I'm no longer actively playing the deck as I moved to Duel Commander, however I decided to keep it updated with what I believe are the best additions from the new sets. Wizards is no longer updating the 1v1 commander banlist so the deck assumes the banlist is the same as 4 player commander, removing Mana Crypt and Jeweled Lotus hurts this deck's gameplan a lot but it's still extremely powerful.

A CEDH 1v1 aggro deck that puts heavy pressure on your opponent while allowing you to interact with their gameplan with stax and spot removal. The deck can play the long game with strong value cards and Minsc and Boo's -2 ability which can easily draw you 7+ cards. Consistent turn 3-5 wins.

Cast Minsc & Boo, Timeless Heroes by turn 2 at the latest and start pressuring opponents. Either go all out with pressure and creatures or start interacting by sacrificing Boo and drawing into removal spells or stax pieces. The deck is very flexible with lots of artifact and enchantment removal + Liquimetal Torque to turn any permanent into an artifact and remove enchantments, planeswalkers etc. Blood Moon, Karn, the Great Creator, Maddening Hex, Endurance, Agatha's Soul Cauldron, Vexing Bauble to stop most grave/combo shenanigans and lock out mana bases.

Features

Some of the best haste / trample creatures to provide crazy amounts of pressure with Minsc & Boo while still running several cards for interaction and value. Stompy creatures are mostly 3 cmc + since we can ramp extremely fast into heavy hitters.

Great artifact and enchantment removal with cards like Shattering Spree, Ancient Grudge, Haywire Mite, Boseiju, Who Endures, Fiery Confluence, By Force, Nature's Claim, Collective Resistance etc.

Good creature, planeswalker removal and burn with Galvanic Discharge, Fury, Pyrokinesis, Lightning Bolt, Chain Lightning etc.

Tons of mana dorks, mana rocks and fast mana artifacts allow you to cast Minsc by turn 1-2 to immediately start pressuring or drawing cards.

Amazing synergy with minsc's +1 and cards like Dreadhorde Arcanist which help you outvalue slower decks in the long game.

Cards like Skullclamp, Laelia, the Blade Reforged, Caves of Chaos Adventurer, The One Ring, Court of Garenbrig, Broadside Bombardiers etc. provide excellent value while allowing you to concentrate on dealing damage.
