Notes:
The deck I'm building to play with my friends. Fun times ensue. Suggestions, advice, and criticism are always welcome!

Looks like fun.
So you use {spitemare} and {boros reckoner} to get damage to your opponent, while giving lifelink to them to offset the damage from {volcanic hellion}?
Seems legit. Have fun with this thing, I'm gonna be stuck with this idea for a while.

NovusOrbis

Yeah it's a really fun deck! I use {Nearhearth Pilgrim} to give {Volcano Hellion} lifelink as it enters the battlefield and then deal the damage to Reckoner or {Spitemare} for an infinite life/ damage combo.
Tokens are in for damage and chumps and for {Chain Reaction} and {Blasphemous Act}.

Kaylesh

Ah, yes, of course. Pick any amount of damage. Your life total won't change, so you just say 300 or something. GG

Okay that is ultra cool and I'm revamping my {Boros Reckoner} deck. +1 for an epic deck.

Thanks man! I've contemplated adding {Path To Exile} and {Boros Charm}, but I like how it runs now. The only problem I have on MTGO with this is that a majority of the games I either have no land or get flooded. Do you think I should balance out the land base, or is 22 a decent number?

LinkCelestrial

I'd probably run this at 23-24 lands. Then again I like running a couple extra as i get screwed often and usually try to implement a mana sink. Better too much land than not enough cause at least you can cast something. If 22 isn't working out try 23.
