Rakdos Aggro Goodstuff

CREATURES: Aggro, all multicolored so Jund Hackblade and Grixis Grimblade are guaranteed to activate, plus Fists of the Demigod fully upgrades each creature. We'll list all the creatures below.

• Manaforge Cinder : lets us filter lands, so even if we start with a shit all swamp hand we can still work without using a mulligan. Be careful game two however, if the opponent recognizes that you're using this creature to keep bad opening hands they might choose to kill it asap, leaving you mana-screwed unless you draw into another land you need.

• Spike Jester : Just a basic haste beater

• Goblin Deathraiders : Just a basic trample, but works really well with Madcap Skills and Fists of the Demigod

• Jund Hackblade : As long as you have one other creature on the field you get a 3/2 haste for 2 mana, sounds good

• Grixis Grimblade : As long as you have one other creature on the field you get a 3/2 deathtouch for 2 mana, sounds good

INSTANTS/SORCERYS/ENCHANTMENTS: Damage/Hand Hate/Buff Creatures, list below

• Lightning Bolt : If you're running red and you don't have this, you're not running red. Lets us hit their face or kill a 3 toughness creature cheaply

• Terminate : Kill things, added benefit of cancelling regeneration

• Blightning : good damage and hand disruption for a relatively low cost, helps slow down decks like delver and affinity

• Duress : helps slow down instant and sorcery heavy decks

• Demonic Dread : synergizes well with Madcap Skills and gives us a free thing

• Madcap Skills : Huge power spike turn two, makes our creatures evasive while enabling them to do a lot of damage over time if not dealt with

• Fists of the Demigod : gives all our creatures +2/+2, wither, and first strike. The first strike is more important than the wither obviously, but the wither isn't bad since we'll be constantly swinging with our creatures and if a creature enchanted with this is blocked without killing the defender, at least that defender will be a lot smaller and less of a threat in subsequent turns

LANDS: Looming Spires gives a boost to one of our creatures for a turn, even better if that creature is already enchanted with Madcap Skills . What's more is that we can bounce Looming Spires back to our hand with Rakdos Carnarium so we can use it again on another turn. We're only running 4 slow lands because this is an aggro deck, and Manaforge Cinder will make the negative effects of Looming Spires and Rakdos Carnarium less damaging in the early game.

SIDE BOARD:

• Red Elemental Blast : Pauper has a lot of popular blue decks, so this is a must to protect our creatures, as well as slowing down our enemies

• Smash to Smithereens : Affinity is also popular is pauper, so this lets us control their board a little while also doing damage to fit our aggro theme

• Echoing Decay : Many pauper decks run multiples of the same staple creatures, so this helps to clear their board. Hits Delver of Secrets  , Kiln Fiend , Frogmite , your various elves, etc.

• Flaring Pain : This stops decks from preventing our damage, and we get two uses out of it because it has flashback. This is mostly in here because my friend plays a blue/green Fog deck, but it also stops people from using Circle of Protection: Red or Circle of Protection: Black on us

• Hymn to Tourach : A powerful hand hate card, discarding 2 RANDOM cards for 2 mana is very disruptive. The only downside is that it's 2 black, but again, this shouldn't be a problem due to Manaforge Cinder (I'm aware that this may not be legal in paper but i haven't bothered to change it yet, any suggestions for alternatives are appreciated)

And that's the deck currently. Any suggestions/comments/concerns are appreciated. Thanks for taking the time to read this!
