I made a heroic deck several months ago and it was pretty good. But I stopped playing with it and sold most of the cards. I am going to give it another shot now that dragons of tarkir brought some interesting cards as well as rebound. One problem I have found is that you run out of cards very fast, Defiant Strike and Ordeal of Thassa help somewhat but if anyone has ideas that are cheap draw spells let me know. I try to save my protection spells until I can dodge a blocker or removal, Control is very popular in my meta so I have plenty of it. Fabled Hero is my only 3 drop, at best he's a 50/50 double strike with Aqueous Form on him, at worse he takes a removal spell out of my opponents hand. I am really exited about Center Soul and artful maneuvrer as it counts as 2 castings but only takes up one spot in my hand. Please comment on as I'm hoping to make this as aggressive as possible.
