15 sideboard cards



Notes:
Emphasis on double strike from (silverblade, boros charm, Ajani) to play on anything really but mainly Spark Trooper, Thundermaw and Aurelia. Gisela for finisher (if it gets that far). Blind Obedience to assist haste. Sideboard built around opponents I've faced lately (mill, board wipe etc. ). Let me know what you all think. Kinda proud of it :)

I'm building a Boros deck tonight and will let you know what I come up with but why do you want to flicker Aurelia?

Extra combat phases. Cloudshift basically makes her come back to the field as a "new" Aurelia, so her ability resets

You get the extra combat phase each turn not just when she ETB. There is no need to flicker her.

If I'm right flickering her would allow you to get more then 2 attack phases a turn seeing as when she attacks you get to Untap and attack again so I'm assume in if you attack once then flicker her she counts as a new one adding on a third attack phase? As in each new entrance she makes and attacks your getting another attacks with 3 shifts in hand I see what 6 attacks phases in one turn I think

Well now THAT would be too sweet. Can someone confirm this?

I think if u had multiple cloudshifts you could flicker her multiple times. I'm thinking it would work out as follows
Attack, cloudshift, attack, attack.

With Ajani's ability, making her double strike ... Epic. Anyhow, any ideas for a sideboard?  Possibly changing out doomed traveler for Ash Zealot?

No need to confirm anything... It works exactly how described...

She attacks, bcs she attacked it gave u extra combat phase... Flick her and she comes to play reseted... When she attacks she will provide u extra combat phase again...

BTW: I would squeeze at least 2 {Hellrider}s there and put  {Thalia, Guardian of Thraben} to sideboard... Definitely  {Ash Zealot} is better choice then traveler...

So would that be 3 or 4 combat phases?
