Help need for Boros EDH
Commander Deck Help forum
Posted on April 28, 2016, 3:28 a.m. by timckmorse
Okay so this deck is based on cards I actually own and can use. It's a Boros deck with Archangel Avacyn Flip as the general. She can flux in to protect your stuff or to blow everything up when she transforms. But this deck works. It does. It just doesn't have synergy. It is random with just having the good red and white cards in there. I want combos and stuff to work off each other. Any suggestions? What do I add? What do I cut? Please help me. I want this deck to be great. Deck is below.

Try to combo lifegain with straight power. Use cards that change damage statistics (Like Gisela) and hit hard with cards like Iroas or Aurelia. Boros is great at keeping you ahead of the curve. Try to get Dictate of the Twin Gods/Avatar of Slaughter as finishers. Avatar of Hope is great if you end up in a bad place.

Tithe and Mistveil Plains work very well with Sunforger. You cast Tithe with Sunforger, find Mistveil Plains, then put spells cast with Sunforger back into your library to be cast again.
You could take the deck to more of a token strategy with cards like Secure the Wastes, Rise of the Hobgoblins, White Sun's Zenith, and Elspeth, Sun's Champion. Then add token synergy cards such as Purphoros, God of the Forge, Ogre Battledriver, In the Web of War, and Mentor of the Meek. That's just one option to get some strong synergy in Boros colors!

Spark Trooper Doesn't fit. Replace with Herald of War.
Inferno Titan Also makes little sense in this deck. Perhaps replace with Basandra, Battle Seraph.
Blightsteel Colossus seems equally out of place. What about Anya, Merciless Angel.
Move Oblivion Ring from the maybe board to the main board. It is an amazing card. Maybe replace Path to Exile.

Do not replace Path to Exile...best spot removal in Magic. Also, how about Serra Ascendant?

I dont know how to feel about Pyromancer's Goggles in this deck. It would be a phenomenal card if you played more of the additional combat phase spells, such as Fury of the Horde, Relentless Assault and Savage Beating

Also, 33 land seems incredibly low given your mana curve and lack of mana rocks. Do you have issues getting the mana you need?

Combos dont really do things in Boros for the most part. Are you wanting the end result to be built around Avacyn, or basically an army deck? I'm planning a Boros Weenies deck myself, since Innistrad has me in a humans mood and I have an Avacyn from my box. She'll be fun for mind games :P "Go ahead and cast damnation. Oh look I flash in Avacyn and only your stuff dies lols"
If youre up for alternate generals (Avacyn is still great as one of the 99). Aurelia is probably the best one in the colors
