Hey everyone,
Welcome back to more Friday Night Magic. Tonight I'm playing a red white Boros cheap tricks heroics deck by Kryder from No Goblins Allowed. This deck was originally created by Hakeem from the same forum. Click here to check it out!
This deck is focused mainly on playing cheap and efficient creatures, and buffing them up with cheap but powerful enchantment auras. The idea is to get everything out as fast as possible (generally the case with red) and win quickly.
The advantages of this deck are its speed and how quickly creatures can grow as a result of those enchantments. Often times it catches an opponent off guard, and as they scramble to mitigate the last few points of their life total, it's already too late.
Sadly, I feel that as great as this deck is, there are several disadvantages too (as with any deck). Namely, if you don't win in the first 6-7 turns or so, as time goes on you will have a more and more difficult time being able to secure a victory. Small creatures buffed up are great, but without those buffs they are often 1/1's or just slightly bigger, easily taken out by the game's plethora of removal spells (especially burn).
As fun as this deck was to play, it definitely doesn't suit my own playstyle. That alone however doesn't make this deck bad by any means. It certainly has the power and legs to carry it into a finish. The problem is, those legs being severed prematurely before they can do what they need to do ;)
I hope you enjoyed this week's video, and invite you to join me next week, as well as throughout the week for regularly scheduled content.
I'm already planning the next Monday series, which will follow the current series about Magic learning how to play as a new player. If you have any suggestions, please share your ideas in the comments below!
Have a great one guys!
