Quirion Ranger is a great 1 drop to find. I also like to play all the 1 mana dorks. They Make Turn 2 Yisan happen and can be tutored for his 1 drop. Elvish Lyrist and Elvish Scrapper (and their functional reprints) also make for some decent utility.
Courser of Kruphix also has nice synergy.
Maybe Krenko would be a good inclusion? Supports the token theme in red and gives another general option in the draft.
Reveille Squad is just Reveille Squad. But it should be something else. That card is not good, I'm finding. I could try him out as Outrider en-Kor. I'm honestly just running the combo for the gimmick factor. I probably shouldn't be, but I can't resist the rebel infinite.

There's still quite a bit I want to get, but it's functional for now.
Some comments on cards:
Heliod: His vigilance is fantastic. I've gotten so much incidental damage in with it because I could swing without fear of not having a blocker. He also beats hard, and we can turn him on/off on a whim (with rebel tutors and sac outlets, respectively). He's a beefy wall as well. I even got a win off of his cleric ability, and the cleric ability is fantastic since it lets you use your extra mana after being swept.
Blind Obedience: Of all the cards here, I definitely think you should at least find room for this. Holy crap is this card good in this deck. I've gained so much life off of extort triggers, and I've only played in 3-player games so far! It also makes the fort so much stronger. Not having to be scared of haste is a big bonus. Sweeping then going into Blind Obedience + Luminarch is also quite strong, I've discovered
Spirit Bonds: Very impressed with this card so far. Even just the first ability is quite strong. Extra blockers for excess mana is fantastic.
Elspeth: I think I'm just not a big fan of planeswalkers in EDH. I feel like I might cut her. Maybe I'm just not good at evaluating if the board is right to drop her on. Even if I try to set-up and protect her she seems to die anyway.
Just my 2c Thanks for inspiring me to make one of the most fun EDH decks I've owned! If you have any ideas/comments for my deck, I'd also appreciate it!
This is very much a pillowforting parfait-styled deck.
