Komainu Battle Armor

Artifact Creature — Equipment Dog

Menace

Equipped creature gets +2/+2 and has menace.

Whenever this or equipped creature deals combat damage to a player, goad each creature that player controls. (Until your next turn, they attack a player other than you if able.)

Reconfigure (: Attach this to target creature you control, or unattach this from a creature. Reconfigure only as a sorcery. While attached, this isn't a creature. This enters the battlefield unattached and stays on the battlefield if the creature this card is attached to leaves the battlefield.)

NV_1980, thank you, I have put Smoke, Uphill Battle, Disrupt Decorum, Icy Manipulator, Hylda's Crown of Winter, & Komainu Battle Armor into my main deck at the time of writing this. I definitely will consider Silent Arbiter, but I don't think I will add Ensnaring Bridge because it doesn't play well with cards like Granite Grip & the other buff cards considering Kratos, God of War third textbox, since I do want to be attacking with & buffing Kratos every chance I get. Defenitely read my third response please for more info.

austintayshus, thank you, I added Blasphemous Act & Cathedral of War, and I will also definitely consider Humble Defector. Definitely read my third response please for more info

DragonMaster420, thank you, first I am wary of adding any creatures because of Kratos, God of War third text box (I would hate to lose a valuable creature ((or valuable creatures)) like Silent Arbiter because they blocked it with a power 5 or 5+ creature.) Second, I thought it would be thematic if Kratos is the only creature in the deck for old GOW reasons, wants revenge on the gods of Olympus and brought Olympus as well as the gods down practically himself, hence him being the only creature. But If I need too I will definitely add those creatures if need be. Also, how would Magus of the Moon & Blood Moon work? I am confused how that would effect/be harmful to, my opponents (if at all, other than their non basic lands are mountains.)

P.S. to NV_1980, austintayshus, & DragonMaster420: First, do you know of any equipment cards that would be at least look-alike accurate to Kratos's weapons/equipment in the first GOW? Second, do any of you know any mono-red counter spell or counter-spell-like cards? I'm remembering at the time of writing this the Eldrazi deck definitely has All is Dust (and that would ruin me lol.)

Hi End_Of_The_Line!

You've given yourself a tough assignment! Combining parameters 1 and 3 especially is going to be hard, as all of the decks you mention will be creature-heavy. If you want to benefit from Kratos' ability, you'll need to focus on stopping opponents' creatures from attacking all-together. This is not easy for mono-red, but there are a few ways one can do it.

Aside from Smoke (which you have not main-boarded yet, please do so!), you can also tap creatures with cards like Hylda's Crown of Winter and Icy Manipulator. Slowing down opposing creatures by having them enter the battlefield tapped will also prevent them from attacking (even when Kratos gives them haste). This is where a card like Uphill Battle could come in handy. Even Silent Arbiter ought to be considered in this regard. Then there are cards that prevent opposing creatures from attacking you specifically, like Ensnaring Bridge. You can also try to goad creatures so that they can't attack you, with cards like Disrupt Decorum, Komainu Battle Armor and Spectacular Showdown. Lastly, it's not the best way to deter opponents from attacking you, but you can also equip Kratos with something that provides deathtouch. Because of his double strike, anything he blocks is killed before it can damage him. Might make opponents with non-disposable creatures think twice before attacking you (so it will probably not stop the Sheoldred deck you've mentioned).
