Sideboard


Should be a classic Boros deck. It is either really aggressive (thank you red), or really defensive waiting for the big creatures (thank you white). As soon as 3 creatures are on the field, odds are you should be attacking. Battalion gives a great advantage early for attack phases and will just keep getting more ridiculous each turn.

In typical white deck fashion, there are plenty of cards to momentarily beef up a creature, do some protection, or gain some life. So don't be afraid to not declare blockers early to let your first 2 or 3 creatures survive. The advantage will likely be taken by turn 3 or 4 and that life will come back.

The nice red twist is that many of the spells cause damage while protecting or doing life gain. Makes people hesitant to attack or just frustrated when deciding to declare blockers or not. Don't forget to use Master Warcraft on your own turn or opponents to just wreck their creatures or just end the game.

Boros is a great combo, but hard to perfect. I have changed this deck many times. Any strategy that can be added would be greatly appreciated. I'd be curious if people just thought if Akroma is just too outdated now. Really powerful, but goes against my general strategy of keeping CMC to 6 or under.
