Here it is, the Standard Rakdos control deck based round a 7 mana enchantment. As powerful as ever-except I am worried about the Doom Foretold stacks deck. It certainly seems at first glance that that archetype just hard-counters us. Perhaps we could do alright after bringing in the Duress es from the sideboard, but I may have to concede the point and switch to Mardu.

Anyway, for any newcomers, a rundown of the synergies, wincons, and ins-and-outs of the deck can be found in the description of the previous build, found here. I will have an updated description covering the new additions shortly.
