Deck Description

Hey guys,

This is my casual RW Double strike modern deck, the general idea, all creatures have double stike and we use low cost equipment to give boost them up and add trample.

Sideboard
The swords in the sideboard are just options that could be included, I'm toying with the concept of adding protection but this deck is aggro and I'm not sure having protection at turn 4 and 5 matters all that much

As for Sunstriker and Skirmisher, they have double strike and flying which no other creature in the main does, so just another defensive option but as they say the best defence is offensive.

Dispatch in this deck works really well as we basically always have 3 artifacts

Budget version
For those who love a budget deck I made an alternate version for around $10 it can be found here;

How to Play

The idea is to play this as an aggro double strike deck

Turn 1 - ideally Kor Duelist, or a 1 drop equipment Bonesplitter is a solid option as it only has 1 equip cost
Turn 2 - Kor first turn means you can play and equip Bonesplitter this turn, so Kor is a 3/1 with DS from this point on playing aggressive is the best option.

Win conditions
This deck synergies reasonably well, the main wins cons come from equipping trample or death touch

The way the deck plays If I get Kor I tend to not play warren, I either load up on Kor or start building up equipment for Flamespeaker or Markov,

Some good combinations include;

Kor + Bonesplitter + Naginata = 6/1 with DS and Trample all on turn 3
Flamespeaker + Bonesplitter + Banshee's Blade
Markov + Banshee's Blade + Naginata

The good thing about Banshee's Blade is that the counters stay on after the creature is gone. This helps to keep a strong lone of creatures coming.

Maybe get some equipment dig
I would also main board Mirran Crusaders just because black and green are so common in modern.
Maybe put in something like a protection card or instead of equipment you could run Enchantments since only Kor is getting any bonus from artifacts// Mad Cap Skills is one of my favorite cheap aggro enchantments
