Do you like crushing people's spirits and want them to be pissed at you the second you put your commander on the table? WELCOME!

This is by far the most stomping-est deck I have. It goes off about 4 out of 5 times. The strategy is simple, ping an opponent on turn 4 and drop Rakdos. Then on turn 5 you can fill the field with fatties. Turn 5 Kozelik, Butcher of Truth or Ulamog, the Ceaseless Hunger? Yup.

Sometimes I play games where I only have 4 lands on the battlefield with ten or so decimating fatties out around turn 6.

A couple times I have got to play Heartless Hidetsugu with Wound Reflection that results in a win at the tap of a card (assuming opponent's life totals are even).

I have included some draw Disciple of Bolas Bloodgift Demon Kozilek, Butcher of Truth Promise of Power Harvester of Souls Read the Bones and spot removal as well as protection for Rakdos Dark Privilege Goblin Chirurgeon Swiftfoot Boots Whispersilk Cloak Undying Evil. Giving this deck some versatility as to what kind of deck you are playing against.

I am looking for any advice on revisement, but am overall VERY happy with how it plays. It is a little susceptible to board wipes and if you can't deal damage to get out Rakdos it does stagger. Thanks for looking! Please feel free to comment or +1!

I would like to thank Budget MTG Decks for a starting point for this deck. Their deck is here and crushes as well! http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/budget-rakdos-lord-of-riots-edh-commander/
