Deploy a huge army of Hoplites with this Tokens deck!

Launch the Fleet is the key card: take advantage of different "Heroic" abilities to become unstoppable.

Akroan Crusader + Launch the Fleet let you TRIPLICATE your creatures.

Launch the Fleet + Phalanx Leader pump your army.

Brimaz, King of Oreskos adds some cats while attacking or blocking.

Akroan Hoplite + Ride Down is the right combination for unstoppable attacks.

Could it be better? YES! Iroas, God of Victory prevents all damage that would be dealt to attacking creatures you control!

But you can earn the victory in another way: you can use Lightning Strike and Deflecting Palm to damage your opponent or his creatures directly, in addition to Purphoros, God of the Forge that deals 2 damage to him when another creature enter the battlefield!
