[@jordanpearson6446]

Turn 1 isn't just possible, but with the right budget/collection it starts to get pretty probable with about 11 different variations of fast mana the enable a turn 1 combo. Turn 1: (Ancient Tomb + Sol Ring/Mana Crypt/Mana Vault/Mox Amber + Jeweled Lotus) or (Land + Mana Vault/Mana Crypt + Jeweled Lotus) or (Mana Crypt + Mana Vault/Sol Ring/Mox Amber + Jeweled Lotus) or (Land + Mox Amber + Mana Crypt) + Shuko/Shai of the Shinobi/Stormrider Rig/Lightning Greaves + (CMC 1-2 win con) + Koll + CMC 0 creature or Skirk Prospector. Turn 1 win. Heroes Blade will also work for turn one with Rograkh. Ashnod's Alter and Phyrexian Alter could replace the win con slot to produce infinite mana to cast another win con of greater CMC. Aetherflux Reservoir and Grape shop are perfect storm finishers for a deck like this. Fast Mana Cards: - Ancient Tomb - Sol Ring - Mox Amber - Jeweled Lotus - Mana Crypt - Mana Vault - Lotus Petal Mana Engine Cards: - Phyrexian Alter - Ashnod's Alter Win Con. Cards: - Goblin Bombardment - Impact Tremors - Alter of the Brood - Blasting Station - Alter of Dementia - Aetherflux Reservoir - Grape Shot - Fireball - Comet Storm Well of Lost Dreams/Dawn of Hope + Soul's Attendant/Soul Warden/Ajani's Welcome/Suture Priest/Diamond Mare + Phyrexian Alter/Ashnod's Alter is an infinite draw engine to insure you combo faster. Not to mention the infinite life gain gives you a ton of resilience for when you inevitable become archenemy, so it's not bad my itself. Alter of Carnage + Phyrexian Alter/Ashnod's Alter is another potential infinite card draw engine, but without the life gain requirement. Card Draw Engine Cards: - Well of Lost Dreams - Dawn of Hope - Alter of Carnage - Skullclamp - Staff of Domination Life Gain Cards - Soul's Attendant - Soul Warden - Ajani's Welcome - Suture Priest - Diamond Mare - Aetherflux Reservoir Fireball and Comet Storm are decent inclusions for if you get an infinite mana engine going as they'll just win you the game if they aren't countered or redirected. Tiana, Ships Caretaker is a strong inclusion for the mid to late gate as when paired with Koll you equipment and creatures will go back to your hand. I'd run Wrath effects for my casual play as to sweep away your opponents progress make further card advantage. So far Boros Eqipment Cheerios Aristocrats Combos is looking pretty gross. GG Wizards.

[@jordanpearson6446]

I was wrong. There's more mana fixing the can be done by casting Ashnod's Alter then sacrificing extra CMC 0 creatures to cast Koll then start the combo. Either (4 mana + Ashnod's Alter + 3 CMC neutral creatures + CMC 1 equipment with equip 0) or (3 mana + Ashnod's Alter + 4 CMC neutral creatures + CMC 1 equipment with equip 0). Koll and Feather making Boros great again.

[@jordanpearson6446]

I'm also wrong about casting turn one with Jeweled Lotus in most cases as I forgot that it only produces one color. I'm just too lazy to edit the mistake.

[@jordanpearson6446]

I had the realization while replying to another comment; that this is basically my Teysa, Orzhov Scion deck with red instead of black. So now I know that Karmic Guide + Reveillark or Nim Deathmantle are your extra recursion pieces. Cathodian and Myr Moonvessel are more mana neutral creatures, and Krark Clan Iron Works is basically another Ashnod's Alter. It just keeps getting grosser and more consistent the more I think about it.

My friend was telling me about this video a couple days ago, and it really opened my eyes to how good this card actually is. Also T1 win is absolutely possible with Mana Crypt & Mana Vault, but I'm not sure if the deck can win T1 with more budget friendly options. Still a very cool card, and I'm looking forward to running him as part of the 99 as a win con in some of my equipment themed decks. I might actually be the only person who enjoys WotC doubling down on equipment with Boros, and this guy is easily going alongside Feather as one of the best Boros commanders for sure. Kind of reminds me of your Gerrard video awhile back!

[@pennybuttercup902]

Deathrender allows Koll to combo with any nontoken creature if you stack the trigger to put it in your hand before Deathrender puts a creature from your hand into play and attaches to it. Also, there are cards like Sun Titan that can bring back an aura to attach to itself for the loop. You can also include Bludgeon Brawl to turn fast mana like Mox Opal or Mana Crypt into 0 equip cost equipment, for the consistency.

[@ranchangu]

I'd hesitate to call the card a busted commander. You have to run a multitude of awful or otherwise useless cards to make the combo consistent early on, and the combo is all it really has going for it. It lacks any real card advantage and being a Boros commander, it comes with all the flaws that Boros commanders have. If you cannot quickly get the combo, you will be doing nothing all game. Don't tunnelvision into the fact that he can combo off early, build deep into it, and call it a day. I doubt it will work out as well as one would like I think a much more solid home for the card is in the 98 of Rograkh partner decks that have White. You get to save deckspace by having your 0-Cost creature in your command zone, have a second commander that gives you value, artifact synergy, or anything else you'd like to build into (Tymna, Arden, and Keleth are all things I'd look at personally), and in the case of Tymna/Ishai/Sidar/etc you get to include a third color to patch up Boros's weaknesses. More colors also means more tutors and flexibility, so that you can slim down your combo package and play a much more interactive and versatile game, which is both more fun for all players and much stronger across more games A commander being potentially fast isn't the only thing you should look at. You need to look at card advantage, consistency, interaction, flexibility, etc. Koll lacks almost each of these, and even in the speed department he is beaten out by stuff like Anje, Godo, Rograkh/Silas, Goblin Combo, etc I do appreciate this gives some attention to Boros and Mardu, though. Both were really lacking a solid combo option to call their own

[@fidly4]

I think the main thing was to benefit going wide with equipment/auras, and the best payoff for that was to protect your creatures from dying. But, in a go wide deck they didn't want to discourage you from playing tokens, so they went ahead and a gave them a stat boost.

[@Flutterstorm]

I have a question: if you are using an equipment with equip-sacrifice a creature, shouldn't the combo be unable to work since you pay the equip cost in the layer before the equipment is attached to the net0 creature, which will result in the commander not triggering?

Who doesn't love a good combo

[@Jonathan_Burton]

Turn 1 Win, easy. Jeweled Lotus, a plains and mana crypt as well as a one or two costed equipment that equips for 0 and 0 cost creature. Play Jeweled Lotus, Mana Crypt and the Basic and tap all 3 for 6 mana making sure that jeweled lotus is for red. Use one red and one white for commander, use nothing for the creature, use one and a red for goblin bombardment (you can use colourless if you get altar of dementia meaning you can also get a mountain), and use the remaining mana for your equipment. And then do the combo. Thus a turn 1 win

[@fidly4]

The mana from jeweled lotus can only be spent on your commander, so you won't be able to cast goblin bombardment.

[@tyroflame2764]

Turn one Combo, do the same using Manacrypt and a lotus petal and simian spirit guide or mox diamond or chrome mox or jeweled lotus or LED. There is an second route as land u can use ancient tomb or city of traitors and then you need up to three of the colored fast mana. It also works with sol Ring and goblin Bombardment but then you probably need an Rite of Flame too.

Can you please make a Deck Tech for this commander! I’ve never played a Boros deck and this seems like an awesome first commander to try out

[@MageSkeleton]

I much prefer Teshar. He may restrict your ability of colors to just White, but it also means you don't have any other colors to worry about. Furthermore, the objective is to get one of the many permanents you can have access to including Silence and it's counterpart where your literally stopping your opponents from stopping you from winning. Best case is if you have Grand Ablisher available to you. Ever since "masterminding" a turn 1 Gitrogg deck, i've realized that while you can get yourself into that position you end up having problems in the form of "the fun police" Force of Negation, Force of Will, Pact of Negation, and even a few other low cost counterspells that can fully disrupt your ability to win on that first or second turn. Especially Mental Mistep. Dealing with such counterspell action is resource taxing, more so than something that would get rid of one of your creatures. I've been able to win from going to upkeep, opponent doing Path to Exile on Teshar, and being able to pull of a win condition. But i also understand how unlikely this type of win can be. I would LOVE to have a boros commander with a plan, unfortunately that commander is going to be Sunforger Zirda. I've discovered that unless your playing Blue, you shouldn't put too much reliance on the graveyard. That's why Selvala Heart of the wild and Korvold are so good at what they do, Korvold does have some use of his graveyard, but Selvala doesn't need the graveyard. You also have to remember that the graveyard was intended to be a place for cards to no longer be available, why some people run methods to exile graveyards. Thank you for reading this "wall of text" comment. I wish there were more cards like "Deflecting swat" in red.
