    Default Hero of bladehold and angelic benediction attack alone rulings magic

    does attacking alone with Hero of Bladehold trigger an Angelic Benediction even though she is putting two attacking soldier tokens into the battlefield?

    This is actually covered in the Gatherer rulings for Angelic Benediction:

    10/01/2008 Some effects put creatures onto the battlefield attacking. Since those creatures were never declared as attackers, they're ignored by exalted abilities. They won't cause exalted abilities to trigger. If any exalted abilities have already triggered (because exactly one creature was declared as an attacker), those abilities will resolve as normal even though there may now be multiple attackers.
    So, yes, Angelic Benediction will still trigger. This applies to the exalted ability as well as the tapping ability, as both have the same trigger ("Whenever a creature you control attacks alone").
