Phalanx Leader

Creature — Human Soldier

Heroic — Whenever you cast a spell that targets Phalanx Leader, put a +1/+1 counter on each creature you control.

This has some real potential. Phalanx Leader with some additional buffs could make this deck sing. I would cut some of your higher costed cards for a playset. Check out Mana Tithe or Silence for some added protection.

I recommend Phalanx Leader Fabled Hero mostly with Auras, Instants, and Sorceries. For draw, I recommend Towashi Guide-Bot Puresteel Paladin Akiri, Fearless Voyager Sword of Fire and Ice and maybe Skullclamp

Changelog v2.0:

  • Changed Lagonna-Band Trailblazer to Simic Initiate and quantity from three to four.
    • ・It's functional and also frees up a slot for basic land by replacing a Llanowar Reborn.
  • Reduced Phalanx Leader to two copies.
    • ・Strictly better than the generic heroic effect, but it costs WW, and waiting on that can gimp an entire match. On top of that, all of my combat tricks're green, so having access to say, one of those per turn is going to slow down what you got out of it, anyway.
  • Increased Ainok Bond-Kin to three.
    • ・Deck is otherwise lacking in things that enter the field with proportional size to their cost, and, first strike aside, it has a lax 1W casting cost.
  • Increased Akroan Skyguard to three.
    • ・Easy-to-achieve casting cost for reliable creature, assuming you can get it to grow.
  • Reworked mana: dropped vivid lands, reduced Llanowar Reborn to three, added Fortified Village, added five forests and reduced plains by one.
    • ・Much better without waiting a turn. I guess you can use the vivid stuff for a poor man's five-color deck.

Akroan Skyguard and Arena Athlete might be good ways to get damage past blockers.

Phalanx Leader buffs wide, but makes your field more vulnerable to removal. can be expensive, too.

Every deck needs a good late-game finish/boardwipe too - what about packing two Chandra's Ignitions? You could even include a couple Tajic, Legion's Edge - the combination of Mentor and Haste along with the First Strike option makes him a very potent aggro card to use alongside Double Strike 2-drops. (Also, if you target him with the Chandra's Ignition, only your opponent and their creatures take damage)

KayneMarco - They do get exiled, but they make excellent attackers with any of the buff creatures (Leonin Lightscribe, Anax and Cymede, Phalanx Leader) and they can be made on opponents' turns so they can function as blockers against things without trample, I'm really excited for this card actually lol

Strive is an excellent way to ensure you're not missing out on heroic triggers on your other creatures when spells inevitably get diverted to Phalanx Leader . Launch the Fleet and Ajani's Presence are the best two options in white. If you don't mind running nonhumans, Vanguard of Brimaz and Tethmos High Priest could make Fight as One viable instead. More generic instant/sorceries could be Gird for Battle , Hope and Glory , and Tandem Tactics . Finally, if you prefer the Hero of Iroas , Kor Spiritdancer type of play, Spirit Mantle + Daybreak Coronet is a great way to push damage and Karametra's Blessing is a nice trick.
