The aforementioned equation is the ONLY game plan, aggro. There are some fun interactions and tools to be aware of, for example, Satyr Wayfinder to load the yard for a cheap Become Immense and Gather Courage all on a naked Favored Hoplite unblocked. T4-T5 one should have the win. I'm looking for ways to sneak trample and death touch in; any thoughts and upgrades are appreciated. Thanks in advance!!! - Buenzteiger
Hardened Scales is really for adding counters. The principle of this deck is robust EOT pumps. Hero of Leina Tower is interesting for a late game bomb; imo, sideboard-able.
Looking at the 75, things with wings may cause troubles. Maybe being on the aggro plan might put those things with wings as blockers... Have to see..
Great shouts -off to CT to test the cards.
Hero of Leina Tower is a personal favorite of mine. I wonder, Does she combo with Become Immense? Can delve just keep removing cards (beyond become immense's cost) to pay the x in Hero's heroic?
Seems like IF the X from hero became an additional cost for Immense, that it could work. Now that it is the next day and Im not reading through tired eyes, I dont think that is possible. but it would be so COOL!
msun: Knives scoop ice cream.
Highroller: No they don't, knives don't scoop. Spoons scoop.
msun: Well, knives SHOULD scoop icecream.
Highroller: We have spoons that do it. Moreover, the shape of a knife that would scoop ice cream would make it horrible for performing the functions of a knife.
msun: Highroller, you bring up spoons as though they were the utensil used for scooping ice cream.
Just something of note, a very similar deck discussion is going on here.
You can see my decklist there as well. We focus less on the heroic and more on beatdown, with cards like sunblade elf, boon satyr, etc. But we run a lot of the pump spells and seeker of the way.
I would go with the one drop flyer, as you want to be smacking them from T2, T2 smack with evasion better.
have at least 8 one drops to you can start the smashface!
Also, an extra set of spells for creature protection would go down nicely against burn decks/ any red splashed decks with lightning strike.
Great stuff. I agree with the flyers; thoughts on Ornithopter?
Troop(heroic) + Pump = Win.

More explosive with the flyers. Temur Charger shines with fun interactions, for example, T4 Loyal Pegasus with Soldier of the Pantheon on board. Cast Temur Charger morph, reveal Become Immense give trample cast w/ delve on Soldier of the Pantheon. GG.

Deck is lacking a strong finisher!!!
