Deck Description

This is a constant work-in-progress. Im looking for some feedback, so please leave a comment. Please note that I am building on a budget, and it only includes cards I currently own. It is very fast, and works best in a single-player format, although the addition of insurrection will assist in multilayer.

This deck's focus is to get boros swiftblade out 2nd turn, enchant it with scourge of the nobillis on turn 3 and attack, then attack again on turn 4 with max power via the scourge's firebreathing for a total of 14 damage plus lifelink. The rest of the deck is mainly to circumvent blockers and eliminate attackers.

Use Thundersong Trumpeter to stop large creatures from attacking, or to prevent them from blocking you.

Lightning Helix will help rid the field of pesky blockers while healing you, or hit an opponent for that extra bit of damage.

Balefire Liege lets you hit opponents for 3 damage every time you play a red spell, and gain 3 for every white spell. it also boosts your creatures power and toughness.

Unstable footing helps against prevention, and can also give that extra bit of damage to finish off an opponent, while Reciprocate exiles any heavy hitters that you cant stop otherwise.

Kiki-Jiki lets you get a copy of one of your creatures until end of turn. Use it to either copy the hedge-mage to destroy opponent's artifacts and enchantments, to spawn a kavu to kill a creature or attack, or for a meadowboon to strengthen your creatures.

Brigid is for killing off attackers or eliminating lots blockers, especially when equpied with gorgon flail.

Use Brion Stoutarm to sacrifice a doomed creature for damage and life.

Hellkite Charger lets you attack again in the same turn, and Spirit of the Hearth grants you super-shroud.

Razia is a powerful flying vigilance haste who can also redirect damage towards your creatures back to your opponent's.

Gorgon flail grants your creatures deathtouch, so your creatures with first strike and double strike have ability to kill without dying, and Brigid can eliminate all enemy attackers or blockers.

Use Breath of Life to bring back any major creatures that die on you, or that you are forced to discard.

Deck discussion for Boros Burn Lifegain

I love the Boros legion its definetly my favorite Ravnica guild!!
I would replace gorgon fail with one of sword probably war and peace, get rid of Spirit of the Hearth it costs 6 and if you want the player hexproof use the leyline of vitality, replace reciprocate with path to exile or swords to plowshares, get rid of Unstable Footing if you want the5 damage use thunderous wrath, finally i would add 1 more ajani
