This is a Rakdos Commander Deck. My Commander is Rakdos, Lord of Riots. I have a few major strategies which I have listed below:

Rakdos, Lord of Riots reduces the creature cost by 1 mana for each life lost by an opponent in a turn.These are the cards that will give me opponent damage: Arc Lightning, Flame Jet, Pinnacle of Rage, Rift Bolt, Skull Rend, Soul Burn, & Explosive Impact.

Exava, Rakdos Blood Witch adds haste to all creatures with +1/+1 counters.These are the creatures that can add a +1/+1 counter: Cryptborn Horror, Gore-House Chainwalker, Hellhole Flailer, Rakdos Drake, & Spawn of Rix Maadi.

These creatures already have haste, which will keep my opponent off balance: Carnival Hellsteed, Earthshaker Khenra, Fervent Cathar, Firefiend Elemental, Hellhole Rats, Rakdos Ragemutt, Rakdos Shred-Freak, Thundering Giant, & Viashino Sandscout.

Lovisa Coldeyes will add a +2/+2 & Haste to creatures with Barbarian, Warrior, or Berzerker. These are those creatures: Flamerush Rider, Frenzied Goblin, Battle Brawler, Gore-House Chainwalker, Hellhole Flailer, Earthshaker Khenra, & Rakdos Shred-Freak.

I also have included graveyard return cards, opponent discards, creature destruction/damage, and positive enchantments that I will outline at a later date.

Cards that I am looking at cutting out of the deck are: Twisted Experiment, Deviant Glee, Scare Tactics, Steal Strength, Dragon Fodder, & Read the Bones. Please give suggestions for replacing these cards before any others. Thanks.
