Humans that grow faster than you can say CMC.

Cavalry Pegasus , say whaaaat? Have all my humans gain flying? I am down for that. And what's this? Phalanx Leader pumps all those humans that God-Favored General and Precinct Captain is putting soldier on the battlefield? Yes please!

Now a little birdy told me that with at least 4 mana, Phalanx Leader , and a God-Favored General on the battlefield things get pretty cool. Even cooler when you are holding onto a Glimpse the Sun God and a Gods Willing . On opponents end phase 3 mana goes to Glimpse the Sun God tapping phalax leader to trigger growing him and God-Favored General. The extra 1 mana can tap an opponent or Akroan Skyguard if you roll like that. Then on your turn you untap God-Favored General and pay the 3 mana for your 2 tokens. The magic now happens when you cast Gods Willing on the Phalanx Leader to grow all 4 creatures (5 with mr-thinks-he's-special Akroan Skyguard ). Phalanx Leader gets a protection oriented free pass attack as a minimum 3/3.

((A quick clarification from my first comment! PLEASE NOTE THAT PEGASUS DOESNT HELP THE TOKENS GAIN FLYING! Sorry, the shouting was a bit excessive. Copy and paste away! lil_cheez: Yes! Haha for once I was not deck building in a maniac frenzy. I did misread at first, but still built around the deck idea using all 2 drops that can be returned by Immortal Servitude and then all fly next turn from Cavalry Pegasus . The tokens just benefit from the Phalanx Leader as chump blockers or swarm against control.))

Okay so you have a bunch of guys, BUT THEY KEEP DYING! Oh no! What is one to do? Well bind them to an Immortal Servitude of course! They will love to keep coming back to fight for you! And now we have a draw option of Chosen by Heliod to help keep your Phalanx Leader targeted and tougher than the damn Mizzium Mortars//Bile Blight//Drown in Sorrow that the spoil sports try to cast. Naturally having a celestial weapon like the Spear of Heliod can be very handy.
