Intro

A unique Boros aggro deck focusing on artifact creature synergies to deal as much damage to our opponents as soon as possible. I think the deck needs a lot of refinement. Like most of my decks this first draft is being put together with a bunch of cards I already had and as I add updates I will be trying out some new cards and figuring out how many slots I need for each type of card.

Game Plan:

Get Alibou, Ancient Witness out ASAP with artifact ramp and start to swing alongside other artifact creatures to get Alibou's trigger to destroy any blockers in our path and churn through our deck with the scry to find more gas to keep the pressure up. Boros decks historically struggle to have card draw and relay on alternative card advantage like the red "exile cards until end of turn and you may play them" effects that are also featured with the likes of Jeskas's Will, but Alibou's scry trigger is super powerful and i find myslef shoving 4-8 cards to the bottom of my library every attack step just to dig for my heavy hitting finishers like Embercleave or Iroas, God of Victory as well as boardwipe protections like Darksteel Forge and Make a Stand.

Neon Dynasty Update The vehicle commander deck has some cool cards that I want to try in the deck. I'm not sure how deep I want to go into vehicle synergies so I think I'm going to start just with the vehicle cards that are just independently good like Aerial Surveyor. I am also excited for Organic Extinction which is incredibly powerful in the deck. Reconfigure cards are also really interesting and Komainu Battle Armor seems like a great fit. I'll update the list proper once I get my hands on the cards and then give some more thoughts once I play with them.
