Any ideas for better consistency and if you dot know how the nine nine happens just ask I'll explain
Why not more or any enchant auras for hero of iroas ?
He's there for a good start for triggers. No auras cause the point is to distribute counters onto strong creatures which he is one of the better two drops in that color
Sorry can you explain the T3 9/9?
Turn one can be anything hardend scales or Sunblade elf or scry land. Turn two hero. Turn three satyr grovedancer, put counter on hero makes him a 3/3. Swing then play gather courage target hero 6/6. Then another one making a 9/9. Also could be bigger if hardened scales is out.
Satyr grove dancer's trigger is "when it enters" not "when you cast this". By then it is no longer a spell and is instead a creature. That would not trigger heroic. Making him an 8/8, not 9/9

Satyr puts a +1/+1 counter on target creature making it a 3/3
Oh duh, Hero of iroas is already a 2/2, not a 1/1. My bad lol carry on
It's all good. I farely aggro I guess. Pretty consistent meaning it gets the damage in early and stays strong. Just needs some improvement and I'm not sure what exactly
I need help real fast. So I played this deck at fnm and lost to {banishing lights} and {suspension fields}. Which sucked! Other than that I went 4-1 taking 3rd place. I just need some help as to where I can fix that. Also a fear of mine is {crackeling doom}. Any suggestions to avoid these problems?
{Rangers Guile} Works {Naturalize} or {Erase} can help too
What about {crackling doom}?

What about it? Nobody plays it lol and if ppl play it the only way around it is counter magic it's a problem that your colours (in standard) can't solve

Pray. Or there's {Negate}, {Stubborn Denial}, {Dissolve} and {Dissipate}.

It's all I could think of.
Exactly GW has 0 options vs C Doom in standard (currently)
Even that guy that gives you Hexproof doesn't work bc of C Doom is each
What if my side board was able to change my deck to use stubborn denial. As in land switches and all. I don't use the sideboard at all. So I have the space
You could also add in creatures with Flash, like {Boon Satyr} or {Hushwing Gryff}. I always loved Hushy in SB. Potentially gives you other sac outlets if you're in a pickle and would rather keep something else.
you need a normal SB bc changing into Bant colors makes you mana very awkward. Your SB should be like this:
2-3 {Huswing Gryff} vs abzan as it stops {Siege Rhino} and {Wingmate Roc}
4 (God's WIlling} vs decks with heavy removal
2-3 {Mortal's ARdor} Lifelink is very underated, and can help you squeak by a burn deck
2-3 {Banishing LIghts} you need stuff to kill their stuff like Polukranos looks like a bad matchup
rest can be {Erase} if youre really scared of Banishing Light
I have the gods willing main board sorry I updated the deck. But I've played seige Rhino and they aren't a problem I don't mind the life loss because around that time I'm swinging a lot and they are on the blocking side. The hooded hydras are in the side board along with two setessan tactics and 2 flooded strand 2 temple of mystery 1 temple of enlightenment 4 stubborn denial 1 bow and 1 island

If you side into {U} have 4 Mainboard {Mana Confluence}
No need the side board works very well to where it is and the scry lands in sb are very vital
You want toeliminate mana screw it's not consistent the way you're going about it
How is it not consistent
6 {U} sources in the SB means that you won't consistently draw a {U} source. That's why you need {Mana Confluence} in the main
By turn 6 will be s 100% chance of pulling a blue source and with the fetches thinning my deck and shuffling increases the odds of coming across a blue source

So naive lol unless price is an issue (which I get) your deck needs 4 mana clonfluences
No I have the confluences I just have statistics to back up my idea to where I don't need to be paying life to cast things every game. I don't play that much life gain so it's vital to keep as much as I can
You're the aggro deck though lol who cares if you win with 1 life or 1,000 life it's the same thing lol plus play confluence mb allows you to bluff a lot more
I agree with Mattao
