I wanted to try and bring Rakdos Contract to Modern with this decklist. I'm not a professional player, neither a really good one so what I'm looking for here is some advices.

The decklist may be a complete mess so feel free to comment with your thoughts and what you think should be added/replaced/removed.

Like the standard version of the deck, the main win condition here is having the four different demons (Rakdos, the Showstopper + Doom Whisperer + Spawn of Mayhem + Archfiend of Depravity) in play with Liliana's Contract . A bunch of removals will help to stay alive until you will manage to play the last demon, and Theater of Horrors will help you to speed up this process by playing some lands. The Doomwhisperer + The Eldest Reborn will also give you good chances of having your wincon in play as soon as possible, with The Eldest Reborn being also a good removal enchantment.

You can find the main source of this deck at this link: https://www.mtggoldfish.com/deck/1615686#paper.

Since the only white card in this decklist is Path to Exile I decided to keep "Rakdos" in the name instead of "Mardu". EDIT: no more white cards in the decklist. Still considering white as a splash tho.

(I wanted to say that I'm not a native english speaker, so I may have made some mistakes while writing).

Remember that this is a deck crafted on a low/medium budget (Cardmarket ~€170 without shipping cost, in dollar ~$190) and is mostly for fun, if you can see any good chances of it being competitive feel free to make your own modified decklist.

-2 Arid Mesa -1 Mountain -2 Sacred Foundry -3 Path to Exile -2 Cry of the Carnarium +2 Bloodstained Mire +3 Swamp +1 Slaughter Games +3 Tragic Slip +1 Black Sun's Zenith

To better deal with indestructible creaures I added Tragic Slip and Black Sun's Zenith (also a good boardwipe) since Path to Exile has been removed.

Now the decklist is also less expensive, even if I'm still considering Surgical Extraction instead of Slaughter Games. It is surely faster but more situational as it works only if the targeted card is in a graveyard.
