Deck overview

This is a Boros lifegain-aggro midrange deck helmed by Bre of Clan Stoutarm. The core plan floods the board with cheap lifegain triggers (Soul Warden, Soul's Attendant, Guide of Souls, Auriok Champion, Daxos, Blessed by the Sun), then uses Bre's end-step impulse to exile and free-cast spells whose mana value is less than or equal to life gained that turn. Exile-cast payoffs (Nalfeshnee, Keeper of Secrets, Passionate Archaeologist, Wild-Magic Sorcerer, Laelia, the Blade Reforged) convert those free spells into damage and value, while classic lifegain finishers (Angel of Destiny, Aetherflux Reservoir, Archangel of Thune, Heliod, Sun-Crowned) and go-wide combat (Adeline, Resplendent Cathar, Aurelia, the Warleader, Akroma's Will) close games. The deck wins through combat damage, life-total differential kills, and opportunistic burn rather than infinite combos.
