Deck discussion for Aggressive Boros (Standard)

I'd first swap the Otherworld Atlas for Boros Keyrune. Assemble the Legion is to heavy a cost to play in Standard, other decks are just to fast Aggro wise to sit back and let you build a small army of Soldier tokens. Maybe splash green with some ramp abilities to make more use of that. A few farseeks never hurt anyone. If you chance to get it out quick and wind up protecting your enchantments then sure I see the glory in it. I ran two during the pre-release never saw one of em.

Not bad, I think you could do without the Truefire Paladin and Assemble the Legion first of all, also not a big fan of Otherworld Atlas especially here. I would see Ash Zealot as a better creature for this deck by far which is a good full on replace for Truefire, and then in place of assemble the legion I would go with the Hellrider because it is a much, much better card for this deck; the mana cost is lower, it has haste and it has an amazing trigger. Hellrider is a turn 4 active while Assemble the Legion especially without mana dorks/acceleration isn't active til turn 6 at the earliest and 9 more likely while you should have won by then. As for Otherworld Atlas I'm not sure, Thundermaw, or Stromkirk Noble, or the 2cmc W/R 3/2 with battalion for first strike, lightning mauler so your three drop has haste, silverblade paladin, champion of the parish.

Also you should get more dual lands, the Innistrad W/R one forgot the name. Otherwise I like the deck interesting creatures and all.

I like this. I think the Blind Obedience is the kicker... it will shut down almost anything, and let's you start boosting that Stromkirk immediately by giving it a couple of free rides to build counters. And Silverbladed Hellriders..... oooooh. 8)
