RW Token Madness

Standard RW (Boros)

Benandorf


Sideboard


This deck was designed to overload the opponent with tokens. The first few turns, you'll play some of the cheap creatures such as Zurgo Bellstriker, Monastery Swiftspear, and Foundry Street Denizen, then follow up with Dragon Fodder or Raise the Alarm. You want to keep pressure up while putting out an Impact Tremors or two, and then eventually Purphoros, God of the Forge, to continue putting damage on the enemy through token creating spells and the attacks of all the 1/1 tokens. Both Brimaz, King of Oreskos and Goblin Rabblemaster speed up this process, but are not necessary.

Played in some side events, and this deck did pretty well, went 2-2 in a standard challenge, but matches 3 and 4 could have been winnable if the deck was played a bit better, which is on me. Anyways, realized that Raise the Alarm is never really the card I want to be casting, and Impact Tremorsfoil turn 2 is the best play for the deck, unless Foundry Street Denizen came out turn 1 and you have Dragon Fodder or two red 1-drops in hand. So I replaced Raise the Alarm with a fourth Impact Tremorsfoil and two Mardu Scout, which will give me an actually decent play on turn 2 if I don't have tremors or foundry street. Also considered adding another Goblin Rabblemaster and Hordeling Outburst, but was worried that would bury me in 3-drops.

-3 Raise the Alarm

+2 Mardu Scout

+1 Impact Tremorsfoil
