Goblinslide

Enchantment

Whenever you cast a noncreature spell, you may pay {1} Mana. If you do, put a 1/1 red Goblin creature token with haste onto the battlefield.

I run pretty much the same list as you do. But instead of the pump spells, I play even more card draw and rituals! I found in playtesting that it doesn't matter if I run my opponents over or just draw the whole deck and flux them. Is the combat plan working out for you at times where the storm plan doesn't? Because I saw no real difference.

I think you could play fewer lands. The curve of this deck is really low and we want to win fast anyways as every boardwipe is a big detrement to the game plan. Personally, I run 30 lands and it is more than enough. This becomes even more true with the new London mulligan rule.

While on the topic of lands, man lands are a great way to have that few extra creatures ready when they are needed. Any land that can activate itself like Mishra's Factory or Blinkmoth Nexus works great.

Another card that really worked great for me is Goblinslide . I know, it's not a young pyro, but the effect is still great for that price.

Cheers!

At this point, would you rule out Launch the Fleet & Goblinslide ?

Does Leering Emblem really own it’s spot?

Never thought of Scroll of the Masters setting off, but I’m gonna give that a try now

TwinStags Here are the cards you want opinions: Oblation Stuffy Doll Silverclad Ferocidons Crack the Earth Misguided Rage ( Phalanx Leader Anax and Cymede tokens with Young Pyromancer Launch the Fleet Monastery Mentor Akroan Crusader Vanguard of Brimaz ) Goblinslide Tenth District Legionnaire Burning Prophet and I'll give you my opinions.

Oblation : This is a great card! For 2 and a White you exile a token and get TWO LANDS!! VALUE!! Until you run out of basic lands to fetch. Then you're getting rid of 1 creature threat at a cost of giving two lands to only ONE of your opponents. ChibiNature's explanation for getting rid of Oblation is higher up on this thread. But Oblation only does so much for 3 CMC. Compare to other spells that is in this deck, that is also 3 CMC, Oblation is a clear choice to cut. BUT, if you are going the TOKEN route for your EDH deck then this is good. Not great, only good.

Stuffy Doll Silverclad Ferocidons : These two are basically the same effect, hurt them and they hurt our opponent. So the question becomes 'How many 'Direct Damage' spells are we going to run? The answer: Not enough. These two cards do not justify the amount of direct damage spells we need to run to kill our opponents.

Crack the Earth Misguided Rage : These cards have no synergy with Feather, the Redeemed , there is no value because we can't replay these cards unless we do graveyard recursion which is a host of other cards that is NOT in Boros colors.

Phalanx Leader Anax and Cymede tokens with Young Pyromancer Launch the Fleet Monastery Mentor Akroan Crusader Vanguard of Brimaz ) Goblinslide : This is actually a good idea, make a bunch of tokens and just spew all over our opponents faces. This is probably the 2nd best way to play Feather, the Redeemed . It does need a lot of setup and luck in drawing your creatures and spells. I can see an aggro deck that snowballs very fast. You'll be enemy #1 very fast. But can you bounce back after a boardwipe? How many turns will it take for you to rebuild your army of tokens? What about the balance of number of creatures to number of pump spells? How are you going to protect your tokens from being wiped?

Tenth District Legionnaire Burning Prophet : Scrying is nice. Drawing is better. For example you cast a spell onto Tenth District Legionnaire and you scry and decide to keep that card on the top. What happens to the next spell you cast onto Tenth District Legionnaire . If it is a pump spell, then it's better to cast it onto Zada, Hedron Grinder and pump ALL your tokens instead of only Tenth District Legionnaire . The same argument goes for Burning Prophet as well. My opinion is that Burning Prophet is better than Tenth District Legionnaire

You are missing two other ways to play Feather, the Redeemed . Have you looked into Flicker playstyle using Cloudshift and Otherworldly Journey ? Have you seen Zealous Conscripts and Stonehorn Dignitary ? Imagine casting Cloudshift onto Stoneforge Mystic ! ProTip: Use Zealous Conscripts to grab an enemy creature, then cast Cloudshift onto the creature you stole... that creature is now yours until it dies, not until end of turn!

Also, add Goblinslide to that list

Any thoughts on the scry benefits from Tenth District Legionnaire or Burning Prophet . Tenth probably not because it needs direct.

(Mostly bothering you because you’re actively play testing and making changes)

My pet card for this deck is Veilstone Amulet . It puts in work.

You are a little creature light especially if you want a lot of targets for mirrorwing and zada. I see what you are going for with Swiftblade Vindicator but I think there are better creatures for this deck.

Psychotic Fury can't target zada or mirrorwing, so it didn't make my list.

Seize the Day underperformed for me. Without a lot of vigilance creatures it ended up doing the same as giving one creature double strike

Other considerations for the deck, Akroan Crusader , Path to Exile (can be used on your own tokens to ramp you), Goblinslide , Intimidation Bolt , Guttersnipe , Electrostatic Field , Thermo-Alchemist , Sentinel Tower , Reliquary Tower

I agree with SenatorDickWeed in that I think Sunforger would be great for this deck. Once you get it, you can basically tutor for whatever instant or sorcery you need to answer any situation. I'm not sure why you would be against a "value Sunforger package..." that just doesn't make sense to me. But if you don't want to run it, I get it, I guess...

I see it as a very good tutor in this deck. Since you cast the spell with Sunforger , you'll get it back to your hand with Feather out. I don't think I'd necessarily feel the need to throw in a bunch of tutors to go fetching the Sunforger in every game, but having it in there for the fun times you'll have when it does pop up can't be a bad thing. And let's face it, Boros needs every advantage it can conjure up.

Feather and Zada, Hedron Grinder on the field at the same time is pretty sweet. I also wanted to say I wasn't really aware of the card Goblinslide , but I love the synergy it has in here. I also like its synergy with Mentor of the Meek , with enough mana available, of course.

I saw this spoiled by The Command Zone, and I agree that it looks like fun to build around, and is definitely a great Commander for the guild that needed some card advantage. Nice work here!

I see I am not the only one excited about Feather, and I am glad!

Let's discuss!

First I want to ask about Sunforger ... I've been debating it because it is more expensive than this deck wants and would just be value and not really a win-con, which is how I like to play my Sunforger. Your thoughts?

I like Braid of Fire and the Altar here... very clever!

Some Cuts: Stone Quarry, Path of Ancestry, Boros Guildgate, Ancient Amphitheater all for basics, Strongarm Monk, Gut Shot, most of the Heroic guys that only get bigger like Akroan Skyguard, better to focus on going wide and protecting your board.

I'd add: Wayfarer's Bauble , Fellwar Stone , Coldsteel Heart , just because you have a low curve doesn't mean you don't want ramp, Goblinslide , Oblation (hit your own token every turn for cards), Impact Resonance , and Grenzo, Havoc Raiser .

my only regret is that I have but one upvote to give.

possible suggestions:

Goblinslide - makes tokens for casting non-creature spells

Mirari - cast things again

Goblin Warrens - sac 2, make 3? with etb triggers? seems legit.

Pentavus turns into an etb trigger

Spawning Pit lets you lose only half your tokens to a board wipe, but they come back as 2/2s

Thopter Assembly becomes stupidly good if you can get rid of thopters fast enough.
