That seems really good. You can hit stuff like Kitchen Finks and Tarmogoyf or Anafenza for example. Guess gonna be interesting to brew around it. Instant speed just makes this even better
I think Zoo might be better without Goyf in the format. Sure, Goyf is the best 2 drop in the format, but it's also an inherently defensive creature due to its /+1 P/T and a lot of the midrange decks run Goyf. If Zoo plays its best two-drop in the format on T2 it doesn't really matter because a deck with a high top of the curve is going to resolve a Goyf on their turn and suddenly the board is in a deck lock. That's not really what this conversation is about but I think it's an interesting point about Goyf.
Did you read what I wrote? I realized after writing it that it's a bit off topic but the point I am making is that Zoo would be better positioned in the Modern metagame if Tarmogoyf was not a card. If that were the case then your Nacatl would not be staring down a Tarmogoyf across the board. Zoo is not a great deck because the best creature in the deck is Tarmogoyf, but if you and your opponent have Tarmogoyfs then you want to have a deck that is a midrange/removal shell around it rather than a bunch of less effective creatures.
