Legion Warboss

Creature — Goblin Soldier

Mentor (Whenever this creature attacks, put a +1/+1 counter on target attacking creature with lesser power.)

At the beginning of combat on your turn, create a 1/1 red Goblin creature token. That token gains haste until end of turn and attacks this combat if able.

Honestly Legion Warboss has been on the chopping block for that exact reason. I've been wondering if something like Hordeling Outburst or Krenko's Command would be better due to Cavalcade also mass triggers for Foundry Street Denizen .

I think -1 Legion Warboss for +1 Goblin Rabblemaster . It just seems better, especially in this deck. For one, it doesn't grow your creatures out of Cavalcade range but it does buff itself massively, and comboes well with Legion Loyalist

• I wasn't aware red had a card draw dilemma.
• The idea of the deck seems nice, and there are even some synergies with this type of strategy, so good on you for making Izzet Draw without the blue.
• You have questionably left out Legion Warboss , Warren Instigator and Moggcatcher .

• I'm not certain if it is really worth having Godo, Bandit Warlord in the deck.

• You get half a cookie and a well-worn $5 bill out of a can of beans.

4 Gutterbones instead of Legion Warboss maybe? 4 Murderous Rider for Bedevil , Angrath's Rampage ?

Thank you guys for your input. Risk Factor and the giant was removed along with 2 shocks and 1 Tin Street Dodger to make room for 1 Mountain 2 Legion Warboss 4 Fervent Champion and 2 Chandra's Spitfire

I feel like you need at least 1 more land, so you can more reliably cast your Torbran, Thane of Red Fell . Also Risk Factor seems like a mismatch, as you want creatures to trigger your Cavalcade of Calamity . If you really want your Cavalcade to go off, you need as much synergy as possible. Legion Warboss goes really well here, much more so than Krenko, Tin Street Kingpin . As mentioned above, Chandra's Spitfire is also great and probably more 1-drops, so you can curve out.

Boroswins on Boro's Standard

I was originally going to say yes, but that guildmage saved a lot of damage in two games by tapping down a big attacker a lot, and enabling Nahiri, Storm of Stone . I might drop the Boros Challenger since most of the creatures in your deck already have two power, or at most you will get one trigger.

Also, Legion Warboss generally doesn't add much value in my experience. The one goblin it makes often gets chump blocked, then he gets removed. I would say overall: -3 Legion Warboss and -3 Boros Challenger for +1 Tajic and Aurelia, and +4 Hero of Precinct One .

I feel Like Solar Blaze should be a 3-of in Side Board, not a 1-of in main. Given your creature costs, do you often find it is killing them? Deafening Clarion might get you further, giving you a lot of lifelink and a small scale boardwipe if needed. I might do -1 Solar Blaze and -1 Response / Resurgence for +2 Deafening Clarion in mainboard to keep up with some options.

Lastly, this deck needs some deck filtering/card draw. I recommend 3x Revitalize in the Sideboard against Aggro to keep ahead. I also recommend 2x Light Up the Stage . I would remove 1x Mountain and 1x Plain, and go 22 Lands. This deck tops out at 4, so you don't need a lot of mana late game. If that makes it harder to use the Guildmages, then maybe you drop them for some similar prison effect that is less mana intensive, like Prison Realm (which I like for the Scry). As you develop your rares, I would drop the Nahiri's for Experimental Frenzy or Chandra, Fire Artisan . Again, no more running out of gas.

Note on Sideboarding: I know sideboarding can be a pain, but with White, you have the best sideboard color in the game, and learning to use it can be very important. If you just do 1-ofs in Arena, I guess Nvm. If not, get some Disenchant and Revitalize in the sideboard, along with Lava Coil to start.

Hope this helps!
