I'll cast my vote for Boros Reckoner. He trades with pretty much anything on the ground, you can give him first strike at will, and you get value every time a bolt or a pyroclasm/volcanic fallout is sent his way. Also, a one-of Volcano Hellion is a real win con in a deck with 4x Reckoners.
Centaur healer is great vs other agro decks, that's why I have some in the board with Trostani. I don't run them main board, because I'm trying to avoid being as top-heavy as possible, and to set up the turn 5-6 kill consistently.
I tested this a bit vs a couple of my friends' decks. It's slower than Jund agro because I can't combo off of multiple Burning Tree Emissaries turn 2. All the flash creatures are great for evolving though, and the evasive angels at the top of my curve are tough to stop without a thundermaw (My friend's Jund deck only runs 4 Abrupt Decay main board).
One question I have: Should I run both Gavony Township and Vault of the Archangel? I have them both as a one-of at the moment, but I'm wondering if it would be better to drop the township for a third cavern of souls or something...
With all the Boros Reckoners running rampant, Abrupt Decay is better than ever. I'm trying to come up with an alternative to Jund agro, so I thought let's try Junk! Here's my starting point:
