Deck overview

This deck is a go-wide Boros combat deck commanded by Aurelia, the Law Above. The primary plan focuses on establishing an early board presence of small creatures and tokens during Turns 1 through 3, followed by casting Aurelia on Turn 4 to immediately trigger card draw through her attack ability. On Turn 5, the deck scales into a critical threat by attacking with five or more creatures alongside massive damage amplifiers such as Shared Animosity, Blade Historian, or Warleader's Call. This triggers Aurelia's global burn ability and inflicts heavy combat damage across the table, closing out the game by Turn 7. The list is supported by a comprehensive suite of defensive instants including Boros Charm, Clever Concealment, and Flare of Fortitude to preserve board state, while leveraging Sunforger to tutor answers on demand.
