I mean, probably not great, but such is the case with non-blue control decks. More instant speed interaction instead of board wipes are recommended in a higher power meta since you can lock in easy wins against aggro with isolation spells and effects like Constant Mists and Glacial Chasm . If you c...

How does your deck fare against instant-speed combo lines and especially lines that do not rely on permanents to win (i.e., Thassa's Oracle)? It seems like most of your control spells are either sorcery speed or do not interact with non-permanent spells (i.e., demonic consultation).

How reliable are your infinite combo wincons? I'm currently working on a Boros deck that has an infinite combat step win con with cards like Godo, Bandit Warlord and Sword of Hearth and Home (with a flying / unblockable creature) or Helm of the Host. As Gruul, you have access to many creature tutors...

I am thinking now that Akiri, Fearless Voyager may be a better commander pick for this deck idea. The win con is still to seek infinite combat steps or to lock players from casting spells after establishing a superior creature board presence. With Akiri, the deck may be more flexible in its approach...

Thank you weltkrieg. This combat phase information is an important detail that I did not know--something that may change the deck's design in a big way. Thanks for the other valuable tips too. I am thinking of replacing the mana pingers with flying creatures now so that other combat damage effects (...

Hello everyone, I have an idea for a Boros Aurelia deck. Aurelia, the Warleader The win conditions for this deck will either be 1) infinite / many combat phases with helm or sword Sword of Hearth and Home Helm of the Host or 2) a lock with possibility storm and a strong creature board presence. Dran...

Hello everyone. I've been considering a Boros EDH deck that is based on locking your opponents out of the game, at which point they can resign. The idea is to pull off a combo that either prevents opponents from casting spells or reduces their hand sizes. Here is a link to the deck I've built with a...

Thank you both for the feedback. I accept that until I drop more money than I'd like to spend on artifact ramp, this deck will not be *truly* competitive. Perhaps I can create a truly competitive and a budget competitive deck list. There are many good ideas here. I originally had the same reaction t...

Thank you Rumpy5897 for the informative post. The goal of this deck is to make it as strong as it can be against competitive decks such as Zur, Urza, or The First Sliver, so I appreciate you delivering your ideas hard and straight. I have read Braden's deck idea and philosophy. The concern that I en...

I have not posted it yet, but I made a deck from this general idea. I dropped creatures except for 1 Dream Trawler and dropped to 1 Ral with 2 Expansions. The other win condition is Fevered Visions. This card is very strong vs. control and even some higher CMC decks with creatures. I splashed white ...

Ah, right. It is true that cEDH uses many artifact lands. Perhaps I posted this in the wrong thread. Thank you both for sharing why MLD might not be useful in cEDH. Indeed, the spells are cast at sorcery speed, require a lot of mana, and might not even debilitate players. I did not realize that cEDH...

Hello, welcome. Always nice to see more Feather action, I can't believe that she's drifted out of the collective consciousness already. Well, I guess I can, given perpetual hype and Feather's linearity. But decals can be applied however one sees fit - my primer runs ETB as a subtheme, focusing more...

Hi, welcome to the forums. I also have a Feather deck that focuses on flicker effects and has a strong focus on Sunforger antics. You can check it out here => https://www.mtgnexus.com/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=15573&p=33756#p33756 I'll give you some quick suggestions. Axgard Armory for getting S...

When people say that Boros is bad in commander, I believe that they imply an unspoken rule. The most powerful Boros effects are implicitly banned. 1 Impending Disaster 1 Armageddon 1 Bend or Break 1 Cataclysm 1 Catastrophe 1 Epicenter 1 Global Ruin 1 Jokulhaups 1 Keldon Firebombers 1 Ravages of War ...

Are you RuinerMTG on Twitch?

It would be cool to look at this deck more in-depth. What are your general win cons?

Purpose The purpose of this deck is to make a Feather deck that is as competitively viable as possible. This means that it must have quick and consistent answers to Win Cons, which to my knowledge, tend to include commanders. Introduction Hello everyone. I am new to this site and to creating primer...
