Demigod of Revenge Combo Deck

Legacy BR (Rakdos) Combo Competitive Demons

mmdw34


Demigod of Revenge is such a cool card with a cool ability so why not use it? I have played this for fun and it has worked a couple times but it is not consistent. But let me tell you when you pull this off it's really a great feeling!

This looks like a really good shell for a deck. The best reanimate targets that I know of are Iona, Shield of Emeria and Griselbrand .

Im not trying to reanimate anything. The point of the deck it to bury demigods, play or reanimate one and swing in for 20 in one turn.

I agree that a few more targets would solidify a win condition. Many Dredge cards like Golgari Thug , Ichorid , Life from the Loam , etc. would help get cards in the grave and improve your deck.

I think having a couple of good reanimator targets is good for is if someone stuffs your demigod play. Meddling Mage is a thing, sadly. Also, something like Extirpate or Surgical Extraction just wins the game straight up. Having a Griselbrand or Iona gives you another way to win the game once that fails

:-D Your graveyard becomes your Library! It usually runs five colors, using lands like Ancient Tomb , Gemstone Mine , and City of Brass . It then gets the Dredge engine started by discard outlets like Breakthrough , Careful Study , Faithless Looting , and Lion's Eye Diamond (budget lists can run w/o LED). Then by drawing cards you choose a Dredge card like Golgari Thug , Stinkweed Imp , Golgari Grave-Troll , etc to further dump cards in the yard, also getting Narcomoeba on the battlefield. Hopefully Dread Return and Bridge from Below are in the yard, then a usual target is Flame-Kin Zealot to recur. Bridge pumps out Zombies by saccing creatures to Dread Return , Cabal Therapy , and Ichorid . Zealot pumps Zombies and swing for the win. Other recur options are Griselbrand , Jin-Gitaxias, Core Augur , Iona, Shield of Emeria , and more.

Here's a primer for more info:

Essentially, dredge is what Aeon said and the primer. After the first turn, you'd rather not draw any cards.

maybe try more removal and maybe try putting in a few more creatures Vampire Nighthawk i think would work nice

Life from the loam would be good if you had green but dakmor Salvage would work fine in the deck as it is. My dredge deck is green, black, white (splashed white just for hunting grounds) and is more of a graveyard deck with cards that get bonuses from graveyards. A few of those would work in this deck too like sewer nemesis (target yourself), nighthowler, mortivore, whip of erebos might be useful, avatar of woe (usually a 2 cost and is really powerful), perhaps disciple of bolas for draw power, etc.
