Deck Description

This deck was made to fit the theme of the Guild Rakdos, and a large majority of the cards have the Rakdos mark on them.
One of the main goals is to discard opponent's cards and kill off decent amounts of creatures (and control the pace of the game that way) while also having creatures that you don't mind dying but can still chip away and do small amounts of damage. That gives some flexibility with Crypt Incursion as you can target yourself if your opponent is killing off your creatures with removal spells, gaining you enough life to hang in there and get out one of the big boys/use instant damage spells.

How to Play

Be sure to get out Blightning and Rakdos Return as soon as you can, since it gives you the control and the upper hand over your opponent, while also setting you up for a Crypt Incursion later in time if you draw it. Same goes for things like Dreadbore. It's best to Unleash Rakdos Cackler and just swing for 2 every turn when you get him out, while also keeping your opponent's creatures not only off the field, but out of their hand. It's also a good idea to not unleash Exava, since blocking with First Strike will prove very useful and is an ability you won't want to give up.

Try experimenting with Pain Magnification, I think you would enjoy what you discover. Check my Highway to Hell deck if you don't see the combo
