Kardur walks the Underworld spanking fools. Meant to be casual and obviously the lands are proxies. Side board are some expensive or new subs. Because of the limited ramp in black/red with so many cards with high colored mana costs I am only playing cards with 5 or higher CMC if they win the game or are seriously strong... (or jank list)

Instants or the equivalent: because of the during combat interaction why not make everything during combat? Sac your burnished Hart plumb the forbidden

There are some cards in this deck that need some explanation. Gadrak, the crown-scourge > rage nimbus but if you want treasures run shiny impetus. skin invasion: it can be good for the pesky cards like Animar soul of elements, and it gives you something that can die after it flips. The art is ugly; my apologies. Generally though it isn't as good as bloodthristy blade because it doesn't goad. Voyager staff: personally this seems like the best flicker. it is a one drop and the deck doesn't have a lot of them and can be activated at instant speed for 2 mana.

During combat nonsense: All of the instants in the deck are meant for during combat to ping with Kardur.

I didn't include a lot of flicker effects

Jank list: cards that are only here to have a good time, but ain't winning any games. Usually they make the game more chaotic. akroan horse: costs 4 mana?! tends to die early or prevent damage from nontramplers because of the defender, but its fun. clackbridge troll? tends to over preform? did it graduate the janklist? fumiko the lowblood Endless whispers (if you loose Kardur the rest of the deck is butts. I will sub this card for minion's return because most things will die to kardur's ability or be tapped and it can be used to help get a second hit for kardur). People are usually too salty to give you stuff but its low CMC. genesis chamber...... you literally can't tap it, but its adds to chaos thunderstaff: this deck has a lot of high colored mana costs like massacre worm and Thunderstaff is better than warmonger hellkite Awaken the erstwhile: Too high CMC, but it will draw a counter or really smack a blue player. It isn't as good as captive audience, but if you get it off it is a lot of chaos. Tempt with vengeance: tempting but no one will pay with you if they are salty. It tends to be worse than Tilonalli's summoner.

Discussion Showcase Kardur because the other one looks constipated and I right? Which card is better? Varchild, betrayer of kjeldor or curse of disturbance? Which card is better? Claim the first born or Mascot interception? More monarch? yes you can hold it for a while when you get it, but is it better than just more damage? if you have more flickers I think it would be worth it, but I don't know. What do people think of doom devourer? Because of they high colored costs and no instant speed fortelling I haven't tried it.

11/24/21 SUBS: IN//OUT Slaughter specialist//Kari Zev, Skyship Raider Smoldering marsh//Temple of the false god Gisa, glorious resurrector// Grave betrayal (considered endless whispers) Torbran, Thane of Red Fell//Syr Konrad, the Grim (considered Clackbridge troll) Haunted ridge//kher keep Delina, wild mage//skull collector
