Deck discussion for Boros Battalion Standard

As far as I can tell, the only part of this that may need tweaking (at your discretion of course) is creatures.
1. I would drop the number of Aurelia's down to 1. You don't want a six drop floating in your hand at a time of crisis, and usually by them time she hits the field, the game has either been over for awhile or it's game over in your favor.
2. I would drop Champion of the Parish. You aren't really running a human heavy creature base, so he won't be as handy to you as you may think.
3. I would drop Tajic down to 2. A four cost 7/7 indescructible may sound nice, but that only goes off when he's attacking with others, which you need to make room for cheaper critters in this deck.
4. I would drop a Spark Trooper (bringing you to two). It's a beautiful thing, but it only lasts a turn, and you don't want to leave yourself wide open longer than you have to.
5. If price is an issue, ignore this bullet. I would get two more Reckoner's. It's too great of a Boros card to not have 4 of in a boros standard deck.
6. To compensate for the creatures i've recommended you take it (assuming you don't get the 2 reckoner's) I'd either get a playset of Legion Loyalist, or finish out the playset of the Halbediers, Vaishino Firstblades, Skyknight Legionnaires, and Boros Elite.
7. Take a look at Aurelia's Fury, see if it's something you would like to use in this deck.

Other than this man, it looks great!

Hey thanks for the comments.

I have to agree with quite a bit of what you have said, and you are right about the Reckoners, I would love to have a playset but they cost too much for me at the moment!

I will have a tweak and am playing the deck in an event next weekend. I will see how it goes!
