Pioneer Red/Black "Multi-Ball," aka Extra Combat Phases
Rakdos {R}{B} Combat Celebrant + Tilonalli's Skinshifter = Three (or More) Combat Phases Per Turn

And remember, always "RAKDOS the F***ing Card!" =P

---

The plan is to get multiple Combat Phases in one turn by swinging out with Combat Celebrant + Tilonalli's Skinshifter. This deck started off mono-red, but I just recently added black. I've also been considering green (instead or in addition), just for ramp. Any suggestions or advice would be awesome.

The Deck:

• First of all, I'm trying out a warriors sub-theme in this deck. Blood-Chin Rager and Labyrinth Raptor make blocking difficult for the opponent, especially over multiple combat phases. Combat Celebrant is also a warrior, which works out nicely to help keep it alive.
• Other warriors include: Bloodlust Inciter to help Expedite other, more important creatures on following turns, and Bloodrage Brawler and Spike Jester (with a little help from Looming Spires), who are here because of their high power.
• Beyond the warrior-granted menace discussed already, this deck also features Renegade Tactics and Barrage of Boulders to prevent specific creatures from being able to block at all... for the rest of the turn... throughout multiple combat phases. Barrage of Boulders needs "Ferocious" in order to be most effect, hence the high power creatures mentioned above.
• Finally, Magmatic Insight is included for more draw.

The Combo:

1. Swing out. Combat Celebrant and Tilonalli's Skinshifter will trigger at the same time.
2. Exert Combat Celebrant as it attacks. This untaps all your other creatures and creates an additional combat phase.
3. Tilonalli's Skinshifter's ability turns it into a copy of Combat Celebrant.
4. During Combat Phase #2, the Skinshifter is now a Celebrant, with the Celebrant's ability, so swing out again. Activate the copy-Celebrant's ability, and get _another_ additional Combat Phase. This will untap the original Celebrant, who cannot be Exerted any more, but can still attack as a menacing, sac-if-you-block-it, high-powered warrior.
5. Have fun attacking for the third time in one turn.

If you want to suggest something off-color, feel free. This deck is some just-for-fun janky bullshit, and it doesn't need to be Mono-{R} or {BR} or anything. Go crazy and be creative if you want. Thanks for looking!
