Boros Burn deck - what i'm running while i'm building out an american deck. i didn't realize how expensive lands can be until after i was already stained with the pleasure of this game.
FNM winnings:
won 2-21-2014 (comic commander, split for 1st)
won 2-28-2014 (Van's comics and cards, split for 1st place)
won 3-7-2014 (comic commander, split for 1st)
some rules i like to remember for landing punches:
rule 1.) Don't play on your turn. instead, play instant spells at end of opponents turn (or during combat if neccessary) to force them into spending mana or taking damage).
rule 1.A) if opponent takes damage on his turn, repeat step 1.
rule 1.B) if opponent counters burns, play hasted creature on next turn while opponent is tapped out.
rule 2.) if playing control, don't break rule 1.
rule 3.) don't forget that the dragon is pro-white and destroys blood baron
rule 4.) sideboard for enchant/artifact hate, and pithing needle for plainswalkers and aetherling. throw turn 3 creatures in there against quicker decks that play little removal.
rule 5.) when opponent get's to 6 or less life, save 2 burn spells and wait for him/her to tap out,
Aurelia, the Warleader is a beast on the field. comes in HOT!
Spark Trooper opponents never expect to see this. only instant speed removal or first strike will stop him. (really i just want to hit someone with a this guy after i Boros Charm him for Dbl Strike.:)
Boros Reckoner i have 1. i'm playing 1. nuff said.
Stormbreath Dragon i have more of him, but 2 run well with the mana curve i've got going.
Anger of the Gods turn 3 kill your little guys (and exile them)
Mizzium Mortars good for killing all sorts of creatures.
Chained to the Rocks good for anything the above 2 don't kill
Skullcrack my favorite burn spell. Yes, i will be adding 2 more.
Magma Jet turn 2 kill a guy (or player) and scry 2.
Boros Charm very useful for killing plainswalkers that +1 to 4 or less as well as keeping mine alive. Or just a quick punch in the face!
Warleader's Helix lifegain. helps outrace agro.
Lightning Strike 3 to the face, plainswalker, or creature.
Aurelia's Fury i have 1, so i'm playing 1 seems appropriate.
Assemble the Legion playing 1 as a win con for late game. it's great when it works, but sucks when it's too slow. i doubt i will add any more.
Elspeth, Sun's Champion for late game wins. she's really great.
