An all-in Rakdos Lord of Riots Commander deck that really gets the party started!

The deck relies heavily on the general- more so than other Rakdos builds I've seen- and is designed to drop him on Turn 4, then dump a fist-full of party-starting rioters Turn 5.

There are lots of creatures, as cheap dudes hitting early are the best way to get Rakdos in there, and plenty of card draw to keep the party pumping!!

Should having 20 or 30 power of creatures really early not be enough to totally trash the joint, there is are mini discard and reanimation themes built in. Living Death and Twilight's Call bring the party back to life, and continuous annoying discard can grind away opponents. There are so many little ping and drain effects you can win the long game via the 'Death by a Thousand Stings' method, and Blood Speaker can set up serious card advantage with a mini demon theme. Bringing Hollowborn Barghest and Sire of Insanity together is always fun.

Of course the best way to win is with a giant blow-out like Tar Fiend/Stalking Vengeance, or just a Rakdos's personal party-starting Anthem!!

I have deliberately chosen not to include the giant Eldrazi as that's like bringing a shotgun to knife fight, and opted instead for slightly more fair creatures like Pestilence Demon and Bosh. There's also no Sol Ring because the deck is just so hungry for coloured mana.
