Boros Combo

[ghostfire86]

With the upcoming of Dominaria I have been able to tweak an existing design to an old deck and make it faster. The key card is:
Dauntless Bodyguard
Cost- W
Creature — Human Knight
As Dauntless Bodyguard enters the battlefield, choose another creature you control.
Sacrifice Dauntless Bodyguard: The chosen creature gains indestructible until end of turn.
2/1

The original design was based off of Stuffy Combo which was Stuffy Doll and Guilty Conscience.

Deck List:

Lands (22)
4x Arid Mesa
4x Clifftop Retreat
2x Karakas
2x Mountain
2x Plains
4x Plateau
4x Sacred Foundry

Creatures (21)
4x Mogg Maniac
4x Mother of Runes
3x Dauntless Bodyguard
4x Stoneforge Mystic
4x Boros Reckoner
2x Volcano Hellion

Artifacts (3)
1x Darksteel Plate
1x Pariah's Shield
1x Quietus Spike

Aura (4)
4x Guilty Conscience

Spells (10)
2x Enlightened Tutor
4x Faithless Looting
4x Boros Charm


The main combo runs off of Mogg Maniac or Boros Reckoner, Guilty Conscience, and Dauntless Bodyguard or Boros Charm. The fastest this combo can be dropped is with Mogg Maniac casted on turn 2 to set the stage and on turn three using the rest to make him create infinite damage to the opponent. This will of course create and infinite loop that can have a draw back of causing a draw if the opponent has something in play like platinum angel, otherwise state based actions recognize the opponent at 0 life ending the game for a win.

I also love an additional combo piece to this deck that bypasses Turbo Fog decks by using Volcano Hellion to do damage lethal enough to kill the opponent on either Mogg Maniac or Boros Reckoner. This combo has to be planed well because if your life total is not higher than the opponent then the combo will actually kill you first. The routes around the dilemma is Pariah's Shield or Quietus Spike. Pariah's Shield took the place of Pariah because it becomes easier to fetch and set up with Stoneforge Mystic.

The deck's low cmc often creates the issue of emptying your hand quickly and trying to top deck. I enlisted the help of Faithless Looting to pull more cards, while discarding the excess you don't need like extra lands, and Enlightened Tutor, which can get both the equipments, if desperate, or get Guilty Conscience.
