Sideboard


Maybeboard


This plays like a weird Red Deck Wins.

I started with the deck listed in http://puremtgo.com/articles/unconventional-aggro, but have switched up quite a bit outside of the core. It can goldfish a T3 kill, but is more consistently T4/5.

I usually try to get at least 1 of the baubles or a Chromatic Star in the opening hand, along with a creature. Once it gets moving, the Salvage Slashers and Slag Fiends grow quickly, and many of the artifacts have side-benefits when Atog eats them. Atog and the high density of artifacts can make blocks tough on an opponent if a Salvage Slasher or Slag Fiend is attacking as well.

Hammer of Purphoros improves board wipe recovery.

Traitorous Blood is usable on your own creatures to give trample.

Shrapnel Blast a Perilous Myr to clear a blocker and swing with a (now bigger) Slag Fiend.

Hold the bauble activations until the end of an opponent's turn to neuter discard (especially when your mana is tapped out). Also, no need to sacrifice them if you have your best play already in hand - maybe you'll draw a Disciple of the Vault to play next turn before combat.
