Deck Description

This deck was inspired by a Knight build and I hope to keep it true by that. The general idea is to get Double Strike and just...beat the crap out of them. Perhaps I should label this a Beatdown, but we'll see.

How to Play

Playing this deck is very simple. You want to attack as often as possible and kill the enemy as efficiently as possible. [Gaze of Justice] and Lightning Helix will definitely add to lack of control this deck possess and capitalize on keeping the enemy monster count very low. The fewer blockers, the better off Double Strike will be.

Deck discussion for Bro Knights

Hey there! This is a nice deck, but I think you're using too much Mountains for only 6 red cards.
Eldrazi Monument is really painful here. Specially if Knight Exemplar already give you're knights indestructible.
Honor of the Pure is a better choice.

agreed honor of the pure is a better choice and maybe archtype of courage

I would change Glory of Warfare for Concerted effort. Great deck though!

Nice deck, i would add 2x archetype of courage into the sideboard just in case you run against another first-strike based deck.

Thank you for the advice. I added the changes to the deck and now it really looks terrifying! Can't wait to build it.

I'd have to add in Boros Charm and Fabled Hero.

I do like the idea of adding Boros Charm. Either take out their creatures or protect your own (if they try to do something like board-wipe).
Other than that, this deck is fantastic! Great work!

I agree with this. Currently, the only red cards in the deck are 4x helix. At this point, either decide if you're still Boros or Mono W.

What's Concerted Effort here for? Double-Strike and Flying are about the only two. You can run Kinsbaile Cavalier instead.

Kinsbaile does not grant flying though

I don't wanna mess too much with a good idea but if you want my take on the deck, here's a few suggestions:
3-4 honor of the pure.
Cavern of souls. Lots of them.
a few swords (fire & ice\light & shadow\ war & peace, etc)
1 or 2 of Ajani, Caller of The Pride
More dual colour lands. Sacred Foundery, maybe clifftop retreat.
and maybe 1 or 2 Door of Destinies.

And sideboard:
Path to Exile. It sucks to let your opponent ramp for free but sometimes you need to deal with things turn 1 or 2.
Boros charm: hitting with indestructable creatures? or in a long game, dropping Wrath of God and responding to it with Boros charm? If you add any equipments, its doubble strike escaletes very quickly after they declare blockers and it's good even as a combat trick some times.
Also: worth mention, lightning bolt. It's not original but there's a reason it's been a staple for so long.
Frontline medic. Stop Sphinx's revelatin, stops fireball, stops a lot of things actually but also has the advantage of letting your vigilance creatures just throw themselves mindlessly at the enemy.

But remember, these are only suggestions, and taking on all of them would water down the deck too much. I'd just like to see this deck in a GP one day;P

It's only splash red for lightning helix? Even though it's a good card to sure if needed.

Agreed. Could just go mono white and use Emeria, the Sky Ruin or something.

I have to agree about adding a couple of the mirran swords. since its when the creature deals damage to a player it gets crazy very quickly with double strike and mirran crusader is an excellent choice for putting them on. Concerted effort is also wonderful with the crusader out. Id personally add fire and ice and body and mind. With concerted effort it'll give you pro all colors.
