New deck, always looking for advice on how to improve any of my decks.

I came across Darien, King of Kjeldor at my LGS and decided that I needed to build him a deck. This is what I came up with... still working on getting some cards.

Pretty much does what Darien decks do. Makes lots of little soldiers and then turns them into super duper soldiers. I currently have 7 cards with anthem effects Honor of the Pure, Dictate of Heliod (now with flash!), Angel of Jubilation (added bonus turns off sac outlets), Spear of Heliod, Marshal's Anthem (brings creatures back from the graveyard too), Caged Sun (mana flare for me!), and Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite.

There are a couple of other ways to beef up the soldiers as well. Cathars' Crusade is such a nice card here. "Hit me for 10? ok, I'll put out 10 11/11 soldiers and put 10 +1/+1 counters on my other creatures." The other is Archangel of Thune + life gain cards, the best would probably be Resplendent Mentor.

I've got City of Brass and Staff of Nin just to deal a damage to myself to make a soldier. Always important to have soul sisters here as well. I need to pick up a Soul's Attendant to go with the Soul Warden and Suture Priest.

I've got a small pillow fort suite of Ghostly Prison, Windborn Muse, and Sphere of Safety as well, because when Darien is out your opponents typically need to kill you with 1 hit, so the little pillowing helps to make that more difficult to do.
