Rules Q&A
Theater of Horrors
Enchantment
At the beginning of your upkeep, exile the top card of your library.
During your turn, if an opponent lost life this turn, you may play cards exiled with this. (This is a linked ability, linked to the ability in the first paragraph on this card. You may only play lands and cast spells that were exiled by this card if they were exiled via the ability in the first paragraph.)
: This deals 1 damage to target opponent or planeswalker.
MalPrac on Exile Focus Commander/Deck?

FormOverFunction, fair point on both comments and yeah i understand not every deck can have the perfect commander for what it does. Not to say i wont include cards like Theater of Horrors but more so those cards are very common so im just trying to find some more unique examples beyond the usual "exile card from library or deck then cast"
Upon looking at some more recent cards / spoilers from Duskmourn seemed to have something to the effect of what im looking for with Winter, Cynical Opportunist. Multicolor and depending on whats exiled he can recast 1 useful thing and maybe another thing like Eternal Scourge or just take Riftsweeper to get something back later.

Also, though it has black, the first card that came to mind when reading your post was Theater of Horrors. Could be fun, if you end up with black in the deck.

I like the deck. I have been wanting to make an Anhelo deck, but I just have so many decks already that I don't know if I'll have room for another. (Not like that's stopped me before though)
You already have Talrand, The Sky Summoner, but more effects like Metallurgic Summonings, Saruman, the White Hand, Chrome Host Seedshark, and Baral and Kari Zev would be handy. I also feel like a couple of magecraft triggers such as Archmage Emeritus, Deekah, Fractal Theorist, or, if you're willing to pay a little more, Storm-Kiln Artist would be good. Role Reversal is nice because it could steal any permanent, not just creatures if you're willing to get rid of some of your stuff. Cryptic Pursuit seems perfect hear since casting instants and sorceries creates a 2/2 for casualty, but also, when you sacrifice it, if it was an instant or sorcery, you get another card! A 3 for 1 seems like a pretty good deal. Also, your mana fixing needs a little work. The signets (Arcane Signet, Rakdos Signet, Dimir Signet, and Izzet Signet) are really cheap, so I would replace those for the 3 mana rocks. Creating colorless mana is pretty detrimental, especially if you're trying to cast spells with multiple mana symbols.
Some stuff I would replace. Blood Tyrant is too bulky since it doesn't benefit from casting/copying spells. Imminent Doom is a little too situational for my liking. There are times when you might not have the right cmc to trigger the doom. Theater of Horrors isn't really that great because it's really mana intensive for the payoff. Prince of Thralls is just too pricey for the curve. Prismari Pledgemage is just a 3/3 for 2, but doesn't do much anything else. Soul Seizer Flip is too clunky, when you could just do Control Magic for 1 less and is an immediate payoff. Firemind's Foresight. I like this card, but it's just a little pricey for my liking. Elder Mastery. Again, a little too pricey for the payoff. Sedris, the Traitor King is really only good in a more creature heavy build with a mill subtheme. Since you only have 15 creatures, it doesn't seem worth it.
These are just a few of my opinions on the deck. Hope any of this helps.

11/23/22 - Madness update
I'm really low on madness cards. Needs to be far higher for an anje deck.
IN
-
Emergence Zone - adds a lot of sorcery speed options into gorger loop
-
Cloudstone Curio - infinite mana combo with Dockside + a creature iff dockside makes enough mana to cast both.
-
Revolutionist - if in gorger loop, can loop instants (and sorceries if anje is there too.)
-
Alms of the Vein - sorcery for above
-
Fiery Temper - instant for above
-
Violent Eruption - instant for above
-
Distemper of the Blood - can also get looped with Revolutionist
-
Hell Mongrel - discard outlet WITH MADNESS
-
Bag of Holding - Shadow of the Grave effect
-
Asylum Visitor - madness
-
Kitchen Imp - madness
-
Bloodhall Priest - madness and etb trigger that kills with gorger
-
Terminal Agony - madness
-
Necrogoyf - madness
-
Malevolent Whispers - madness
OUT
NOTES
Removed most end game threats + interaction that didn't have madness, since madness tech needs to be there in high density and the deck can win through that stuff mainly.

Gidgetimer I did get a new copy of Necropotence. I had sold mine after not having used it in years, but this is the perfect deck for it.
TheOfficialCreator Light Up the Stage and Theater of Horrors work great!
Thank you both for these great suggestions. I also added

TheOfficialCreator Thank you, Light Up the Stage looks great with Spellweaver Helix. I wish Vilis, Broker of Blood was a dragon. MaybeMaskwood Nexus to make him a dragon… Theater of Horrors looks perfect, though!

Cut of the Profits and Vilis, Broker of Blood are also decent choices. Light Up the Stage, Theater of Horrors, and Urabrask, Heretic Praetor as well.
multimedia on Rakdos, Lord of Riots Demon Tribal
2 years ago
Hey, with Rakdos as Commander then consider some effects that make an opponent lose life without attacking? Rakdos can't be cast without first an opponent losing life and effects that cost no additional mana as well as being repeatable are nice since you want to use your mana on your turn to cast Demons or draw. Get repeatable value while also making your opponent or each opponent lose life.
Cryptolith Fragment Flip is ramp and an enabler for Rakdos. Plague Spitter is a hidden gem, repeatable 1 damage to each creature at your upkeep can wreck opponent token strategies especially Spirits who are flying blockers against Demons and opponent's green mana dorks. Lower mana cost options, less than 4 mana, are better since they can potentially be cast before Rakdos.
With Rakdos as Commander and playing Demons you need less ramp because he's a source of ramp for Demons. For this reason I would make draw more important then ramp. Still play some ramp, but more draw lets you draw Demons to cast using Rakdos mana cost reduction.
- Arcane Signet
- Rakdos Signet
- Theater of Horrors
- Florian, Voldaren Scion
- Valakut Exploration
- Mask of Memory
- Faithless Looting
- Light Up the Stage
- Seize the Spoils
- Big Score
- Unexpected Windfall
- Magus of the Wheel
- Read the Bones
For more draw my advice is make cards with repeatable effects a priory for upgrades. Draw spells that are a single effect are fine too, having both is best. Seize the Spoils, Big Score and Unexpected Windfall is loot (draw and discard) and ramp with treasures, that's really helpful for Demons to get three effects with one card.
If you're interested I offer more advice in another comment. Would you like more advice?
