Title: Heroic Red
Post by: Ekann1 on November 11, 2013, 08:32:28 PM
Thoughts anyone? It's  a list I found on a tcgplayer article with a splash of white for boros charm. Anyone have ideas for sideboard cards against mono blue devotion?

4 {Sacred Foundry}
13 {Mountain}

17 lands


4 {Akroan Crusader}
4 {Firedrinker Satyr}
4 {Ash Zealot}
4 {Legion Loyalist}
4 {Foundry Street Denizen}
4 {Rakdos Cackler}
3 {Arena Athlete}

27 creatures


4 {Lightning Strike}
3 {Boros Charm}
3 {Titan's Strength}
3 {Dragon Mantle}
3 {Madcap Skills}

16 other spells


Sideboard

1 {Pithing Needle}
4 {Peak Eruption}
4 {Shock}
1 {Coordinated Assault}
4 {Skullcrack}
1 {Nivmagus Elemental}

Sideboard changes:

-1 shock
-1 peak eruption
+2 mizzium mortars

Mostly for getting rid of {Blood Baron of Vizkopa}

Unless you've play tested this to show the contrary, I think 17 mana is way too optimistic. I would expect mana drought to be a problem

Now that I look at it, there are only 2 kinds of creatures with Heroic here. You might want to lean either more boros or more rdw

I've tested it, and it does work on 17 lands. Sometimes I can't get a second land, but it usually works. I guess more white would be a good idea. Maybe fabled hero? Works well with titans strength and dragon mantle.
