Lol, good synergy to make this Phalanx Leader realy big!-) You Need more than 1 Devoted Druid and/or Workhorse.

Knarf, these aren't bad or anything, but you could do much better. One thing wrong with half of these is that the counters don't stay. They are instead removed in response to the activated ability that triggers them. As far as this one, it's fairly obvious that counters could be abused, but that doesn't really exploit them due to the fact that it relies on being targeted by a spell to activate it. But in my opinion, these aren't near some of your best combos submitted on this forum

Scratch the counters don't stay comment. You could still do better, though.

I agree with you. By the way, did you read "Lol, good synergy ..."?

In mono white the first choice exploiting the new Heroic ability would be flickering ward, but this idea has been posted already together with Fabled Hero.

Do you have any Suggestion for Heroic Combos beside buyback spells and Flickering Ward like Auras?

I would use Totem Armor Enchantments, Harm's Way or Test of Faith.

Drop the mana producers, add memory crystal. 2 mana to repeatably add a +1/+1 counter to every creature you control by casting anoint over and over is still good, and single color.

Actually, yes. That will be in standard. Cipher triggers say they are cast, and strionic resonator copies triggers. If they are targeted with the original and the copies, they'll go infinite. And seeing as prowlers helm is a card coming out, any creature you control can't be blocked aside from by the 5 mana wall in blue, which is the only wall being released in the set up to this point. Not sure of a way to abuse bestow, though.
