Hey I like the deck, but personally I would run one of the red 1 drops instead of Boros Elite If you want to keep a Human base, Stonewright is an excellent card most overlook, and he's a great pair with Ash Zealot . He also gets the bonus of being relevant late game as a top deck as he gives anything you have on the board fire-breathing.

One of the strong points of this deck I feel is the sideboard, it's really excellent, I'd just take out the Riders of Gavony for another card:Slayers' Stronghold as 1 of's wont do much even if you side them in.

Killercheesepuff I'll have to give that some testing. I'm just a tad wary of Stonewright since too many soulbond creatures tend to get in each others way. I'm might try a 2/2 split between Stonewright and Legion Loyalist .

I do disagree slightly about 1 ofs. There's about a 20% chance of seeing a 1 of in a quick 5 turn game. Let's say I'm facing down a mirror of sort, I'd gladly side in what essentially a 20% chance to win the game.

Nice Deck! I would probably prefer Boros Reckoner over Skyknight Legionnaire anytime, but it would make your already risky Manabase because of Ash Zealot meet its limits probably. Nothing is more annoying than having 2 R/W Lands + Caverns on Humans with Boros Reckoner stuck in your Hand.

I'm gonna be running a more White-shifted version of Boros Humans, but they look very Similar. If you could have a look at it, any Input would be much appreciated! Boros Avenger

Yeah, Skyknight Legionnaire is a bit of an experiment for how much the deck wants another haste for triggering battalion and an evasive threat vs cheaper and/or stronger drops.
