A variant on Aristocrats that lends itself to a more "red-zone first, math is for blockers" mentality. Aristocrats is traditionally a creature base Synergy deck focused on grinding the game out, that can be played in a variety of colors usually always black based plus x. The Variant I have today is what Id say a more aggro variant by adding red you end up gaing alot of aggressive threats that can close out a game quick and burn which can hasten your opponents clock lending to a faster playstyle. One of the many neat things about the deck is due to its more aggressive nature it can take advantage of blacks 1-mana reanimate style of effects and reds burn which requires a creature at an additional cost which proves useful when trying to get in the red-zone against blockers more so than usual. The big catch to the deck however is unlike traditional aristocrats where you can grind out to the late game, this variant doesn't have the same reach and resources like its sister variants.

Points Mox Ruby-3, Mox Jet-3 and Demonic Tutor-4.
