Gambler's Fallacy

{B}{R}

Enchantment

Whenever a player flips a coin, they lose that flip. When you lose a coin flip this way, target player loses 1 life and you lose 1 life. (Each player is a loser for as long as Gambler's Fallacy remains on the battlefield.)

"Come on, I'm due for a win!"

Create a familiar. It can be like the X-scape Familiar cycle (Thornscape Familiar), the Commander Familiar cycle (Esior, Wardwing Familiar), or something else (Jackal Familiar).

This is a really neat gift. Sorry to hear about your brother's pups.

You might like these: Hyena Umbra , Jackal Familiar , Isamaru, Hound of Konda , Pack Mastiff , Rambunctious Mutt , Two-Headed Cerberus .

There's also some interesting synergy among Blood Hound , Lava Hounds , and Jackal Pup . Building around those would probably be a whole different deck though haha.

Cool deck! You might like these:

• Kediss, Emberclaw Familiar (emotional support.. lizard?)
• Contagion (could represent fleas, and has a nice cat in the art)
• Bolt Hound (is a pup and supports your commanders)
• Black Cat
• Jackal Familiar
• Cruel Feeding
• Feed the Swarm
• Eat to Extinction
• Dust Corona (could depict fleas?)
• Furor of the Bitten (bitten by fleas = rage!!)
• Uncontrolled Infestation
• Basilisk Collar
• Sparring Collar

Well, when I think of jackals, on of my favorite creatures that pop up is Earthshaker Khenra. It's a really fun card, immediately coming down and attacking while surprising one of your opponents creatures, Plus, if they manage to take him out you can just bring him back as an Eternal for an encore. Another good jackal is Dread Wanderer, who is also a creature that is really hard to take care of permanently. i'm assuming this is a casual list, so I will also include Jackal Familiar, a 2/2 creature for one red mana. Of course, if you aren't looking for any new additions I'd just suggest cutting it down to 60 cards or so, so that you can reliably get your themed creatures out. A big reason I make a deck like this around some cool tribal idea is to see your creatures come out, as seeing them on the board is a lot funner than seeing them in the hand. and in an 80 card deck you'd like more than 30 lands or so, just to be able to play the game. After the Amonkhet block rotated out (the Egyptian themed set), these cards should be a lot easier to find, with people not using them very often anymore in competitive play.

move Volcanic Fallout's to SB

move 2xSearing Blaze's to MB

+1 Mountain SB

+2-3 gy hate SB

cut Jackal Familiar

i say +1 mountain because if your vs tron for example you are going to want your land destruction on curve and with 16 land for getting atleast 3 land on turn 3 is 44% on the play and 53% on the draw but with +1 it goes up to 50% and 58%. having a flexiable mana base for matchups and on play/not for decks that are trying to scrape past with minimal land is quite important

if you want to borrow any of my stuff that "might" be useful I have 2xCurse of the Pierced Heart 3xYoung Pyromancer 2-3xRatchet Bomb 1xKiln Fiend laying around

Boza i dont think Jackal Familiar is the right card you meant to link. it is nothing like Mogg Maniac

Neotrup, mogg maniac works differently from Jackal Familiar, it can only damage an opponent and never its controller.

The listed subtypes for almost the entire Jackal tribe seems to be incorrect. I tried to fix it but, unless I'm being an idiot and misunderstanding the interface, it isn't possible because the only Jackal related option in the drop-down menu is "Zombie Jackal".

Affected cards:
Battlefield Scavenger, Bitterblade Warrior, Bitterbow Sharpshooters, Champion of Rhonas, Dauthi Jackal, Defiant Khenra, Earthshaker Khenra, Flameblade Adept, Hurr Jackal, Jackal Familiar, Jackal Pup, Khenra Charioteer, Khenra Eternal, Khenra Scrapper, Nimble-Blade Khenra, Resilient Khenra, Trueheart Twins, Wildfire Eternal.
