Deck Description

Your basic standard boros aggro deck. I'm still looking for imput and am trying to see if I can have anything that keeps the pressure on, fast, and keeps it on. Currently testing replacements for the Daring Skyjek. Currently in the running for replacement or addition is the ash zealot, calvary pegasus, or battlefield medic.

Edit 1 - Replaced the guildgates for sacred foundrys been needing to buy them just havent had the chance at my local store.

Edit 2 - Forgot I was running madcap skills in this as well, for that invasion and heroic triggers.

Edit 3 - Added in a Tajic and ash zealot

How to Play

Just keep playing down creatures and turning them sideways. Ideal hand would be 2-3 lands. If I keep a 2 land hand it would have to have a magma jet and a legion loylist. The side board is made to stop esper and american control hard. The burning earth makes any responce hard to play and peak eruption stops those pesky chained to the rocks. Hold your peak eruption until after a board wipe and if playing against control hold back a threat in your hand if you got plenty of threat on the field.

Deck discussion for Boros Aggro

Ash Zealot instead of Daring? Best 2 drop out there-only problem is mana flow (RR).

Failing that I'd take Cavalry Pegasus over him as he will give almost all your creatures flying not just himself.

Based upon the value of many of the creatures in your deck I don't think your running on a budget. Therefore it makes no sense to be running the gates as they are too slow for a deck like this and you should instead put in Sacred Foundry.

I'd replace Skynight with Frontline Medic, a far better 3-drop IMO.

Look at my Boros Human Aggro?

The Calvary Pegasus and Frontline Medic are very interesting ideas, I don't like losing the pressure of that 2/2 haste with flying the skynight brings to the table. Its nice to come back after a field wipe with another threat right away. I could possible afford the slight slowdown of the aggro with the skyjek coming out for the medic though a 3/3 for 3 with those upsides is amazing.
