Deck Description

Any comments and suggestions are welcome and encouraged!

Basically Jund aggro with Falkenrath Aristocrat, Master of Cruelties, and Rakdos, Lord of Riots as finishers.

Sideboard: Gruul War Chant is for control decks that want to flash in Resto or Snapcaster to block and decks that have fewer creatures. Falkenraths are to bring in for more staying power if they're running killspells left and right. Sire of Insanity is to level the playing field against heavy-draw control decks. Golgari Charm for regenerating and the occasional enchantment destruction. Slaughter Games for anything I didn't plan on or that becomes super annoying (e.g. Thragtusk). And finally, my favorite reaminator-hoser: Crypt Incursion, it might be for 3 mana but it's instant speed so they won't see it coming game 2 and I'll gain 9+ life without any trouble.

Note: I'm considering adding a land or two to the maindeck to support higher CMC spells in the sideboard. Thoughts?

How to Play

Play creatures, turn them sideways. Play kill spells, kill blockers. Play other spells, cause lifeloss. Pretty straight forward.

Deck discussion for Jund, Cult of Rakdos

Lookin good. I have a Jund aggro too utilizing vexing devil, Lotleth troll and Varolz for early game silliness. If I were to make any suggestions, I'd probably switch out bump in the night and add more putrefy or searing spear as they can add for more spot removal. Otherwise looks great, wish I could play against it!

Yeah this is still very much a work in progress. I might switch them for Pillar of Flames. The idea was to be able to deal damage with one mana in case I needed a way to get Rakdos out with creatures on the board to attack.
Thanks for the comment!

Yea, I saw that curse card you put in. Never thought about using that with rakdos! Good job!

Thanks! My main complaint right now is that I want more green spells to take advantage of the ZurTaa Druid, right now he's really just there to deal 1 damage to get Rakdos out. And once he is out, in theory, I don't have to pay colorless mana to cast creature spells so the green just ends up emptying from my mana pool. Maybe Acidic Slime, Ruric Thar or Gruul mythic with Doublestrike?

Lol I had the same idea with Savageborn hydra and Rakdos. Swing in 6 and get a 6/6 double strike for 2 mana? Yes please.
