Ash Zealot is always a favorite for standard aggro. As well as Rakdos Shred-Freak Or, you could turn 2 slap a Messenger's Speed onto Rakdos Cackler . And if you are using Prophetic Flamespeaker I would highly suggest using Mana Confluence . Or even sideboard flamespeaker, until you find a deck with the same colors that you have. Other that, great deck. +1

Thanks for The suggestions pbarrick94 Definitely putting Mana Confluence in pulled 2 on pre release.

Going to try and see if I can fit Ash Zealot in 2 cards over already.

rather Satyr Hoplite over Rakdos Cackler personally with all the multi unit target spells present for this deck.

i like it, tho replace one mogis with Purphoros, God of the Forge .... the 2 dmg burst will end games quickly

I'm not too familiar with aggro and heroic decks, but a card that sees a lot of play is Madcap Skills . Tossing that on one of your bigger hoplites is usually endgame.

Hi Zassalis would really love to add Madcap Skills its a great card

I use in my other aggro decks sadly its not in the theros Block.

For your combo, I count 10 damage. The line breaker does 6 intimidate, but the token would be 4 intimidate.

Coordinated Assault gives +1/+0 to 2 creatures :D so 12 after heroic triggers.

Akroan Line Breaker + Titan's Strength + Armed on Armed / Dangerous . Triggers heroic twice. Giving it +4/0. Then +3/1 with Titan's Strength and the +1 and double strike. Making it a 10/3 with double strike and intimidate. All for 3 mana (; correct me if my math is wrong though but surprise victory?

Let me know how this does at your local FNM. I may make a Grixis version of this featuring Strive and Battlefield Thaumaturge heavily. It gets an upvote from me... I think you may have a viable Agent of the Fates deck. Only thing id say is one more Mogis to smooth out his odds of coming out. If you've got 4 gods in there, you'll see one per game pretty much every time.

Not only that but you could use Blinding Flare to target your own creatures to trigger heroic. LOL seems pretty broken.

Tranquility that why its in there :D.

TheNinjaJesus used to use 2 of him in deck wanted to see if Purphoros was as good with the Akroan Crusader.

But think your right think I will change it back to 2:1.

Akroan Line Breaker + Twinflame + Coordinated Assault . 3 mana for 12 Damage.

Twinflame does not proc heroic on the copy is summons, so its 10 damage.

unfortunately there are not a lot of decks that are heroic based in standard, as control and midrange decks have a favorable matchup against them. This deck is also far too slow to play against midrange or control decks, you might win against aggro decks but that is about it.

I like Madcap Skills because you still get the heroic proc and the +3/+0 which cannot be blocked except by 2 or more creatures is really really strong.

Prophetic Flamespeaker is also an all around strong red card that can win games if unanswered.

I'm not sure about the Purphoros, God of the Forge in this deck, you have very few creatures so the 2 damage won't trigger too often, and you have very little red devotion in the deck (no red enchantments, all red creatures only 1 devotion each). I would take him out and put in another Bloodcrazed Hoplite or even a Mogis, God of Slaughter as all your creatures will contribute to the devotion, particularly the Agent of the Fates . I would also mainboard the Dragon Mantle in place of Rise to the Challenge and maybe Read the Bones , basically because I don't think you need the scry so much in this deck - chances are you will be drawing tonnes of combat tricks without scrying, but hey if it works then keep it in.

jaskamakkara Thanks for the comment think your right going to try

taking out Rise to the Challenge for Dragon Mantle .

Why not cut Mogis, God of Slaughter and Purphoros, God of the Forge for Mogis's Marauder and I know you probably want to make Theros only but Dreadbore is pretty good.

Mogis's Marauder is a great card but rather my gods got a 3-1 ratio of red to black devotion present in deck so don't think I would be utilising the ability to its fullest.
