Heroic

Heroic is an ability word introduced in Theros. A creature with heroic gives the controlling player powerful benefits every time they cast a spell that targets it. 
==History==
After Theros, Heroic is also featured in the other sets of the Theros block. The most common Heroic ability is to put +1/+1 counters on the targeted creature; five Green Heroes put more than one, whereas each color has at least one that does so.
In the return set, Theros Beyond Death the heroic mechanic was used on five cards, but without the actual ability. To ease learning the "mechanic", all five have the same result of giving creatures you control +1/+0.
Outside of Theros, <c>Tenth District Legionnaire</c> has effective Heroic, and <c>Feather, the Redeemed</c> has a broad semi-heroic variant. Both are , making it a seed for a constructed deck.
Heroic was one of the non-evergreen, non-deciduous ability words included in the Unfinity sticker sheets.
