Deck overview

This deck is a focused Boros Equipment Aggro build commanded by Nahiri, Forged in Fury. Its primary strategy leverages cheap self-attaching equipment, For Mirrodin! cards, and Living Weapon tokens to quickly establish a wide, equipped board. This presence reduces Nahiri's casting cost to as little as two mana via affinity. Once on the board, attacking with equipped creatures triggers Nahiri to exile cards and cast revealed equipment for free, rapidly accelerating mana velocity and board power. The deck finishes games through aggressive combat damage augmented by double strike, stat multipliers like Nettlecyst, and extra combat phases from Hexplate Wallbreaker. It features strong card advantage engines such as Puresteel Paladin and Sram, Senior Edificer, efficient white spot removal, and resilient token-generating backup plans.
