Auerlia EDH
Deck Help forum
Posted on June 4, 2013, 11:34 a.m. by zachi
Need help figuring out what i should do with her. I have two ideas, both kind of abuse her ability. The first one is packing the deck with card effects that trigger when i declare attackers IE, having auerlia, tajic, firemane avanger, herald of war, ectectect. The other way is to pack the deck with equipment to buff auerlia and have alot of extra combat phases to swing for lethal. Any opinions on what would be more viable?
The budget isn't an issue. i have alot of friend who play and trade and actually go to tornis. And i know those two are rather subpar, but they are fillers. What cards would you recommend. Im not trying to sound lazy, im still learning ;

Read this article.
You should avoid creatures that are only good as beatsticks. EDH decks really benefit from utility, so you should try to use creatures that offer some additional functionality. Avacyn, Angel of Hope , Gisela, Blade of Goldnight , Weathered Wayfarer , Urabrask the Hidden , and similar creatures are the best options in R/W.

Gisela used to be the commander of this deck and avacyn is in here as well. A friend wants to trade me a wethered wayfarer so i can get my hands on that as well, and i like you mr praetor. But thank you for the help with the article

I'm having some 1v1 success with her and a bunch of aggro, blood-rush and sac at end step creatures.

Aurelia, the Warleader is kind of expensive for a Voltron approach. If she dies even once, you're going to be paying a lot just to get her back onto the field.
The other method is kind of finicky. You need to be careful about what creatures you choose. Cards like Firemane Avenger and Herald of War are pretty subpar in EDH.
What kind of budget do you have?
