Boros in EDH... Neat ideas?

Main Deck (24 cards)

Sideboard (0 cards)

No sideboard found.

The owner of this deck hasn't added a sideboard, they probably should...

Submit a list of cards below to bulk import them all into your sideboard. Post one card per line using a format like "4x Birds of Paradise" or "1 Blaze", you can even enter just the card name by itself like "Wrath of God" for single cards.


Deck Description

This is a list of every commander in EDH in the Boros color pairing, including the partners from Battlebond. And if there is one thing to know about Boros, it's that the like to just punch face. I want to make a boros deck that isn't aggro, at least not as the primary win condition, but... all of them just hit hard!

Adriana: Makes dude's stronger when hitting multiple people
Agrus Kos: Buffs other creatures when he attacks
Akiri: Gets bigger for every artifact
Anax and Cymede: Buffs everyone when you target them
Anya: Gets huge when players are below half life
Archangel Avacyn//Avacyn, The Purifier: Indestructible on front side, flips and bolts everything.
New Aurelia: Buffs a creature when she swings
Old Aurelia: Gives another combat step
Basandra: Protects dudes in combat, and forces attacks
Brion: Literally throws dudes
Bruse Tarl: Gives Double Strike and Lifelink on ETB and Attack
Depala: Anthem for vehicles and dwarves, and digs for more vehicles and dwarves.
Firesong and Sunspeaker: Gives life for burning people, burns people for gaining life.
Gisela: Doubles your damage, halves your opponents.
Iroas: Menace and stops damage dealt to your attackers
Jor Kadeen: Buff team when Metalcraft is active
Kalemne: Gets big for playing high cmc creatures
Khorvath and Sylvia: Buff Knights and dragons with Flying, Double Strike, and Haste.
Munda: The only one I could find that isn't fully aggro. Basically makes all Ally creatures an Ally version of Brass Herald
Razia: Redirects damage
Old Tajic: Gets bigger when you swing with a big board
New Tajic: Stops non-combat damage, and makes small dudes big
Tiana: Recurs auras and equipment for Voltron builds.

Does anyone know how to build a deck type for boros that isn't aggro? Maybe a combo deck?

Deck discussion for Boros in EDH... Neat ideas?

Boros made for aggro, but I must admit I know one combo. Old Aurelia go infinite with Helm of The Host.

Yeah, but I mean a combo DECK. A deck with multiple win condition combos.

Well you can build deck around that combo or add in Kiki-Jiki with Felidar Guardian/Village Bell ringer. Equipment easy to tutor.

True... but having just one combo in a deck means the combo is kinda frail.

Archangel Avacyn is a Boros commander since her flip side has the color identity red.
