With the "Anthousa's Army" deck, use potent spells to help your heroes find their inner strength and defeat the enemy.

You'll begin the game by attacking with efficient early creatures, like Favored Hoplite and Wingsteed Rider. When your opponent begins to mount a defense, you can cast an instant, sorcery, or Aura spell that targets one of your heroic creatures and give it an extra boost on top of whatever your spell does. Instant spells like Giant Growth and Battlewise Valor are especially potent, because you can wait until the middle of combat to cast them on your heroes.

Aggressively boost your heroes early in the game so that you'll be able to take advantage of their permanent increase in size. You can use support cards like Pacifism and Vanquish the Foul offensively on enemy blockers to keep up the assault.

At the head of your army is Anthousa, Setessan Hero, who can turn your lands into additional attackers when you target her with a spell. Once you have five or six lands on the battlefield, you can usually afford to lose some to deliver a crippling assault.

If you enjoy commanding an army of heroes, the Theros set has more great cards in store for you. The planeswalker Elspeth, Sun's Champion will certainly inspire courage in your troops, summoning soldiers to the battlefield and boosting them with her powerful emblem. Polukranos, World Eater makes a monstrous support unit for your army, clearing the battlefield of several enemies at once. The enchantment creature Boon Satyr can boost your assault by bestowing its strength onto one of your heroes at a crucial moment of the battle.
