Hey, all. So, when I saw Nyxborn Rollicker, I began thinking about some sort of RW aggro deck that focused on cheap bestow and old favorites like Ethereal Armor to alternatively voltron or swarm the opponent.
This is a current list that I really like. It is a skill testing deck - knowing when to drop an armor, when to swarm and when to suit up, etc - is something I definitely haven't mastered yet. I'd love to hear some feedback.
Basic Strategy: Try to drop solid 1-2 drops and get in early. You'll eventually grab a bestow package with either the Eidolon of Countless Battles, Nysborn Shieldmate, or the game-winning Ethereal armor. Curve stops at 4 with 2x Ajani's Chosen and 2x Heliod, God of the Sun, which give us insane value for dropping enchantments as well as some flood insurance. Both of them out at once is crazy (2WW: Put 2 2/x creatures on to the field). Brave the elements works against Targeted removal, as well as a solidly aggressive way to just steal a victory, especially in a mono-colored meta. Boros Charm works as insurance against Supreme Verdict, as well as another way to just steal a victory.
Let me know what you think - this deck is very fun to play, and I think it might be interesting you y'all as well.

This deck is not going to reliably hit 5 mana many games, though this would be good against mono R aggro. Side out some low drop cards, side in those for the high end?
