I always liked this wedge color the most, Necra is second best, but I really need some help on the removal options and some card-drawing would be really helpful. Here's what I have so far.
After testing the previous version on Cockatrice, I had a bad problem with tokens and fliers in general, so that's why I put Nighthawk and Illness in the deck, removing Orzhov Charm because I couldn't gain back the life I lost from the creatures toughness.
High Priest used to be a playset, but he became a situational card in hand quickly, because there would be no point in playing him.
Any advice at all would be very useful, I'd appreciate it.
Boros reckoner is awesome, and... is cockatrice back because as of a couple week Ago...
Faithless Looting shouldn't really be played at all outside of Reanimator decks. If you want card draw, you're better off with Think Twice.
If you have access to Snapcaster Mage, people usually run 2-4 of it in this deck. You may also want 1-2 hard counterspells in your 75. Speaking of which, do you have a sideboard put together? If not, what matchups do you expect to face?
no real sideboard, the looting is basically just a little help for the harvest pyre, but i feel like it works with snapcasters as well... unless the looting really is unplayable
If you want to help me with a sideboard it would be great
Drop flunkies for Burning Tree emissay and krenkos command for lightning mauler Also drop 1 mizzuim mortars for another hellrider and 1 pillar of flame for another land
Hi everyone, I've recently become competitive and I've modified my Red Deck Wins since GTC came out and I've been stomping over every deck I face with it unless they are RDW's as well. It does need tweaking as I've been testing it with just the cards I have and to see how new cards work out.
I put Piller in Sideboard because the meta has changed and devour flesh just does a better job and its instant.
Reverberate has been amazingly awesome. Most of the time I just copy my own singing spear. Its also great for copying your opponents removal, or counterspell, and if you have the mana you can copy a sphinx's revelation.
Tragic slip: I side this in against agro decks. It kills boros decks, it stops that 6/1 lifelink trample guy and then you win.
The boros reckoner I've found actually meh. He does a good job but unless your doing those crazy combos that W/R decks do he's only ok.
Legion Loyalist: don't know why I don't see alot of this guy in popular decks. He's not a 1 drop though. First strike and trample is why he is here. It makes every other creature deadly in this deck - chainwalkers especially. He is a 1/1 so pairing him with a stonewright is killer. I usually play him between turns 3-5, depending on board state.
Glaring Spotlight: its in here for the second ability. making my creatures unblockable. Against other agro decks the board usually stalls into creatures on both sides not being able to get through because of unfavorable blocks. Keep this in your hand, play it, sac it, and swing for the win. The first ability is ok against Ghost of Saint Taft but Devour Flesh is in here to take care of those types of guys.
I love america decks and Boros reckoner is my favorite card since Hellrider so i wanted to make a deck out of this. This deck is based off of the lucky charms deck with a little more removal removal. I also need help making a sideboard.
I dont like loyalist, but you can keep him if you have tested well with him, i would replace him with Rakdos Cackler I would replace martial glory with ghor-clan rampager because it is very versatile. I would consider Lightning Mauler over madcap skills.
Also Boros reckoner is insane if you can get your hands on him.
Gideon is meh...
I dont think assemble the legion is necessary either. unless it tests well, then by all means use it.

That's what i was thinking
I would cut bonfires for 2 more land to help get those thundermaws out.
no real sideboard, the looting is basically just a little help for the harvest pyre, but i feel like it works with snapcasters as well... unless the looting really is unplayable
