Deck discussion for Zada Standard

Would be nice to include a description for your "5turn kill" for those who can't see it. I cansee it, just would be nice to use the description and how to play features of this site.

Titan's Strength costs {1} less than Brute Strength for the same power boost and with Firemantle Mage granting Menace, I don't really see the need for Brute Strength's trample, so I suggest swapping Brute Strength for Titan's Strength. Plus Titan's Strength has Scry 1.
I suggest taking Zada down to 3x. He's legendary, thus duplicates are dead in hand, but you still want to see him every game, so 3 is a nice sweet spot. With the extra slot open, I'd add one more land as 20 lands is too fee for your mana curve.
Speaking of lands, you need mana fixing. Evolving Wilds helps a lot, and you can still use Wind-Scarred Crag. Battlefield Forge is worth considering too.

I been playing with a few different possible builds havn't tested the defiant strike yet but its helps when I'm just using Expedite for its draw. still not completely sold on the Titans strength over the Brute strength but it has its advantages
