Deck discussion for Selesnya's Heroic Stardard

Depending on how much you want the flash, I think Trollhide might be a better bet than Feral Invocation.
Also:
-2 Ordeal
+2 Hero of Iroas

4 Hero of Iroas is really important.

The reason for I didn't put 4 hero of iroas was because this deck don't have so much Auras. I'm thinking about it, maybe i'll put some more Bestow abilitys, like Boon Satyr. I'm thinking about more 2 Eidolons on deck. Will it be too much? And the Hero of Iroas, four on this actual composition will be fine?

Reap What is Sown is nice for triggering up to 3 heroic effects at once.

Yes, now that you said I thought about it. It's a good option, i'll think about it, thanks. :D

Heroic only triggers once per spell

You're talking about the same heroic ability. But Reap What Is Sown gives a +1/+1 counter for up to 3 creatures. So, if you have 3 creatures with Heroic ability, and gives one +1/+1 counter for all of them, you'll activate the Heroic ability of the 3 creatures. So, Reap What Is Sown, a single card, will activate 3 Heroic abilitys. But from 3 different creatures.

You are missing some very powerful commons for this deck in the form of giant growth and Phytoburst, both of which were why I made my own GW Heroic deck. Mind you I wasn't based around the Eidolon, but I was able to kill turn 3-4 pretty efficiently. Also you could use some Temple of Plenty and Temple Gardens to help your mana base, since you are a deck that wants to hit your opponent very quickly, lands like selesnya guildgate and unknown shores are either too slow or don't work as efficiently as the lands I suggested.

These Temples are quite expensive. I'm trying to do this deck (Yes, i'm building it) cheap. But Temple of Plenty is certainly an option soon. This Instants you said, i thought about it. Some good Instants, but I don't know... Is it better than the auras I have?

Yeah significantly better, because they are more aggressive, which seems like what you are trying to be! :) Yeah if you don't want the shocklands that's understandable, but the Tempe of Plenty will help you ship later lands to the bottom of your deck and let you get to more combat tricks! :3

Where is the sunbond. That and ordeal of Heliod are such a nasty combination

Yeah but in a heroic deck, you are looking to kill your opponent as quick as possible, and while I think sunbond is bonkers good in some decks, I don't think it is in this one because that combo is too conditional on having both cards.

-2 Ordeal of Heliod
+2 Armored Ascension
-2 God's Willing
+2 Brave the Elements
and replace some things with dauntless onslaught or forced adaption

I wanna stay Standard, so Onslaught and Armored Ascension aren't options.

He is in my sideboard. I like the double strike. xD

I would definitely try to add as many boon satyrs as you can. It's pretty ridiculous with heroic.

I'm thinking about it. That Flash ability plus his Bestow... Quite nice on a Hero of Leina tower to Counter an enemy's move. :D

I would definitely mainboard Reap What is Sown over Feral Invocation. It is the same cost for more boost and more targets. I'd also consider running 3 Hero's and 3 Phalanx Leaders because the 2 white may make it difficult to cast the Phalanx Leader consistently. Finally, Indestructible has a pretty high casting cost and you are only running 20 lands, so I'd suggest replacing the Indestructible with Seleysna Charms or Brave the Elements/Gods Willing.

I changed. The diference between Feral Invocation and Reap What is Sown, is that Iroas made Feral Invocation has a lower cost to cast. That's why i'm trying to stay with more Auras.

True, but with only 2 Heros in the deck, it probably isn't worth it considering how much you can potentially get out of Reap. Also, Reap allows you to spread the love a little, which is important in this type of deck because creature control can put you way behind if you put all your eggs in one basket.

Another nice card to consider is Warrior's Lesson. When you are enchanting creatures left and right, you hand is going to get empty pretty fast, so it would be nice to have a little draw in the deck. Worst case scenario, you still get 2 heroic activations for 1 mana.

I have to agree, because hero of Iroas is most likely the best +1/+1 counter heroic card there is. Definitely use four, and while reap what is sown may not be your style, you still might want to try out warriors lesson, even if it's in sideboard, just to test it for a game to see how it works. One kind of instant or sorcery (or four total) that costs only one green couldn't hurt to try, especially if it keeps your hand stocked.

I didn't noticed Warriors' Lesson. You guys are right. It's quite useful. I thought about the problem that i could run out of cards to play. It's a nice option. I'll find a space for it. And a third Iroas switching with Phalanx is another good idea. Thanks guys!
