Modern deck inspired by the great EDH idea by goombalive, Rakdos lord of Eldrazi. The goal is simple: get to cast your eldrazi monstrosities with the help of Rakdos, Lord of Riots's excellent ability. To get there succesfully, you'll need a couple of things:

• Ways to get Rakdos in case it isn't in your initial hand. Diabolic Tutor is the best option if you've reached turn 4 and it doesn't show up, but Cathartic Reunion, Temple of Malice and Harsh Scrutiny will upper your chances of having access to one as soon as possible.

• Ways to deal damage in order to get Rakdos to the battlefield. Lightning Bolt and Shock were obvious choices (plus you can use them as removal or extra damage in case you could spare some), but Thermo-Alchemist works too, and gives you creature defense.

• Ways to ensure your survival in the first turns. Still have a lot of work to do in this area, but Akoum Refuge can help you win some lives as it doesn't matter it entering the battlefield tapped that early, and Dreadbore can neutralize dangerous threats.

Would appreciate some help and recommendations for both the main and sideboard!
