If you want aggro then market is better than ash zealot.  Haste should be big for you to do damage quickly and attack every turn with as many creatures as possible.  You are also right about being easier to cast.
Thanks. I made the changes(only had 3 Maulers) but hopefully my deck is more consistent now. Just need to score 4 Champion of the Parish and I'll be all set.

Does anyone think replacing the {Ash Zealot} cards with {Lightning Mauler} would be better? Would be less locked into that one color and would hand off haste.
Also was thinking of going to 4 total {Boros Elite} to speed the deck up.

Free Trade / Aurelia Foil

I pulled that {Aurelia, the Warleader} today. I'd be willing to trade it for 4 {Champion of the Parish} and a few other cards. After looking everywhere, I'm valuing it at $29. Lmk  in PM of possible.
Just had surgery so will reply ASAP :)

I bought 5 packs since they were still on sale for 3.48 each. Here are my pulls:
Pack 1: {Boros Reckoner} needed badly
Pack 2: {Aurelia, The Warleader} FOIL and next to it was an {Angelic Skirmisher}
Pack3: {Lazav, Dimir Mastermind}
Pack4: {Lord of the Void}
Pack 5: {Whispering Madness}

I'M NEVER THIS LUCKY LOL

Would just use two at the most, they are good but could screw you over if you have too many as its all colourless.

Cool, thx.

Was worried about that as well if I went 4.

I just go 4 {Slayer Stronghold} cards. Seems perfect for this deck. How many do you think I should add?

Free Trade / Boros needs
March 24, 2013, 06:07:47 PM
I have some pretty good cards in my TB but need some good ones as well. These are my absolute priorities right now:
3x {Aurelia's Fury}
4x{Champion of the Parish}
1x{Mizzium Mortars}
1x{Ash Zealot}
2x{Sacred Foundry}

Pm me if you have these. I'm dealing with bad kidneys so apologies for any slow replies, however I am trying to reply ASAP :)

{Mizzium Mortars} saved my butt so many times! One time a guy had some wicked combo that allowed him to make tons of tokens, so on my turn I used overload and wiped his massive army out and hit with my Boros guys.
Basically it really came in handy against other Boros decks, even taking out {Aurelia, the Warleader}

Hey, I finished 5 th out of 20 people with this deck! Pretty good for me! Working for a trade to get Parish, but do have 4 Legion Loyalists now.
Crushed a lot of people using Hellrider and Mizzium Mortars cleared the board for me twice

Thanks for the tips all! Will keep trying to improve this

Rules / Tournament sideboard rules
March 20, 2013, 04:32:40 PM
I am curious, is it that you can sideboard only between games in a single round and not between rounds? 
That's what someone at the LGS I go to said and I wanted to make sure that that is correct.
Thanks

I think you need to decide what is the main colour of the deck. Going from Champion to Ash Zealot to Silverblade is very tough on the mana.

If you go white, use  {Champion of the Parish} {Knight of Glory}  {Precinct Captain}  {War Falcon} {Thalia, Guardian of Thraben} and {Boros Elite} for the early drops.

If red, you want {Ash Zealot}  {Stromkirk Noble} {Rakdos Cackler} {Burning-Tree Emissary} {Lightning Mauler} {Stonewright}

I think the 3 and 4 drops are fine. Be sure to take 4  {Searing Spear} and 3-4  {Boros Charm} as well.

Cool Ty.

So u guys all think I should dump the 2 Mizzium Mortars and put in two more Searing Spears? I thought having the ability to hit a creature for 4, or overload and hit all their creatures for 4 was worth taking down the direct damage option by two due to the clearing of the blockers that card could produce.
But if you guys think the versatility of spear is better, I'll go w that.
Thanks again

I def need Champion! Legion Loyalist and Boros Elite aren't the best 1 drops in the world for sure.
I'd you get ahold of the Champions I would run all 3 to be honest. They actually are pretty good 1-drops, {Boros Elite} can deal some very quick damage.

Hmm what would you yank to go 4-4-4 with those 3? Or would you go 4-4-4?
I think I would, or maybe more like this:
-3 {Gather the Townsfolk}
-1 {Legion Loyalist}
+4 {Champion of the Parish}

I don't know is you even need Gather once you get to that point, and Champion is a 4-of before Loyalist in this deck.

Cool. Ty man! Gives me a good structure to work with as I get new cards and integrate them! That seems a lot more synergistic than what I have right now.

I got another {Assemble the Legion} and {Aurelia, the Warleader} tonight(I got ghost council and duskmantle seer too all in 4 Walmart packs lol) anyway, think I should yank the seance and put in the other Assemble the Legion and yank something else to have two Aurelia's in there?
Two Aurelia's seems like s bit much without ramp
That's what I was thinking. That 6 cost in what is essentially a low cost horde type deck probably would be a bit much.
