I've played versions of this deck before on my channel and tweaked it right after MKM, but never got around to testing it again. Tonight, I'll take it for a spin! It's a pretty fair Boros Midrange deck with a couple of nice synergies. We'll combine soul sisters like Soul Warden and Auriok Champion with token producers like Goblin Rabblemaster to gain us tons of life and beef up our ever expanding mob via +1/+1 counters from our God buddy Heliod Sun Crowned! I'm excited about Auriok Champion as a main board piece because roughly 2/3 off the removal in Modern can't target it and it can stonewall aggro red creatures all day! Adding Warleader's Call into the mix takes the whole synergy over the top! Not only does our whole team grow from the anthem effect, but we get turn after turn of pings as those gobbo tokens enter the battlefield. Combined with a generous portion of Lightning Bolts, Lightning Helixes and Boros Charms (you know I'm bringing the burn!), those pings well rack up lethal damage for us as our ever swelling ranks get in there! We've also still got the Boros Reckoners, as I am a big fan of their ability which can present nightmare conundrums to our foes in combat! We've pared back the Reckoner effects, but we're still running the One Of, Fun Of Blasphemous Act! Powerful Planeswalkers and Serra Paragons to Lurrus back our fallen creatures really tie it all together and keep the threats coming! It's a super fun, interactive, grindy deck, and when it gets it's little motor rolling is pretty impressive! But can I slowish relatively fair deck like this really compete in a hyper powerful and fast Modern 2024 format? Let's find out!
