Although Assault Strobe is awesome at 1 mana, its sorcery speed kind of irks me. Temur Battle Rage, while 1 more mana, is instant speed and grants trample in most cases (heroic triggers resolve before the spell that triggered them). So I'd move it to main board.
Coordinated Assault is awesome. For 1 mana it targets 2 creatures, doubling the number of heroic triggers :p

A few more creatures couldn't hurt. I ran a GW heroic deck for a while in Standard and the worst games for me where the ones that I didn't draw a creature. Balance of creature to targeting spells is the biggest problem here. Too many either way and you risk sitting with problems in most of your games.
Akroan Skyguard is good because it has flying. This one was one of the main reasons for most of my wins.
If you can work a few more duals into the deck, Phalanx Leader would be an awesome addition. Its double white does limit it a lot.
If you're not hell bent on +1/+1 counters, Anax and Cymede is a frigging awesome legend.
Another route is to populate the board with token creatures (which would benefit from Phalanx Leader and Anax and Cymede). Akroan Crusader and Vanguard of Brimaz do this well.
I know heroic is the theme here, but you may also want to consideradding a few Prowess creatures to the mix. Monastery Swiftspear; Seeker of the Way; and Monastery Mentor are probably the best options.

Yeah I try to just have one creature on the battlefield at a time and just protect it so I'm adding Hyena Umbra. I might switch out Brute force for Titan's Strength just for the Scry 1.
