---

A Boros aggro deck that doesn't go wide, but instead is designed to control the board and hit in hard with a few monsters.

Target state is to get Sunforger on the board with any / all of Mistveil Plains , Leonin Shikari , Hammer of Nazahn and / or Puresteel Paladin . You can use Sunforger to Tutor and play an instant, tuck it back in your deck with Mistveil Plains and re-attach Sunforger immediately, maybe for free, ready to action again, so some semblance of board control. I have included Instants that provide a wide range of functionality. Your Sunforger toolbox is listed below.

Sunforger Instant Toolbox

Functionalities:

Take control of a Spell - Wild Ricochet , this can be brutal!
Go for Broke - Akroma's Will
Remove a creature - Swords to Plowshares
Remove an artifact or enchantment - Return to Dust
Boardwipe protection - Destruction: Boros Charm for all permanents, Akroma's Will for creatures
Boardwipe protection - Sorceries: Eerie Interlude
Targetted protection + cantrip - Acrobatic Maneuver
Prevent and reflect damage - Comeuppance
Take control of a dying creature - Debt of Loyalty (maybe to Fling with Brion Stoutarm )
Take control of a living creature - Grab the Reins (maybe to Fling with the Entwine cost)
Counter a Spell - Lapse of Certainty not bad for white
Ramp - Tithe grab a few Plains, especially Mistveil Plains
Lockdown an opponent + cantrip - Abeyance , this will shut down a deck for a turn

Other Instants I am considering would be:
Demoralize - Give all our creatures a free shot?
Fling - chuck one of your fatties, maybe for double damage , backup to Grab the Reins
Entrapment Maneuver - if someone is playing Voltron or big Eldrazi
Brought Back - save your most important creatures
Fight to the Death - use it during combats you are not even involved in!

Neat Moves

Obviously Sunforger provides half the Neat Moves in this deck. Other than that, here are a few other interactions.

Ramp
With Land Tax on the board, you can ensure you don't miss a land drop.
Knight of the White Orchid , Fabled Passage , Myriad Landscape & Burnished Hart can be recurred with Sun Titan .

Draw
Bouncing an ETB creature with Acrobatic Maneuver will draw you a card.
With Land Tax in the deck, you can fill your hand with Basics, then pitch then to Nahiri's +2 ability or burn through your deck with Tectonic Reformation .
A few creatures can draw you cards based on attached equipment.
Bonders' Enclave will draw you a card a turn when you don't need the mana.

Card Value
A few cards tutors Plains, not just Basics. Grab Mistveil Plains at first opportunity, to tuck cards.
Both Buried Ruin and Inventors' Fair can be recurred with Sun Titan .

Wincons
There are a few wincons, but this deck is full on voltron.

Possible Upgrades

Upgrades & Replacements Under Consideration:

Cards I Would Have To Buy:

None at this time.

Cards I Already Own, Or Are On Order:

Blade of Selves - A decent equipment
Wheel of Fate - would be a good addition
Leonin Abunas - Do I think there will be as lot of targeted removal? Replace ??
If I wanted another creature or two, Champion of the Flame or Goblin Gaveleer are the best options, as they have trample.
It's a stretch, but I could add Thespian Stage to get another Mistveil Plains

To get more attacking value, Malignus and Soul of Eternity would be sweet, and fling-able.

Coming Release Cards Under Consideration:

Recent cards that would be good in this deck: Ardenn, Intrepid Archaeologist , and Akiri, Fearless Voyager
