Boros Reckoner

I only play three, but that's mostly due to my price restriction at the time. I feel like maybe in the place of the fourth one should be a Hammer of Purphoros .

Opinions?

Depends on the deck.

Decks that can abuse Boros Reckoner 's power level but can't afford to adjust their mana accordingly may only run two or three. As an example, I only ran three in my The Nayan Apocalypse deck from the previous Standard format.

Of course. I understand that. More specifically, RDW. I should have specified that, sorry.

You need four if your plan is to win using Fanatic of Mogis . You can skimp on a few otherwise if Fanatic is not a key component of your deck.

I have never owned any and ran R/W aggro pre-rotation.
