I use to run a land destruction version of Kaalia years ago. Since then she’s move to faster kills by bleeding the opposition. Ravages of War is another mass land d card but will cost you $.

I’m surprised you’re not running Dragon Mage as a wonder wheel draw effect. Keen Duelist helps kill your opponents due to your higher cmc while offering increased draw.

Dragon Tempest is a staple for Kaalia and abused by incorporating Utvara Hellkite and Ancient Gold Dragon, amplified with running Terror of the Peaks. I don’t run a ton of dragons so I chose to keep out Utvara as it’s more situational in my deck.

You might find use in Mudslide and Circle of Flame. I run Mudslide and Moat.

Talismans > Signets, try hitting about 10-11 mana rocks. In Archenemy games where you’re the threat, Kaalia is just the decoy for removal while you more easily hard cast your threats. Quicksilver Amulet and Sneak Attack are good avenues around losing Kaalia as well, but have you considered Sundial of the Infinite which gets rid of sneak attacks drawback and opens combat combos and infinite turns to your arsenal? Maybe too much of you want to keep casual.

The Sanguine Bond and Exquisite Blood aren’t honestly needed in here. Archfiend of Depravity, Wound Reflection, Sower of Discord, Scourge of the Skyclaves, Gisela, Blade of Goldnight,and Heartless Hidetsugu are functionally better choices to utilize and synergize/combo.

If you want to be hated, Torment of Hailfire. As a finished, Insurrection. Endless Whispers is quite funny. So is Cruel Entertainment and Sower of Discord

Ok, ignore my previous comment.

After a two year hiatus I recently started to play Magic more regularly and got more experience with my Rakdos deck.

I replaced Sower of Discord with Pestilence Demon and was quite impressed how good it is against my opponents' creatures in general.

I added Chrome Mox instead of Mox Diamond because I need the land card to come back after a Rakdos attack.

Did you take a look at some of the newer demons:

• Hidetsugu, Devouring Chaos - nice cmc, could help filtering and smoothen our draws.

• Orcus, Prince of Undeath - needs to be cast so reanimating him is not good. We need a lot of mana for his second ability because of the high cmc of the creatures in our deck. But if we have 11+ mana available (maybe from Sacrifice, Burnt Offering or Treasonous Ogre) he becomes a mass reanimation spell. The haste is also nice with our extra combat step effects.

• Balor - some kind of disruption on a demon. I like it but don't know if his effect is strong enough to run him. Great art though!

• Vrock - if it said "for each permanent" it would have nice synergies with a Rakdos swing but as it is it does not do enough.

• Nalfeshnee - normally we don't cast spells from exile.

Demons I might test:

Hidetsugu, Devouring Chaos and Balor are interesting but they don't really add something to our general game plan.

Orcus, Prince of Undeath could be a finisher but with the high mana requirement it is a bit situational.

What do you think about the demon Sower of Discord? He can help us finish the game with Fiery Emancipation/Archfiend of Despair. How has Rakdos, the Showstopper played out for you so far? Is he worth it?

In your deck description you write that Pestilence Demon is for controlling token decks. Has he any other use?

Would Mox Diamond be a good addition to the deck to come back after our lands are gone?

Hi again. Kind of sad of how Wizards have shifted all punishment cards to Red lately sincerely. These past sets not a single great drain for the deck (Innistrad was a total miss). C´mon we want more Court of ambitions and indulging patricians!

As far as recommendations, passive damage ala Indulgent, Ankh of Mishra,card alone can do at least 8-12 damage overall.

My version runs soul sisters, just think they are really worth in this deck. Reason I run New Heliod and keept Archangel of Thune. Running more creatures Sword of Light and Shadow becomes extra good, pumping a dude, a life trigger and recursion.

Lastly, my spiciest tech. Sower of Discord is a personal favorite and super fun in game. Shame it doesn't abuses life-loss, but anyway is strong and basically you are killing 2 players at the same time. There are games when you can choose yourself and the strongest opponent to avoid attacks and finish him off after that. Always Watching is another card I didn't belive would be so useful in the deck, many times I refuse to attack to defend, and this card gives your board vigilance and a little pump which is super nice.
