Notes:
This deck used to be the most hated in my play group, but has lost its luster, and I'm looking for ways to rebuild that fear. Any suggestions would be very appreciated. This deck's directive is to turn small creatures into huge ones, gain life, and keep everyone else on lockdown.

I would look to white (as it is your main colour) for some power cards to do what your synopsis said.
Namely look for {hero of bladehold} and {elesh norn, grand cenobite}
They do cost a bit (to buy if you don't have em) and they are high enough on the cmc to only run one or two of each, but they will do what you are after really well.

Also maybe look to swapping out the {soul wardens} for {suture priests}

TBNL

Take a look at the Boros Tribal deck I just put up if you want to see some straight-up R/W action, they're are plenty of cards in there that could go in here

I would love the {Hero of Bladehold} and {Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite} in this deck. I may be getting the hero soon, but people overprice Elesh, and for good reason. The Suture priests are a good idea.

And TBNL, I will, thank you.
