Some thoughts:

  • A bunch of your cards aren't modern-legal. They're all the one's highlighted in red, so Archangel of Strife, Exalted Angel, Noble Templar, Wizards of Thay, Decanter of Endless Water, Robe of the Archmagi, Sol Ring, Ascend from Avernus, Fountain of Cho, Seat of the Synod, Promise of Tomorrow, and Reverent Mantra.

  • You're playing a lot more cards than the 60 required. Any amount of cards over 60 reduces a decks consistency and generally makes it weaker - I'd suggest heavily on trying to cut back to 60 cards.

  • You're currently playing waaay too many cards as 1-ofs or 2-ofs. This is going to make your deck super inconsistent and clumsy to pilot. You should be aiming for the majority of your deck to be playsets (4-ofs) of cards. A good strategy for new deckbuilders is to pick 9 cards, and run playsets (4-ofs) of each of those (making 36 cards) alongside 24 lands (for a 60 card deck).

  • Your mana curve is waay too high. Most modern decks can't justify running more than 4 cards (1 playset) costing 4 mana, and seldom run anything costing more than this much mana. You've got a whopping 23 cards costing 4-or-more mana, which is far too much. Going from the above suggestion of picking 9 cards, the mana costs of those cards should look something like 1,1,1,2,2,2,3,3,4.

I have some land suggestions for you! Not all of them are great, but some of them could be pretty snazzy.

@ForTheOldFrame: Thanks for your upvote and your detailed comment and sorry for posting so late. I was busy the last days and didn't find the time to reply.

I will try to answer to all your suggestion but I myself aren't an expert in EDH too. So maybe I am wrong with some choices and many cards depend on teh playgroup you are playing:

So thanks again for your comment and now I have the problem to find cards to take out for your suggestions ;-)

I definately understand the struggles of Boros... I have a Kalemne, Disciple of Iroas EDH deck called We're the Titans, We are Strong - Kalemne. Some suggestions as far as ramping would be something like:

  • Caged Sun - effectively doubles the amount of one color mana you can produce per turn

  • Fountain of Cho/Mercadian Bazaar - obscure land that enters the battle field tapped and can either be tapped to add how much mana you can add later or be dumped to bring out the big guns.

Grind on Cheap-Manno, Revolutionary(<15$)

i think you should run Pariah. it's simply the only reason Cho-Manno, Revolutionary is known. it's a great combo and this card only costs 50 cents.
if you are trying to cut something worth 25 cents to try and make up your artificial budget, you could cut Fountain of Cho for a Plains. let's look at the numbers. three turns after you have played the land: Fountain of Cho may have produced 1 mana total! Plains may have produced 3 mana.
while the fountain of cho is flavorful, its just a terrible land.

Opifex thanks for suggesting Fountain of Cho and Saprazzan Skerry. I'm new to deckbuilding and my knowledge of cards is minuscule at best. Looking at the rest of the deck, are there any non-land cards you would suggest cutting or adding in?

Fountain of Cho, Saprazzan Skerry excellent cards, might think about Forest, Plains, Island, and Swamp.
