Description

Introduction

This is a Rakdos deck for the Standard format that uses the best cards from black and splashes red for the Chandra, Hope's Beaconimage and Light Up the Nightimage combo. Rakdos also allows one to play Bloodtithe Harvesterimage in the 2-mana card slot.

The deck is a work in progress.

Main Deck

1 Mana Spells

7 Cards

image image image

  • 2 Cut Downimage — The best 1 mana black removal spell.
  • 2 Duressimage — A great card discard spell. It's very important to have some card discard in the deck, when many opponents play with sweepers like Sunfallimage or Farewellimage.
  • 3 Evolved Sleeperimage — Probably the best 1 mana creature in black.

2 Mana Spells

10 Cards

3 Mana Spells

6 Cards + 2 Cards with 3 Mana Prototype Ability = 8 Cards

image image image image

  • 2 Graveyard Trespasser // Graveyard Gluttonimage — Perhaps the best 3 mana drop for black. It has a great ward ability, can become 4/4 during night, can cause direct damage, can gain life, and can remove key cards from graveyards.
  • 2 Liliana of the Veilimage — Liliana is very dangerous, when the opponent is playing with only a few big creatures. However, if the opponent has something like Skrelv's Hiveimage, Wedding Announcement // Wedding Festivityimage, or Mirreximage, Lily is not that great.
  • 2 Phyrexian Arenaimage — Good card draw against control decks.
  • 2 Phyrexian Fleshgorgerimage (Prototype) — A great artifact creature that has a 3 mana prototype ability. It goes around Cut Downimage and Go for the Throatimage and its direct removal costs life. It's great also for having lifelink and menace, which are useful both for attacking and for defense. You can also play it as 7/5 in the late game, when its direct removal costs 7 life.

4 Mana Spells

2 Cards

  • 2 Gix's Commandimage — An excellent utility card. It can be easily a one-sided boardswipe.

6 Mana Spells

2 Cards

  • 2 Chandra, Hope's Beaconimage — An extremely dangerous planeswalker that can copy all your instant and sorcery spells.
