What's even better than Azorius Hidden Strings heroics? Selesnya beat down! The creatures get bigger faster, the land comes out faster, and the trample and life link puts this deck over the top against other aggro decks.

Your Hero of Iroas ability to make auras cheaper helps a lot early when you want that 1 extra mana free for Gods Willing protection. The Hero of Leina Tower becomes exceptionally powerful after you've popped your first Ordeal of Nylea .

Selesnya Charm adds an amazing tool to GW heroics, the trample can push a Fabled Hero through for big damage, or you can exile a turn 3 Polukranos or turn 4 Demon.

This deck has tested extremely well against aggro and control, it can also be too fast for Bx to deal with, but could also be hurt by a Bx deck that draws 3-4 removals by turn 3. That's when you sideboard:

vs removal: 2x Ranger's Guile , 4x Mending Touch

vs DD, Stormbreaths: 2x Plummet

vs gods, weapons, connections 3xRevoke Existence

vs midrange aggro: 4x Pit Fight

Yes, most of the time the deck wins turn 5-7 and doesn't even get enough of a look at the opponent to sideboard.

So that could also mean some of the sideboard is redundant, it's what I'd usually go to against the common decks in meta but this deck has tools built in to deal with aggro, removal, and control even before sideboarding. Suggestions welcome!
