Wound Reflection could fit, it also combos with Havoc Festival. Temporal Extortion as life loss or possible take another turn. Rain of Gore to prevent lifegain, maybe Kaervek the Merciless

theFro they're not banned so much as not yet legal
thanks for the insights! i put this together half asleep one night, definitely just a prototype atm
i think i want to, like, get Pitiless Plunderer online, make loads of treasures off of creatures dying so i can kill a bunch off with Kaervek the Merciless or even Massacre Girl, have them come back to hand with Garna, the Bloodflame or play with Gerrard, Weatherlight Hero, repeat and then maybe win off of Syr Konrad, the Grim or such
mostly i feel like sisay decks tend to be "legendary goodstuff" and i wanted to play with the idea of a combo, secret commanders deck - she essentially allows you to partner anyt

I'd recommend Kaervek the Merciless just to squeeze out a bit more damage

I'm a big rakdos fan and kearvek is my favorite rakdos cmdr so far. I'm a timmy type player who likes to have 25 to 30 creatures to a deck. I want to make a deck based around damage not life loss. I also want most of the creatures and enchantments to do passive or direct damage. I dont want a rakdos creature hate group slug Enchantment deck.
Oh yea the commander is Kaervek the Merciless and I'm using a Companion who is Obosh, the Preypiercer so odd spells only.
The deck is built I'm just looking for improvements.
The deck link is here. Kaervek+obosh
I'd prefer the suggestions to be made on the deck page. Thank you all in advance.

Considering has not only a lack of spell-slinger commanders, but Nikya of the Old Ways and Ruric Thar, the Unbowed, which actively counter that strategy, I think it's the least likely to have that idea represented.
Referenced on Gruul Locket:
Gna, Spell Brute
Creature - Ogre Shaman
Whenever a creature you countrol becomes the target of an instant or sorcery, it gets a +1/+1 counter and fights target creature you don't control.
Whenever a creature dies as a result of fighting, target creature gets X +1/+1 counters, where X is the creature's toughness.
2/2
It's kinda a fighting commander more than anything else.
I'd like to see a Hate-based Rakdos commander. Dragonlord Kolaghan, Kaervek the Merciless , and Tsabo Tavoc are probably the closest, but don't really hate on a particular mechanic/strategy/effect, etc.
I think I've been Ninja'd, if so, see above.

Kaervek the Merciless does a better job of killing creatures and he can dome people to the face

The ultimate chad deck and absolute blast to play Kaervek the Merciless. Spam your deck with creature sweepers like Pyroclasm and Anger of the Gods and Damnation to slow down the extremely creature heavy meta and BTFO elf mana. Run a suite of mana rocks and accelerators/rituals to power out your high CMC commander. Run cards that do well in longer games and stalled out boards, like repeated draw effects Phyrexian Arena or creature spam Bitterblossom Goblin Rabblemaster. Also a big fan of cards that punish players, like Curse of Marit Lage or Painful Quandary. Throw in some good creatures (with 4+ toughness so you can spam red board sweeper spells), some reanimator spells, and some card draw, and your combo to win, and you've got a nasty little deck.
