MTG Combo: Tajic, Blade of the Legion + Worldslayer

HowlingFoxGPH on Judgment Day: Avacyn the Purifier EDH [PRIMER]

TheRedGoat My guess is, his deck is designed for his current meta and the rules they are using. Or maybe, he just does not want to disclose publicly the exact contents of his deck. I have my own deck of Archangel Avacyn  ^Flip and it was initialy based on Daedalus19876 AVACYN deck. However, on my playgroup, this deck gets murdered pretty much most of the time at turn 4 or 5 with my current meta (This is 1v1 btw) then a 40-50% ratio of winning against a multi. At 1v1, if you survive by turn 5, chances are, you win, then at multi, this does not have a "1-turn kill all trigger". Basically, you'll have to decide on killing only one. Either the one with the lowest life, or the one who is the biggest threat. In my meta, when i am on the aggressive play, ill be able to kill just 2-3 out of 5. When i go defensive stance, just chilling, somebody else will be able to set-up and go combo crazy win.

Due to this, I had to make some changes of my own and had to add some other wincons. Not to mention my playgroup are compliant with the current Multi/1v1 EDH rules and banlists (Though sometimes we go leviathan).

Anyways, I was actually one of those who suggested the Aggravated Assault but when he answered me, he referred to another card. Aggravated Assault + Sword of Feast and Famine has won me a lot of games especially when the equipped creature has natural evasion and/or my opponent/s is/are tapped out.

On other notes, i had removed the following cards:

The global discard draw spells for the reason that making my opponent draw seven cards at my expense does not appeal to me very much. Wheel of FortuneReforge the Soul

In order to compensate with the draw power of the deck, i had to add these two:m1. Nahiri, the Lithomancer - defense = 1/1 token, utility = get equipment from graveyard or hand to play is awesome with Sigarda's Aid possible wincon = an indestructible +6/+6 sword with double strike.Draw = 1/1 token + Skullclamp is three cards drawn per turn.

1. Skullclamp - i pretty much attach this to any of my creatures in play that are considered high valued targets or auto-equip with Nahiri, the Lithomancer's +2 loyalty. Or +1 of Elspeth, Knight-Errant or Kjeldoran Outpost.

In order to survive against full superfast aggro-combo may it be elf, goblin, humans, merfolk, skeletons, slivers, wizards, zombies, etc. I needed to rely on low casting cost global creature damage such as:PyroclasmAnger of the GodsWrath of GodDay of Judgment - probably will replace this with Whipflare

then,Authority of the Consuls - need lifegain in order to survive 5 to 7 turns (to establish stability) and also delay the swarm of attacks. I replaced Mark of Asylum for this.

I also had to remove creatures that are high cost such as Monastery Mentor, Jor Kadeen, the Prevailer, Sublime Archangel, and Aurelia, the Warleader.

Then, for win cons these are my key cards:Tajic, Blade of the Legion + Worldslayer - This is much a nuke every swing.

Aggravated Assault + Sword of Feast and Famine - equipped by a creature with evasion or by tajic or with Basilisk Collar

Repercussion + any of the ff: Pyroclasm, Anger of the Gods, Archangel Avacyn  ^Flip's flip damage (this is vs. Aggro)

Dictate of the Twin Gods - goes in flash when enemy takes damage

Tajic, Blade of the Legion + Worldslayer = gg. Just sayin. I'm a "Tajic blows up the world" player so I'm a little biased. Mix in some equipment and land/creature destruction and you have a pretty powerful Boros deck. Adding in indestructable creatures helps and an Avacyn, Angel of Hope to make all your creatures indestructable and go wrath happy. Boros lacks decent card draw so every little bit helps like with Mentor of the Meek or Skullclamp with tokens.
