So one of the best ways to play that I've seen Iroas, God of Victory is to play it very aggro, creating as many tokens as possible and swinging them with Iroas in play. Using instants during combat that inflict damage is one of the best ways to get value out of your cards (i.e. boardwipes, like Starstorm )

Other ways to improve your board presence is to throw down some enchantments like Dictate of Heliod or Glory of Warfare to buff up your troops. The great thing about this deck is that is recovers from losses quickly. Lost your army to Damnation? No worries! You'll be back on your feet in no time with mass token generation like Krenko, Mob Boss or Martial Coup.

This deck plays well, but gets crushed by control players and never seems to have a huge board presence that I was hoping to get out this deck.

As always, suggestions are greatly appreciated!

Disclaimer: Pod/House rules includes no mass land destruction and 20 infect damge instead of 10, so please keep that in mind when making suggestions, thanks!
