This is the first deck I've built, and I'm new to the forums. This deck was designed to be creature-heavy and midrange style. I'm trying to keep it under $20. The reason some really good cards are not playsets is because Card Kingdom didn't have them in stock. Maybe you guys can help me organize it a bit better or suggest cards to replace. I'm very open to anything suggested as I am a complete beginner at deckbuilding. Thanks!
I don’t see anything that deals with multiple card types. I have a Boros aggro/mid-range hybrid that can kill without attacking if needed, but even so I play four Oblivion Ring to deal with ench/artif/lands/planeswalkers/indestructibles etc that might slow down my creature assaults. O Ring is sbout $.50 per copy online.
Edit: oops, Invoke the Divine. Anyway, some extra removal might help. If you want to keep Lightning Strike effects, Lightning Bolt and Lightning Helix are both better by either dropping cmc or adding lifegain. Both spells cost about $4 each online, though. Warleader’s Helix are 4 cmc, but do 4 damage and gain you 4 life for about $.30 per card.
Spark Trooper is about $.50 per card online and gives some fast damage with lifegain. I don’t believe in telling you to redesign a deck, I rarely do it when someone does the same to me. But, Boros is great for doing damage while giving you life to double the life swing. It might not be an ideal optimization, but it is pretty fun. Firemane Avenger and Invoke the Divine have already started you on that path.
Also, for a creature based deck, Boros Charm gives great options in all modes for about $2.50 per copy. I know some of those cards are a bit spendy compared to others in your list, but can be nice upgrades if they fit with the theme you go with. Have fun! Boros is a kick.
Thanks for the tips! I will definitely look into some of your suggestions.
Also I accidentally put Lightning Strike instead of Bolt so I guess we were on the same page there.
Pepe you might consider territorial hammerskull instead of the ahn-crop crasher. its a recurring effect each turn as opposed to every other turn but it doesnt have haste
