AuraPyro otherwise known as One Punch Man, is a transformative sideboard deck based around the ability that Storm Herald brings to the table. This deck has been going through a few itterations. Previously I was constantly using the Storm Herald as my magnet for the Aura's but that comes with some short coming's such as putting all yours eggs in one basket.. Oof. Furthermore your opponent only needs to hold up a single removal spell in hand to drag the game out longer. To get around this issue I stripped the deck back down to its core idea. Draw lots, discard my Aura's to the fire and get 3 mana on the board with a Storm Herald in hand. That left me with:

  • Storm Herald
  • Cathartic Reunion
  • Tormenting Voice
  • Thrill of Possibility
  • Haggle/Merchant of the Vale

Red is always the core color of this deck so I started there, and if white is going to be present you really do need to play with a playset of Ethereal Armor and All that Glitters. But giving a linear deck some wiggle room is important, thus I included a playset of Young Pyromancer split between Main and Sideboard. In game one the deck will go for the One Punch Man combo kill. Then your opponent has 2 choices, sideboard for graveyard hate, or let you do it again. Now there's a game theory game hidden in this match between games.. Do you transform with the sideboard, or do you play the combo straight again. Against any black or white deck I would 1000% change, as Leyline of the Void, Rest in Peace, and other hate cards could be much more plentiful.

More to come soon this is a draft
