ETB Triggers
Purphoros, God of the Forge: This card is the main reason why I wanted to splash in red. His ETB burn in this deck can win the game alone and then you add in his anthem power buff and indestructibility...just bananas!
Impact Tremors: A good, cheap ETB pinger than no one ever seems to worry about until they see how much life they are loosing because of it and if you get two out then people start scrambling to deal with them.
Auriok Champion: This ETB trigger helps stabilize the deck throughout the game. Early on you tend to get a little suicidal with all the fetch and shock lands. Also helps offset the downside to Bitterblossom.
Token Generators
Lingering Souls: This card is a sleeper, most opponents forget about it until you flash it back to produce a blocker they were expecting or to finish the game off.
Bitterblossom: A great, steady token generator that has no downside if your Champion is on the field.
Raise the Alarm: This is one of my favorites to pull out of nowhere for some good chump blocking. Its one of the strengths to playing with tokens.
Secure the Wastes: A good one-of to have in the deck because it can end the game or provide the blocking you need by adding a ridiculous amount of tokens at once.
Elspeth, Knight-Errant: This is the perfect planeswalker for this deck, not only does it up itself for a token, but can do the same for a creature boost. I love attacking with a pumped up Auriok Champion.
Sorin, Solemn Visitor: A good one-of because he provides a nice attack boost and lifelink to your tokens. and if need be, generate one.
Removal
Lightning Bolt: Easily the best burn/removal in the game.
Path to Exile: As a token player I don't like fatties, and hate facing them even more. Enter the cheapest fattie removal in Modern.
Thoughtseize: One of the best early game disrupters in the the format. Let you cherry pick a threat to be removed and gives you a look at their hand to know whats coming. Knowledge is a powerful tool.
