It's Boros time, baby! The jankiest color in multiplayer brings to you the jankiest of commanders: Firesong and Sunspeakerimage! This commander is really cool-looking at first, but goddamn it is SO hard to get it to do anything significant. Let's start off with the ridiculous 6 mana cost. That's enough to make you think twice about playing them in Historic Brawl. Now let's look at the admittedly sweet abilities: Red instants and sorceries you control have lifelink. Rad, that's cool. White instant and sorceries that gain you life cause our commander to deal 3 damage to target player or creature. Wait, what? NO PLANESWALKERS? THANKS, WOTC!

Ok so this deck certainly isn't good, but it can be pretty sweet sometimes. It's a Boros control deck that wins on the basis of burn damage. With plenty of removal, direct damage, and healing, this deck definitely isn't one you want to race against. We have a lot of board clears and a decent amount of direct damage. Unfortunately, we do have a bit of an issue dealing with planeswalkers and there's the whole problem of getting card draw and ramp in Boros. I've done my absolute darndest here to try and make something playable out of this while mantaining its meme status. So let me present to you, the deck:

The Ramp and Card Draw:

imageimageimageimageimageimageimageimageimageimageimage

For those people who say Boros doesn't have any ramp and card draw: you're right. But we're trying our best here, ok? We run a whole plethora of mana rocks, most of which give us the ability to both draw cards and ramp up, depending on the situation. We run the excellent Arcane Signetimage for the fixing, Treasure Map // Treasure Coveimage to fix our draws and give us treasure later, Azor's Gateway // Sanctum of the Sunimage to loot through our deck and eventually set up a win condition, and Mind Stoneimage for extra ramp and emergency draw at the 2 mana slot. We also run Boros Locketimage for more ramp and card draw, Primal Amulet // Primal Wellspringimage to cheapen all our instants and sorceries and eventually give us some extra oomph from our spells, and Giled Lotus as just a huge mana rock that can possibly help us get our stuff in gear. I'd recommmend mulliganing aggressively for a few of these at your start, as our cards are extremely expensive and we can really use getting on the board early. For extra explosive mana we run Irencrag Featimage which, together with all our copy spells, can give us a TON of mana (note, a copy does not count as casting a spell). We run a Dawn of Hopeimage to draw cards off all our red removal, Pirate's Pillageimage to set up for explosive turns, and Jaya Ballardimage to help us both cycle through our useless cards and give us a 3 red mana to use for our big spells.

The Early Defense:

imageimageimageimageimageimageimageimage

This part of the deck still feels a little lacking, but I tried my hardest to put the best-value-per-card removal in here. We run Shivan Fireimage to either destroy early mana dorks or deal with a medium-sized threat later. Electrostatic Fieldimage is a decent blocker early on, and chips a bit off our opponent's health as we get rid of their threats. Justice Strikeimage is pretty excellent in this deck, being prime removal for big power threats as well as being relevant to both of our commander's lines of text. Bonecrusher Giantimage can be decent removal early on and provide a decent blocking body. We run both Flame Sweepimage and Deafening Clarionimage for early board sweeps, and we could possibly run a Fiery Cannonadeimage but I thought that was going too hard against the weenie strategies. For further removal we run Response // Resurgenceimage to get rid of medium-sized attackers and Integrity // Interventionimage, which can actually go face for some fun trigger-based kills if copied enough times.

The Board Clears:

imageimageimageimageimage

Well we are in Boros, and if there's one thing White still does a little bit better than all other colors, it's board clears. We run all three excellent white spells in Settle the Wreckageimage, Cleansing Novaimage, and Realm-Cloaked Giantimage. We could be running Planar Cleansingimage as well, but the mana cost and lack of synergy with our nonsense made me think twice about it. We could probably be running it over Irencrag Featimage or Inescapable Blazeimage but I like having the potential damage. On the red end of things we have Solar Blazeimage which if cast with our commander can give us quite a healthy bit of life gain. Finally, Star of Extenction is just a ridiculous card, works rather well with one of our silly combos, and would give us an insane amount of lifegain if cast with our commander.

The Finishers:

imageimageimageimageimageimageimageimage

Okay, this section seems a bit heavy, but look at all that damage! Doublecastimage and Repeated Reverberationimage all bring our spells to the nextest of levels, and casting the first into the second will let you copy your next spell this turn 4 times! For the big direct damage spells we run Inescapable Blazeimage and Sundering Strokeimage, both of which could be used as emergency removal in case things get too dicy. Finally, we have our multitude of big X-cost spells. Banefireimage and Electrodominanceimage synergize really well with our Azor's Gateway // Sanctum of the Sunimage + lifegain strategy, and can just be a way to close the game. We run one Finale of Promiseimage as another way to recur these instants and sorceries from the graveyard and cast them for extra value or damage. Finally, we run one Sanguine Sacramentimage as a way to gain insane amounts of health against aggressive decks. Note, even though the card says you gain X life twice, it counts as only one trigger, which really sucks, but having a lot of health helps us use our big spells more aggressively.

The Truefire Shenanigans:

imageimage

I did everything I could to keep this combo in the deck. These are the real cards that should be replaced, one with Fiery Cannonadeimage and the other with Planar Cleansingimage. If you want to win more, go with those. But this combo is so sweet I couldn't resist. Truefire Captainimage is already pretty good with our Star of Extinctionimage as a big face damage board clear. Gideon's Sacrificeimage, if we have it in our hand while we have Truefire Captainimage in play, can be a ridiculous redirect damage spell that can kill our opponents if they decide to do too much damage to us. It's really sweet, but there's probably a better deck for it? I have no idea.

The Lands:

imageimageimageimageimageimageimageimage

Oh god why do I choose to write about these? Does anyone even read this damn far into the writeups? Alright, Boros Historic manabase. We have 3 Plains and 6 Mountains, 5 dual-colored lands, a Fabled Passge, and a Command Towerimage. Arch of Orazcaimage can help us get card draw later in the game if it stalls out, Blast Zoneimage is some decent extra removal, and Castle Ardenvaleimage and Mobilized Districtimage give us some extra board presence in this deck with only 3 creatures other than the commander. Cryptic Cavesimage is dicey, but the extra card can really come in handy, and Detection Towerimage should help us cast a lot of our direct-damage spells on pesky hexproof creatures. We run one Field of Ruinimage to nuke those annoying lands, like the Field of the Deadimage we also run because the board presence is decent enough. And that's it! Go sling spells with this weird commander, and hope to not get everything countered by a blue deck!

Most of these decks are atrocious, some are just bad.

If I did not include a specific mythic or rare card it is because I do not own it yet for I am a plebian.

Feel free to take any of these ideas and make them your own, I do not 'own' any of these decks and I probably have NOT made the right card decisions.
