Which red 1 drop creature?
Standard Deck Help forum

I'm having trouble deciding between Zurgo Bellstriker and Monastery Swiftspear for my deck: Chandra's Colossus.
The problem I am having is this: Zurgo helps out both Chandra, Fire of Kaladesh Flip and Managorger Hydra with his dash ability. But with Taylor Swiftspear I can possibly do more damage because of all my instants and sorceries.
So can I get some help? Pretty please with a cherry on top!?
what Boza said, checked the deck and think going big into green like Outland Colossus is a bad idea if youre also playing Chandra, Fire of Kaladesh Flip. Atarka's Command works well fora chandra r/g aggro build, you can replace the ramp with much quicker things like Monastery Swiftspear, Lightning Berserker, and Dragon Mantle, all of which are insanely good with new chandra

Maybe I'm dumb, but in what way does Zurgo Dash help Chandra?

Dashing Zurgo counts as casting a red spell, which triggers Chandra's untap ability.

Well, the obvious answer is cut the honored hierarch (he is just plain horrible) you currently have and replace him with Swiftspear, though you do not have enough non-creature spells to make her worth it. Look into some 2-CMC cards is my suggestion.
