It Never Lasts For Long

Burn to Shine vs Darkest Hour deck
The card draw didn't quite do what I was hoping. Perhaps if Thrilling Discovery was an instant, I'd find it more usable? Rebecca's comment was, "I just don't feel like I'm doing something powerful, I feel like I'm discarding powerful things to get more cards."

So this is what I settled on.

4 Balefire Liege
2 Hearthfire Hobgoblin
3 Skyknight Legionnaire
3 Aurelia, Exemplar of Justice
4 Swiftblade Vindicator
3 General Ferrous Rokiric
4 Figure of Destiny
2 Boros Recruit

3 Legion's Initiative

4 Lightning Helix
2 Lightning Bolt
1 Legion Leadership
3 Path to Exile

7 Plains
7 Mountain
4 Sunbillow Verge
2 Eiganjo, Seat of the Empire
1 Castle Embereth
1 Needle Spires

// 4 Sideboard

SB: 4 Cursed Totem

The Sideboard is incomplete: Rest In Peace seems like a gimmie, Wear/Tear and Red Elemental Blast likely too.

I ended up cutting the Boros Swiftblades, because I wanted to keep the deck as low to the ground as possible and make room for more Legion's Initiative. The boost in Swiftblade's toughness wasn't the answer I was looking for.

Anyway, I like where this deck has ended up and we're on to the next one!
