Made a Boros mostly humans deck with the exception of two little gobbos

Fetchlands Checklands and Shocklands all worth investing in but don't just shell out for them immediately just build this up over time. I recommend Proxies if people don't mind and your not planning on going into competitive immediately. If not just throw in standard lands and replace them in this order Checklands > Shocklands > Fetchlands. Not personally a fan of needle spires.

The Main grunts in this deck are Champion of Parish, and Boros Elites, the Monastery Swiftspears are for quick pokes and surprise damage when combined with lightning bolts and boros charms during combat. When a creature on your opponents field gets a little to big for its britches there's always path to exile. Everything else in the deck buffs these grunts and makes them do more work, Medics provide indestructible, the gobbo's give first strike and trample the silver blade paladin's give double strike. Use charms mainly for damage but they can also provide utility if you don't draw into a medic or desperately need double strike to finish someone off. Bolts also double as spot removal so don't always use them to burn your opponent.

Ideal starting hand is to have a red and white mana in hand a champion of parish and a few other cheap humans to play with it. Play champion of parish and beef it up with more humans, Creature priority works like this Champion of the parish > Monastery Swift Spear > Boros Elite > Thalia's Leuteniant because he can give multiple +1/+1 counters to all your humans rather than playing him first and trying to tank up just him. Worry about legion loyalist, medic and paladin after getting these guys out as they're main goal is just to buff the meat and bones of the group and they're very vulnerable on they're own.

Keep in mind this is a very aggressive deck that aims to win the early game, it will struggle if your opponent sets up on you there is essentially no removal in this deck other than damage. It is also very vulnerable to mass removal so don't throw down all your weenies at once and not expect them to not get wiped.

I'm fairly new to deck building so if you want to drop me suggestions I'm very open to ideas on how to make this deck better.

Updates Add

Added 4 Soldiers of the Pantheon took out 4 boros elites Reduced to maybeboard suffered from WIN MOAR syndrome.

Added Lightning Mauler in place of Thalia Heretic of Cathar I just never seem to be in a situation where I would need to play her or I draw into both copies.

Added Vantage and Cavern of Souls x2 Removed 3 Clifftop Retreats. I noticed I was starting to clog on clifftops a lot so I'm cutting down to see how that works I was long overdue for Cavern of Souls in there anyway.

Potentially adding RIP x2 to sideboard / maybe board unsure what to take out. I recently got a very good deal for a play set.

Potentially Swap x2 Lighting Mauler for x2 Thraben Inspector
