This is a very aggressive deck and my personal take on probably the most popular Boros commander out there.

So what's the plan? Aurelia gives me extra combats so I wanted to just jam my deck full of all kinds of "at the beginning of combat" and "when this creature attacks" -triggers... and some "when this creature deals combat damage" -triggers too, but those are in the minority.

There are some minor anti-synergies here, mostly related to the way some cards are worded. The tokens generated by Brimaz, King of Oreskos, Hanweir Garrison  , Hero of Bladehold come into play tapped and attacking, so technically the game mechanics never see them "attack". This means that the tokens don't count towards Battalion or other similar things. Also, if I don't have some way to give all of my creatures haste, these tokens don't get to attack during the extra combat steps either. All that being said, I felt like these cards are still so beneficial to what the deck is trying to do that I can't justify cutting them.

Some cards from the deck I'd personally like to highlight:
Land Tax, Gift of Estates - Not only are these a great way to ensure that you hit your land drops in a relatively mana light deck but they also give me a lot of fodder that I can discard away for Smuggler's Copter and Mask of Memory or pay for the retrace of Waves of Aggression
Breath of Fury - This card becomes absolutely nuts in this deck with all the free creatures I keep getting every combat.
Boros Charm, Legion's Initiative, Selfless Spirit - These are my Wrath protection. The deck is pretty feeble against sweepers.

Other than that, the list is pretty self-explanatory. I encourage you to try it - it's really fun!
