Viashino Firstblade in Boros?
Deck Help forum
Posted on June 25, 2013, 1:29 p.m. by Seten
Hey, do you think 3x or 4x Viashino Firstblade would fit good into my boros deck THE BOROS ARE COMING!? If so, what card(s) do you think it should replace? Also, if you have any suggestions/feedback on the deck, it is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
i totally agree with vampirelazarus,
after play testing both, Skyknight Legionnaire is just better.... in limited, draft or sealed Viashino Firstblade is nice, but if my two choices in a draft were viashino vs skyknight i would be drafting the skynight every time over viashino, the evasion flying is just so much better than that inital attack boost.

They are not that bad out of the sideboard against control - some of the Naya Blitz decks have adopted them in the 75, but Frontline Medic and Boros Reckoner tend to be better against a wider range of decks. Frontline Medic is key for swinging into any deck that's trying to go bigger creatures than you. And Boros Reckoner is good against everything but decks that run a lot of non-damage based removal.

Personally, he's a letdown of a card. Is rather run Skyknight Legionnaire over him, and I don't even run her.
He's great in sealed limited though.... Him and Boros mastiff made me win games at the dgm prerelease.
