Deck Description

A pretty simple, but effective Modern deck. The goal is to have a Boros Reckoner or two on the field and launch a Blasphemous Act for the win. There is a lot of life-gain as well, with a dual purpose. Auriok Champion and Kor Firewalker are protected against your board-burners, gain you a ton of life, and stick around to add in those few extra points of damage needed to win after the Blasphemous Act. Lingering Souls and Exotic Orchard pump up the creature count on the board to ensure a quick Act, whilst gaining you additional life off of Auriok Champion and Suture Priest, and dealing bonus damage with the latter. Having a Purphoros on the board also puts the opponent on a clock, even if he's not in creature form (which he most likely won't be). And lastly, Norin the Wary does his part in triggering the life-gainers, fueling Blasphemous Act without getting hit by it, and getting absolutely nasty with Purphoros out.

This is really just a hybrid of Soul Sisters and the once-Standard Boros Reckoner/ Blasphemous Act deck, but the two have some pretty good synergy together. More playtesting is needed, but from what I have experienced, the deck does pretty well and is rather speedy. I particularily like the mainboard cards that have protection from other bountiful cards in the format (Auriok Champion and Volcanic Fallout). I'm still working on devising a sideboard for the deck, but as stated, more playtesting is needed.
