Feather Boros has had some popularity and success recently.

This deck is the result of tweaks made after trying out Boros, Naya, and Jeskai feather. I believe that Feather is most effective as a tempo/control deck that can board into prison. The Boros version lacks certain perks of Jeskai, such as Teferi, Time Raveler , Deputy of Detention and Dive Down , but is slightly more consistent in getting the right spells at the right times with the available lands necessary to cast them.

Out of five or six brews and tweaks, this has been the most successful feather brew in my play. It's really down-to-business.

The maybe-board contains some ideas of one-drop creatures that could add real value to a Feather deck regardless of what turn they were to be played.
