Jackal Pups are exciting, but I'd still prefer Goblin Vandals, instead.
Often, you'll play a first turn Goblin Vandal and it will just shut down
your opponent's game. They can't play second turn diamond, and end up
mana-screwed...
If I were to run Sligh, now, I'd probably make it like so:
4 Goblin Vandals
4 Mogg Fanatics
4 Ironclaw Orcs
3 Canyon Wildcats
4 Ball Lightenings
2 Viashino Sandstalkers
3 Lava Hounds
4 Incinerates
4 Kindles
4 Fireblasts
2 Hammers of Bogardan
1 Fireball
4 Sulfurous Springs
2 Cinder Marsh
15 Mountains
I would definitely have Hand to Hand in the board to deal with COP:Red,
and Forsaken Wastes to deal with Warmth and Gerrard's Wisdom.
Pyroblasts are probably a necessity with the apparent popularity that
Prosperity/Bloom will have... I'm not sure if Gloom is worth it, though.

: Hey all,
: Here is my post TE Sligh Deck. I HAD To build one because the sligh
: concept/deck is my favorite of all time. I figure some people have
: similar decks but noon has posted them so i thought i would. Goldfish
: tests show turn 4 kills consistently but it invloves critters so it will
: drop off a little with a real opponent. Don't worry about COP:Red. In
: the SB I have 2 Gloom,2 Worb, and 2 hand to Hand; Thats 6 Anti-Cop
: Cards. Also use Worbs v. Control and Gloom v. WW if you want. Try to
: save a Pyroblast for the Chill (+2 mana for all red spells) because that
: card WILL Hurt. They will prolly have to cast it turn two because if
: they don't their death could follow soon after. Anyway, Enjoy the deck,
: Its fierce.
