Kitchen Imp

Creature — Imp

Flying, haste

Madness (When you discard this card, you may cast it for its madness cost instead of putting it into your graveyard.)

Austin_Smith_of_Cards on Graveyard Maverick - My Tortex Brew

Made some adjustments to the deck to modernize a little; classic toolbox Golgari-style Tortex seems to have fallen slightly out of favor for Abzan aggro, but we don’t need no white mana!

+2 Eccentric Farmer, +2 Kitchen Imp, +1 Writhing Necromass

-1 Stinkweed Imp, -1 Perilous Myr, -1 Thoughtpicker Witch, -1 Barren Moor, -1 Tranquil Thicket

Eccentric Farmer does double duty filling our graveyard and recurring lands to meet our drops, so traded out one Stinkweed Imp and a Thoughtpicker Witch (who I’ve almost never needed to use in playing this list). With Farmer helping us meet our land drops better, dropped the two cycling lands to make room for a pair of Kitchen Imps to push early game aggro. Lastly, ditched the Perilous Myr for a big beatstick in Writhing Necromass to contend against the likes of Gurmag Angler or potentially even bigger creatures.

I'm really low on madness cards. Needs to be far higher for an anje deck.

OUT

NOTES

Removed most end game threats + interaction that didn't have madness, since madness tech needs to be there in high density and the deck can win through that stuff mainly.

how about some madness cards for that armix trigger? Maybe Terminal Agony, Fiery Temper, Kitchen Imp

I'm also trying to make a deck of that kind, and I have some ideas for the sideboard :

I don't see many cards that you would absolutely want to side out, except your 10 instants against bogles, so your sideboard should have creature destructions that handle hexproof : lightning bolt and dark withering can be swapped for more diabolic edicts/chainer's edicts, Fleshbag Marauder can integrate your toolbox and Crypt rats too. I prefer Electrickery to Nausea as it can be played at instant speed.

Tortured Existence lets you play some maindeck toolbox too and have one of some cards that can be maindecked in madness too : 1 Gurmag Angler for instance, 1 Insolent Neonate is not a toolbox card, but can still be maindecked and give more options

2021 saw MH2 give 5 new madness cards, namely Kitchen Imp and VOW introduced blood tokens as a new way to discard, 14 card in the right colors, but only Voldaren Epicure caught my attention, Blood Fountain has its uses but is too slow here.

Blazing Rootwalla: Red version of the classic madness creature Basking Rootwalla, allows for better early board presence.

Kitchen Imp: Another cheap madness creature for aggro starts.

Bone Shards: Solid removal spell that enables madness, can also sack a rootwalla to it if your hand is empty. Takes care of everything Fiery Temper can't kill.

Thoughtseize: More t1 plays, disruption that can also be used on yourself in a pinch to discard something.

Necrogoyf: Both a threat, an enabler, and disruption for the opponent all in one. This was the main reason I started looking more at potential madness decks in modern.
