenty strong, and if you can set it up on other turns too, you're going to win.

Tolarian Terror
1.5 // 4 If you're in a spell heavy deck like UR, or a UB deck that's good at milling itself, the Terror is going to be a super powerful card that can often end games.

Squad Rallier
2.5 The stat-line is a bit underwhelming, but that activated ability is exactly what you want in the mid-to-late game. It's some serious flood insurance.

An Offer You Can't Refuse

1 This doesn't impact the board much on it's own, and even if it's giving you food, finding a turn where you can sink a bunch of mana into it and use it's ability is going to be a rarity.
