Maybeboard


Boros aggro deck based around the ability "Double Strike" and abusing it.

Each creature has double strike. All other cards support/abuse this.

Honor of the Pure means all my creatures should be white, and provides 2 extra points of damage per creature.

Loxodon Warhammer does wonders with double strike. The "Swords of" equipment would be great too, if you aren't concerned about budget. Sword of Fire and Ice is probably the best, followed by Sword of War and Peace.

Spirit Mantle makes creatures unblockable as well as giving 2 extra points of damage (or 4 in the case of Fabled Hero).

Madcap Skills provides 6(!) extra points of damage as well as some evasion.

Brave the Elements either protects your creatures or enables a game-winning swing.

Path to Exile helps clear the board. Mana base is more white than red, swaying me from Lightning Bolt, and I think life gain hurts this deck more than ramp, so I opted out of Swords to Plowshares. Chained to the Rocks may be worth considering. More Arid Mesas would need to be included in that case. Lightning Helix could also be included, but the mana curve is so low that the extra mana isn't usually worth the 3 life.

Sideboard has not actually been playtested.
