This deck is very cheap to Mana Cost and makes a combo with Hanweir Militia Captain and Launch the Fleet.

Feel the power of your Soldier Army!

So first turn you can play Cenn's Tactician to be able to use a Land with Colorless mana as Blighted Steppe or Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx to pay his ", Tap: Put a +1/+1 counter on target Soldier creature." ability in second turn. If you got no Cenn's Tactician in first draw, cast Champion of the Parish and this one will be your Big Buddy (that if it is not canceled yet).

Second Turn, choose one of these two ways:

  1. try to cast Boros Elite and Loyal Sentry to get an Good attack next turn since Boros Elite will be a 3/3 creature;
  2. or if your opponent as Bigger Boys than you got, choose a great defence casting just a Loyal Sentry and add to him a counter using Cenn's Tactician ability, so he can block an additional creature.

Third turn:

  1. if you chosen number "1" in second turn, cast Launch the Fleet paying 3 mana, and attack with your 3 creatures;
  2. if you chosen number "2" in second turn, try to cast a one mana cost creature like Boros Elite, Champion of the Parish, Cenn's Tactician (good choice because his ability stacks) or Loyal Sentry and then cast Thalia's Lieutenant.
  3. If you chosen number "2" in second turn, you can even choose a Honor of the Pure and another creature that costs 1.

Fourth turn:

  1. if you chosen number one last turn you can probably put in battlefield Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx, and as you got 6 creatures in battlefield you can pay six mana because your devotion to white and cast one more Launch the Fleet. The total minimun damage in this turn is 12, but counting with the 6 damage in last turn you did, it gives 18 dmg to your opponent in two turns. Don't forget that Champion of the Parish or Boros Elite are Buffed, or they can have next turn flying if you cast Abzan Falconer, or buff all them with Honor of the Pure Doubling the tokens damage, it can be a "GG".

  2. If you choose defense last turn, think now about attacking, and adding some flying with Abzan Falconer. You can even use Hanweir Militia Captain to flip her with tokens or cheap creatures.

Fifth turn: For all of that ways start thinking in lifelink with Azorius Charm or using Blighted Steppe ability to ensure much more protection and powerfull troops. As you have a lot of life you can really thinking more aggressively. If you got a lot of Tokens and Cheap creatures use Mirror Entity ability to change all Power/Thougness of them. Or use Odric, Master Tactician to attack the opponent without blockers (remeber that if you cast Odric last turn you probably have not that much creatures on the battlefield).

Thanks for reading and watching my deck!
