Should go with some [God-Favored General] , [Launch the Fleet], [Brimaz, King of Oreskos] or [Vanguard of Brimaz] for swarm. Should try to get some [Temple of Enlightment].
For the heroic part... Maybe it's just the [Akroan Crusader] that should stay. What do you think? [Launch the Fleet] is good for swarm and heroic! [Dauntless Onslaught] and [Gods Willing] is also an option.
I want a deck that is based around [Iroas, God of Victory]. Aggro and swarm! ;)
Please, give me more help! Thank you!

Think this might help. http://www.mtgsalvation.com/forums/the-game/standard-type-2/standard-deck-creation/557050-anyone-else-building-iroas either focus on low cost cards for aggro (Rakdos) or cards that make tokens (precinct captain, akroan crusader) oh and you maintain want to look at Elbeth, Sun's Champion. She is a token making machine

Any thoughts about my ideas? I am just going Theros, BotG, and JiN! Thanks anyway! I won't go boros, just so u know...

Any good heroic cards or good heroic trigger cards? Help! ;)

Launch the fleet is good. Other than that is out of my expertise. Sorry

Going to take out 2x Arena Athlete , 2x Eidolon of Countless Battles and 2x Tethmos High Priest .
Add 4x Akroan Hoplite and 2x God-Favored General

A Gods Willing could be very useful here, and maybe even an Ajani's Presence as you may want less creatures and more heroic triggers.
May 13, 2014 8:02 a.m.
i'd keep in Eidolon of Countless Battles . even unbestowed, in a swarm he's a beast, ad devotion! pop him on your prophetic flame speaker and you've created a monster.
I'd take out the magma jets, or sideboard them, and up in Ordeal of Heliod for life gain, or Ordeal of Purphoros , that's devotion and a burn to a blocker or to the face. I'd try putting Chained to the Rocks in the sideboard and adding a Nyxborn Shieldmate or Nyxborn Rollicker to trigger your heroics and beef up the shorties at the same time.
strive cards are going to help you, like Phalanx Formation . pop that on a Phalanx Leader and your minis grow! Ajani's Presence can cover a couple creatures you don't want to lose, as well as trigger your heroic.
good luck.
May 13, 2014 3:03 p.m.
Life gain? I don't think that's necessary in aggro, but maybe Ordeal of Purphoros .
Nyxborn Rollicker is probably very good.
For the strive I think Launch the Fleet is the only suitable card for this deck because of it's low cost and it's swarm effect!
Thank you!

Actually, I think Nyxborn Rollicker isn't good. It is a bit too weak. It just makes you lose cards.
May 14, 2014 4:13 a.m.
are you generally trading w their blockers? I suggested the rollicked to beef up and hopefully not trade. but maybe the ordeal of purphoros is better in this build.
how do you feel about Akroan Line Breaker ?
May 14, 2014 10:06 a.m.
The breaker is a bit squishy and 2/1 for 3 mana is bad... I know his heroic. I think it is weak and doesn't fit in this r/w. For mono red it can be good though...
mightyz says...are you generally trading w their blockers?
Doesn't understand that. I am not able to choose if I get blocked or not and by which creature.

Cards to replace!
Brimaz, King of Oreskos , Flame-Wreathed Phoenix and maybe Godsend .
Will try to get better lands, another Launch the Fleet , two Akroan Hoplite and another Eidolon of Countless Battles ! Please don't remind me! :)

I think you could switch an Akroan Phalanx for another Akroan Hoplite , maybe even two. Phalanx's ability is expensive, and you'd get more use out of several cheap creatures, especially with something like Akroan Crusader and Cavalry Pegasus on the board.

Anax and Cymede would be great too, especially if you switched a pair of Titan's Strength for a pair of Coordinated Assault . Since you have very little Heroic creatures you'll want to maximize your odds of hitting as many as possible as often as possible - for example via multi-targeting. The Akroan Hoplite would probably like First Strike more as well.
June 1, 2014 9:01 a.m.
Thanks for the advice! Will test Anax and Cymede ! :) And the other things...
June 1, 2014 10:46 a.m.
I want to switch out Soldier of the Pantheon for something red...
June 4, 2014 12:35 p.m.
Should replace Magma Jet ! It doesn't fit in the deck! HELP!

Looks pretty decent, but why are you only sticking to theros block stuff? Trying to make it rotation-proof?
Parth7 says... #1
Hmm. Decks with Heroic cards tend to run more enchantments/aura/instants in order to trigger them. On top of that the only thing swarming about our deck is Akroan Crusader. Exactly what kind of deck are you planning to build?
