Notes:
Pre-GTC Boros Humans. If uncontrolled/unblocked, a turn 4/5 win is consistent. Otherwise, cloudshift/faith's shield to avoid removal, shield and Doric for unblockable, and pillar and o ring for removal. Comments? Suggestions? I'm open to anything. Also, I want to main board 2 Thalia, but I'm not sure where I could open a slot for her.

In mine I also run {Vigilante Justice} and {Thatcher Revolt} for some extra punch.

I may consider {Vigilante Justice}, but in my opinion {Thatcher Revolt} is nothing more than champion counters. Sure, 3 1/1 hasters, but not the board presence I'm looking for. Thanks for your opinion.

Ahh yes, I also forgot to mention I also run a 2 of {Goldnight Commander} and {Cathars' Crusade} each.

You run cathar's crusade but not thatcher revolt? That's a ball lightning.

This. Boros means haste. I want to win. Fast.

Looks pretty fast, maybe {Riders of Gavony} or although not human, {Hellrider} to top out the curve.
Also agreed with dropping {Stonewright} for {Doomed Traveler}

Mothaelon · October 31, 2012, 03:45:45 PM

Definitely agree with hellrider to top the curve

Kerebrus · October 31, 2012, 05:02:12 PM

Are there no {vexing devil}s because its not human?

{Ash Zealot} is a beast in the current meta, also if you want some punch you could always use {Silver-Inlaid Dagger} even fencing ace becomes a threat with it. {Splatter Thug} and surprisingly {Instigator Gang} has some scary potential, and it's a sure way to bate out kill spells, and {Rally the Peasants} with its flashback can beat an opponent from nowhere.
