Friends forever, Mardu-style!

After theme, I think my favourite thing about a deck is its mechanics and feel. I like a deck that has early drops and plays smoothly. Ambitious Farmhand is one of my favourite cards!

So I think Clues are really fun. They don't feel as broken as Treasures, and you'll always have something to spend mana on.

2 mana commanders are wonderful. Having that guaranteed early drop feels fantastic.

Also, I love Boros and I love attacking. Sophina loves attacking. We've got a lot in common.

AFAIK pretty casual budgety deck overall - no kill combos, and outside a couple of cards, nothing costs more than $5.

Feels like a grindy value deck with a lot of Clue/mass artifact synergies. I've tried to include as many of the red and black "deal damage/life loss based on # of artifacts" cards as I could, with a splash of white blink synergies.

Just need to cut some cards... Probably cut a few ramp and some of the removal?
