Arrows of Justice targets creatures and Boros Charm targets the opponent whoops, but the indestructible or double strike is much more relevant I think

this REALLY doesn't look like midrange. try more control, like O-ring, Fiend Hunter and Banisher Priest.

Eh I'd argue that (I'm the brother)
All the creatures are aggressive, there's no man-lands which actually is a problem, and a good amount of removal. Sounds like midrange to me

but the thing is, almost all the removal is burn. IDK, it just isnt how I consider midrange to be.

I mean midrange technically is a mix of strategies usually. So there's definitely gray lines here. There's fatties and cheep removal so we delay the game the first few turns and place fatties and wreck face. I consider control to have less creatures (<10 sounds good) and lots of removal/counters so blue is involved. Cruel control comes to mind as a good example
Here's a cute little article on midrange. This doesn't fit it exactly and most don't but the creature curve starts at two so probably midrange-aggro. But hey thanks for commenting there's the possibility of going more control but I like how it's set up

Hey brotha (literally brother for those reading) modern needs strong early game, refer to Modern Format Primer - Banlist Update (19/1/2015)
I would make the following
+2 Boros Reckoner he's awesome he requires hard removal usually, and blocking creatures need more than 3+ their power in toughness to survive
+2 Boros Charm this card doe
+2 Lightning Helix Lightning Bolt with life can't complain
+# other creatures that dominate the board to give you superior presence
Cuts
Archetype of Courage he's not that impressive we can do better
Truefire Paladin same deal
Iroas, God of Victory 4 drops need to win the game or require answers, unless you go more creature based he'll just be utility.
Arrows of Justice for 3 mana this is way to expensive, bad excuse of a Boros Charm
Martial Glory yeaaa no
Madcap Skills unless we're going heroic this is lackluster, same goes for all auroras like it
Ordeal of Heliod unless you'll run your Sun Titan which is a fine finisher cut this
Boros Guildgate ew guildgates
Wind-Scarred Crag guildgates are a 2 on a 1-10 scales and this is a 3
Try for Sacred Foundry Arid Mesa they'll keep your mana in check.
Not sure about Deflecting Palm but it looks cool. Make sure to utilize untap
