Deck overview

This is a Boros Equipment Voltron deck helmed by Lightning, Army of One, whose Stagger ability doubles all damage dealt to any player he connects with until your next turn. The plan is to suit Lightning up with double strike and power equipment, connect once to turn on Stagger, then chain extra combat steps - Aurelia, the Warleader, Aggravated Assault, Combat Celebrant, Genji Glove, Full Throttle - so every subsequent hit deals doubled damage. Kediss, Emberclaw Familiar spreads that doubled damage to the whole table, and Fiery Emancipation multiplies it further. Backup wins include Aurelia's self-untap infinite-combat loop, an Aggravated Assault + The Reaver Cleaver treasure engine, and Heartless Hidetsugu one-shotting a Staggered player. A dense protection suite (Boros Charm, Surge of Salvation, Mithril Coat, Voice of Victory) shields the kill turn.
