Mashup of Forest and Elvish Archers

I've had almost no basic lands when doing mashups. Here we have a green card being made EVEN MORE GREEN. Fortunately, it's not that green by modern standards.

How can we put first strike on a green card? Of course, against fliers! It actually makes sense, because lots of fliers are quite small, so this can trump them, whilst still being able to trade with a ground-bound 2-drop.

Although I worry we push the green flier hate too far. It makes sense mechanically, but we have green direct damage, green creature destruction. Can we have "target player sacrifices a creature with flying"? How about "counter target creature spell with flying"? More fight would help, since fliers are often smaller (although not always, you can plummet a giant angel if you want).
