Still getting a case
Wish I could afford one, sticking to 2 boxes, excited for a bunch of this stuff

Sticking to no boxes and just singles because i dont really buy many packs

Just because there is just so much value in the set. I'm doing u/w so like ill be able to sell off so much of the hv cards

I'm thinking an American Heroic Midrange (I might go Azorius or Boros instead). It would work a lot like a white weenie deck and would focus on Heroic cards that give bonuses to all of my creatures, like {Phalanx Leader} and overwhelming my opponents with a lot of medium sized creatures. Of course going to run {Frontline Medic}s, {Boros Charm}s and/or {Rootborn Defense}s for survivability, don't want to get board sweeped.

I'd think Bant looks best, {R} isn't seeing much heroic...

How about {boros reckoner}?  You have red and white, you have to run 4 of him.  H is the red white {thragtusk}.

To Taysby-Yeah, i'd probably run a few of them but I was just listing the basics.

To Mlerner-Red has a lot of combat tricks and spells that would trip heroic and some of the heroes I was thinking of are {Arkroan Crusader} and {Labyrinth Champion}. Red would also give me the ability to run {Assemble the Legion} and {Purphoros, God of the Forge} could be really nasty in a deck like this.

Would {weapon surge} work with heroic?

Not when overloaded. Overload doesn't target

you would need something that targets, like  {Comet Storm} but preferably something that buffs instead of doing damage

{Swift Justice} is amazing with Heroic. It could save your creature (with first strike), gives him a slight bonus (+1/+0), give you lifegain (lifelink) plus whatever bonus the Heroic gives you. Its too bad Bloodrush doesn't work with Heroic though.

Well what if a card said "target each creature target player controls"

Would that work?

Yeah.
The wording on that is weird though, for simplicity they would say each creature target player controls, it would be easier to understand

Sorry to say this, but shouldn't this be unpinned now that Theros is fully spoiled and a Born of Gods stickied up?
