Streamlined deck meant to stick an evasive enabler, consistently cast Rakdos T4, and start churning out fatties.

This deck is tailored for a pod that does not allow infinite combos and frowns upon fun-ruining strategies like MLD.

Lands: 38 total to improve odds of making land drops through T4 to cast our general. Only 1 land in the list enters tapped (Bojuka Bog). 21 of the lands can produce R or B or fetch whichever color we are lacking. The remaining land count is heavily skewed towards black due to the multiple BB and BBB casting cost cards.

Ramp: The ramp spells are aimed at enabling CMC 8 or less creatures on T5 if the primary plan is disrupted. Thran Dynamo is superior to Gilded Lotus, for example, because the lower CMC of the Dynamo gets it out quicker and we have plenty of colored mana from the lands.

Draw: The draw spells are split between low CMC draws to improve odds of hitting land drops and finding an evasive enabler, and higher CMC permanents to fuel our ramping general and hand dumps.

Enablers: 13 evasive enablers gives a 64% chance of drawing one in our opening hand. If we are willing to mulligan down to 6, our odds improve to 85%. Flying is generally sufficient to guarantee one of our opponents cannot block. The enablers are currently favoring 1 drops, though I may experiment with some CMC 3 stuff to see if the bigger bodies and/or abilities are worth it.
