Modern* Combo Competitive Land Destruction Midrange RW (Boros)

dagostini


  • Land Destruction + Boat Brew

Trying to make a competitive RW midrange in Modern Format.

To reach this, i'm trying to explore what most powerfull Red and White have: land destruction, cheap and eficient creatures, mass removal and spot removal. Choose to use planeswalkers to end the game, since they can give us time while destroying lands.

Also based on Boat Brew deck -> http://wiki.mtgsalvation.com/article/Standard_Boat_Brew

  • LD [main strategy]

1 - Boom/Bust + Flagstones of Trokair

A powerfull combo we can only find on this colors.

With Boom, you can target Flagstones of Trokair and search for a Sacred Foundry, while your oponent loses a land.

Arid Mesa also do the work, though not so good as Flagstones of Trokair.

Just 3 to avoid having no Flagstones of Trokair or Arid Mesa in the hand.

2 - Fulminator Mage

A very powerfull card and sinergic with this deck. 4-of, sure.

3 - Avalanche Riders

A good card that can hit when enters or block some big guy. 2-of is enough.

[ There's another option of land destruction combo with Blood Moon + Peak Eruption . Blood Moon is a great card that win many games alone, and with Peak Eruption you can destroy any land oponent controls ]

Other options: Molten Rain, Blood Moon + Peak Eruption

  • Spot removal and mass removal

1 - Lightning Bolt

Lightning bolt is lightning bolt. 4-of.

2 - Lightning Helix

Strong card that give us some life. Not sure if 3 or 4.

3 - Volcanic Fallout

This card is very sinergic with Boros Reckoner - don't kill him, can be cast on the mid of the battle and amplify the damage done on creatures, removing some creature _/4.

4 - Chained to the Rocks

With 2 of it, it's very hard having problems to casting it. Cheaper than Oblivion Ring and great to stop big guys that can destroy our plans.

It could be replaced by Path to Exile, but i think it has no sinergy with the deck's proposal.

Other options: Path to Exile, Magma Jet, Oblivion Ring, Anger of the Gods

  • Support creatures

1 - Wall of Omens

Great card! Has an amazing card advantage and give us time.

2 - Boros Reckoner

Very strong 2:1 creature - kill 1 on block and another with damage received. Also sinergic with Volcanic Fallout .

3 - Reveillark

Very sinergic with Fulminator Mage and Avalanche Riders, potencializing the LD and making the oponent very anger on mid/late-game. 2 is enough to avoid casting it having just 1 or none creature it can bring nack on the graveyard.

4 - Sun Titan

Gets back Boros Reckoner, Wall of Omens, Arid Mesa, Flagstones of Trokair and specially powerfull with Fulminator Mage.

Other options: Brimaz, King of Oreskos, Hero of Bladehold, Figure of Destiny, Restoration Angel, Baneslayer Angel, Aurelia, the Warleader, Mirran Crusader

  • Planeswalkers

Ajani Vengeant, Elspeth, Knight-Errant and Gideon Jura are very sinergic! They give us a great backup to get some time and are our best finishers for the game. Also protect each other.

Any suggestions? Numbers, cards in and out... they'll be welcome!

Rate pls!
