I'd add Fabled Hero to this deck. Yes he's a 3 cast but you can get him out turn 3 and buff him enough to have a turn 4 win.

Some thoughts:

• Livewire Lash does nothing for your here - equipment won’t trigger your creatures as paying an equip cost is not “a spell targeting a creature”. Added to that this card is pretty weak anyway.

• you have way too many creatures for a deck that cares about spells - i’d be ditching Dawnbringer Charioteers and Fabled Hero at the very least.

• you currently have almost no way to mess with the opponents board state, which puts you in a really dangerous position, as your deck is slow and they’ll just be able to overwhelm you. I’d suggest at least 8 cards being dedicated to removal.

thegreatgodloki well Sunbaked Canyon costs 18 dollars, I'm going for more of a budget deck, but I will think about it. As for Satyr Hoplite not too sure I have Favored Hoplite and Fabled Hero has proved to be pretty useful, as a distraction, or damage. but I will put it in my sideboard and give it a shot. Thanks for the suggestions and the upvote!

Happy to see your take on Katilda & Lier. I was thinking they could make for a cool Heroic commander for stuff like Fabled Hero and company, since most of them were Humans in Bant colors. Basically a nostalgia idea, since one of my first decks was a GW Heroic Humans deck back in like 2013-14.

I'm currently working on Slimefoot and Squee as a Saproling/Goblin Tribal/combo amalgamation that still needs some polishing before publicly publishing.

I do love a glass cannon! A couple of ideas that came to mind for additional buffs were Kiln Fiend and Fabled Hero. Kiln Fiend doesn't fit the soldier sub-theme, but can get big quickly and the low toughness is less of a cooncern with Chance for Glory. Fabled Hero is a soldier, that can get pretty big, and the double strike is a nice finisher if you can get it trample (or clear the way).

I hope that helps! Good luck with the deck!

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

Nice deck (+1), have you considered Archon of Sun's Grace? It is pretty cheap and might be a better alternative to Ajani's Chosen in the sideboard as the tokens have evasion. Also Favored of Iroas seems better than the Fabled Hero in the maybe board as it does the same thing, but you don't have to target him. Hope this helps.

As Neotrup said, activated abilities are not spells. So Fabled Hero will not get a +1/+1 counter.

As an aside, Heroic not triggering off of abilities is the only thing that makes it not game breaking in formats where activated abilities exist. Nomads en-Kor and Akroan Crusader would be infinite hasty tokens on turn 2. Turn 1 with some minimal jumping through hoops. But they foresaw this and made it only trigger from spells.
