Boros Aggro deck that I've built up over time. Includes a lot of smaller aggro, burn, and controlly creatures. The main win cons are Stormbreath Dragon and a couple of Boros Charm or Lightning Strikes to the face for 6 to 8 damage. Early game power is provided by Soldier of the Pantheon and
Rakdos Cackler
, with turn 2 either two more one drops or a Satyr Firedancer to duel purpose my burn, especially Boros Charm, or
Truefire Paladin
as just a good two drop with a nice buff ability. Turn 3 is Boros Reckoner. Turn 4 is either a double burn if lethal or wait for T5 for Stormbreath Dragon if not. Legion's Initiative is in there mainly for extra power on my
Rakdos Cackler
and Stormbreath Dragon and to buff my Boros Reckoner. The bounce is VERY useful as well against Maze's End, Board Wipes, and B/W Control.
Sideboard is Mizzium Mortars for Stormbreath Dragon and Blood Baron of Vizkopa as they're protected from Chain to the rocks. Silence is against Ramp or Control to either lose their momentum or protect against counters and removal. Assemble the Legion is just my way of telling Control that they can't afford to draw the game out.
Revoke Existence
to combat god-heavy decks, and the extra Legion's Initiative is for bouncing against control! Shock is for taking down the 2/2 hordes of Red Deck Wins.Sideboard Usage-

Any suggestions are appreciated, leave a +1 or a comment if you like it! Thanks. Brought this deck to a PTQ, found I had trouble mostly against Esper and U/W Control. Any tips?
Budget is $200-$300
