I first saw Volatile Rig in a booster when I started playing and immediately discarded the card. I thought it was too gimmicky, too random to ever be truly viable and considered a good card.

However the rig always fascinated me. Somehow, a part of me wanted to own faces with this. So I searched for ways to make it viable. Until I found Demyx's deck Get Down, It's Gonna Blow!

His strategy suited my play-style enough that I decided I'd give it a go. However I'm not a big fan of 3 color decks so I tried to adapt it to what I deemed the 2 most important colors for the deck to succeed, white & black, using Altar's Reap, Gift of Immortality, Trading Post and Dying Wish to "rig" the coin flip in my favor.

With Sanguine Bond and Whip of Erebos, anytime a rig explodes I am gaining something.

Here's my take on the Volatile Rig. Suggestions are as always welcome.
