Overview:

A combat-focused Boros deck led by Raiyuu, Storm's Edge that aims to win through single-attacker combat damage, leveraging equipment and additional combat phases to deal significant damage.

Primer:

This deck employs a "Voltron" strategy, focusing on powering up a single attacker (often the commander) with various equipment and enchantments. Raiyuu, Storm's Edge provides additional combat phases when attacking alone, which can lead to explosive turns when combined with the deck's suite of equipment and combat tricks.

The deck includes various protection pieces and equipment tutors to maintain board presence, while also featuring a selection of Samurai and Warriors that can benefit from Raiyuu's ability. The artifact package provides both ramp and equipment-based value, while the instant-speed interaction helps protect key creatures during critical turns.

Weaknesses:

The deck is heavily reliant on its commander and combat damage, making it vulnerable to removal and board wipes. The mana base could be improved with more dual lands and fetch lands to ensure consistent early game development. The deck also struggles against heavy control strategies and lacks sufficient card draw to recover from setbacks.

• Resilience: 5/10
• Consistency: 4/10
• Interaction: 5/10

Rating Justification:

This deck operates at a casual power level, with its combat-focused strategy typically aiming to win around turn 10-12. While it includes some powerful equipment and protection pieces, it lacks the explosive ramp and consistent card draw needed to compete at higher power levels. The deck would struggle against optimized casual decks (5.0+) due to its reliance on combat damage and vulnerability to removal, but could hold its own against other casual decks in the 4.0 range.

Final power level rating: 4.0 - 4.5
