The point is to have a lot of big creatures get bigger. Massive, massive creatures + Mayael's Aria = fun. And if you get one counter on Chameleon Colossus, its a easy win, double its ability with 8 mana = auto-win. Or if you don't have that much mana, gain 10 life each turn till you do.
Intimidation Bolt is pretty cool, but I'm thinking of maindecking Fallout and using it as a board-in card. Its just too awesome to be going against an exalted deck, take down Rafiq and hose all attacks for the turn.

I like the idea of Volcanic Fallout maindecked, also, Intimidation Bolt is not that awesome, you have the bigger dudes, you WANT them to attack you! Mayael's Aria is... subpar. Seriously. You'd be better off with 1 more Colossus and perhaps 1-2 Ajanis. Trace of abundance is also not that great, I'd try out Branching Bolt (taking our BOTH Cloudgoat Ranger AND a pesky flier? Yes please!) or maindecking Naya Charm (tap them eot, swing for the win).

Aria is sub-par? Uh...I haven't seen that. I've seen them pair with Colossus to bounce back with 10 life a turn.

I'd rather run Wall of Reverence and actually get to block something. :P Not to mention Wall of Reverence is not subject to Celestial Purge, one of the most played sb cards right now, some are even maindecking it.
