"I don't mind dying if you die faster", pretty much sums up this deck. The modus operandi is to deal a little bit of damage to an opponent so the I can cast Rakdos, Lord of Riots . From there I play the game primarily in the second main phase, with Rakdos dealing damage and making my other creatures cheaper to cast. And every once in a while we'll just all lose life together, because...why not? It's Rakdos.
