Thanks for posting your results! I definitely agree that the more spell oriented build is more explosive, but that would take away from my point of building the deck. Nice to see something close to it do so well! If you ever play with it again, post the results here, along with any changes that you make!

In 7 games against 2 people it went 5-1 against Modern-Mono-Green Facestomper, and lost to Modern 5 Color Ally Aggro, overall very pleased with this deck. Didn't change a thing, very competitive

This has become one of my favorite decks to play in the just for fun room on MTGO. With a win percentage of around 80% playing various fun and semi-meta builds.
I've only run into a few problems, I moved 2x Myth Realized to the sideboard they didn't perform fast enough for my play-style in a good percentage of games.
Alot of the JFF-meta lately has been B/W Warriors or Lifegain so I added in 2x Fiery Impulse to the Maindeck 1x to the sideboard
I also added 1x Chandra, Fire of Kaladesh Flip to the maindeck to take advantage of the Red Spells in the deck. while it wasn't the main point of the deck it was fun to do with Temur/Titans Strength anyway.
Slapping around Siege Rhinos has been fun though ;)

Played this deck last week after reading looking at it last week...hit swiftspear/moon combo a few games in a row and loved it....i decided to make my own spin using Atarka as a base...Atarka Speed Agro +1 to you for the idea...I threw in 4 deflecting palms when I played your deck...just cause killing someone with there own creature is fun ;)

Would it be possible to get an addition with more expensive cards we might add to improve the deck? It is a rather impressive deck, and being short on money ill likely run it (thank you good sir!), but it would be nice to optimize it when I have an extra buck.

Hmm, well there's a lot of different directions you could go. But really there isn't much if you keep the list virtually the same, as the open upgrade I can think of is Abbot of Keral Keep instead of Mage-Ring Bully. Maybe some Exquisite Firecraft for the sideboard in the matchups that you need close out damage.

Awesome deck. You may want to consider adding like 3x Helm of the Gods. It really helos to lay the smackdown on the cheap for enchant desks.

I also made a less budget version of the deck Boros Aggro for interested parties.

The linked deck (above post) isn't mine lol.

You can't add abbot of keral keep because this is supposed to be a budget deck, but if it wasn't then Abbot still wouldn't be that good because you won't have any mana left over to cast anything after playing the abbot

@xadash: If you looked at my comment, I was telling another user possible non-budget optimizations for the deck. I originally had abbot in the build and he worked very well.

Hi there, last saturday i played with a deck based on this one, but i made some changes in order to make a bit more aggro, as for creatures i took the 3 Graceblade Artisan out for 3 Zurgo Bellstriker, on the other spells i took out Battle Mastery and Sage's Reverie and 1 Myth Realized, i added 3Defiant Strike and went on the full set of Titan's Strength and Infectious Bloodlust.
I finished 3rd out of 8 players with 2-1 record.First round i played against BR Devoid Aggro, ended 2-1 for me, 3 games that ended pretty fast, my wins came in the form of Temur Battle Rage + Titan's Strength combo kill.Second round lost to a mono-white 2-1, all the games were weird, first game i had to mulligan to 6 and only found red mana which left me with lots of cards in and to play, second game i only had white mana, fortunately my opponent stumble on mana and i was able to play a couple of Seeker of the Way and a couple of spells to pump it and win, last game i flodded and was short on spells to play.Last round was against Mardu Dragons and won 2-1, in this matchup Infectious Bloodlust was the MVP, in both games i played all the 4 and it was great to play a creature, enchant it and swing for 5 damage right away against an empty board.
I was happy with what the deck did, to the point that i'm thinking in upgrading it to the next level and splash green for Become Immense, leaving the enchantments behind, although i loved some of them.
