Thanks for the feedback buddy.
Another huge card for the list, that may or may not be mainboard, but for sure in sideboard is Skullcrack. But it's not on this site yet.

Also keep in mind this is a very loose list, more or less just keeping my mental speculation somewhere to safe keep. Aurelia will be ran though, at least in a one of, because if the game gets there, and she resolve, she wins. She's haste also.
This deck is meant to be more resilient than your typical current format RDW variety.
Maybe more compared to red/black aggro or black/green aggro.
The hope is hoping for something like lightning helix to come about.

You're welcome, and when you mention the deck in that light (more of a mid-range that can go late) compared to an aggro deck that can go mid, it makes more sense to me.
I would be on the lookout to see if the boros keyrune is any good if you are deciding to keep Aurelia in, and the haste she holds is pretty nice indeed for her ability.
I would like to see more 1 or 2-drops though, I think they will be important if the Pyreheart Wolf and Hellrider are going to perform to their potential.
See you tomorrow!

You could also potentially splash green for potential Gruul clan goodies, the gruul keyrune (if it's any better than the boros keyrune), and everyone's favorite 2-drop: Farseek .

Hey Donald,
My initial thoughts are for this deck to add 4 more 1-drop creatures and 4 more 2-drop creatures (Reckless Waif Flip and Lightning Mauler seem nice).
Also, I don't think this deck requires any 6-drops (Warleader) at 23 lands and no mana acceleration cards.
In my opinion you can drop the 2 Aurelia, the Warleader 1 Pyreheart Wolf , 1 Firemane Avenger , and actually even 4 Silverblade Paladin (due to WW retrictions).
The silverblade paladin change will also free this deck up to be primarily red with a splash of white in order to cast the avenger, the boros charm (if it's good) and any other boros cards later revealed that seem worthy of splashing.
I also don't think you need a 4th Hound of Griselbrand in the sideboard.
