{Boros Reckoner}

Seconded

Instead of ?

spark trooper

No way spark trooper is a beast. He is a clutch player in this deck

Boros Reckoner is about as good as it gets. Seriously, at least try sideboarding two troopers and have at least two Reckoners mainboard

I have used reckoner, it is good but dies to a lightning strike and my deck works off of lifegain and tokens. But I'm still gonna try to fit in reckoner

That's one less lightning strike going to you and one more going to them

If this is a boros deck, where are the creatures?:P

Usually {R}{W} plays lots of creatures, and spark troopers don't last very long...

I'm not sure if you saw the title but it's a midrange deck which means it's got an early game control method with later game finishers. Midrange decks usually only run about 12-15 total creatures and mostly hey are huge threats.

Yes it's midrange. Midrange boros dosent need a lot of creatures. And spark trooper is lifelink for me for early damge comeback and a big hitter mid way

That's why I'm saying to just sideboard two of 'em and main board some reckoners

I might try it. This is the deck I'm taking to Grand Prix cincinati. Think it will hold up?

Depends on if you can take down Black White control and if you have a good quick answer to DDemon. Those are two things I just can't seem to do whith really anything.

Oh ok I didn't know what the mid meant.

{chained to the rocks} is a good answer to {desecration demon}
