Favorite creature recursion in Rakdos

Commander Deck Help forum

Posted on May 17, 2023, 8:01 a.m. by NTakamura

I would like to know your favorite spells and permanent that brings creature back from the graveyard to the battlefield in Rakdos. I have an attack heavy sacrifice deck using Garna, Bloodfist of Keld as the commander and I want to tighten up the recursion package. So suggest away your favorites.

Garna, the Bloodflame is kind of obvious ;)

Tortured Existence is insane, as is Phyrexian Reclamation.

To actually reanimate stuff, Doomed Necromancer, Phyrexian Delver and Dread Return are cool.

Chainer, Nightmare Adept is great, and probably really good redundancy for Garna. I'll also second Archpriest of Shadows in a combat focused deck. With haste that can mean two reanimation triggers in one combat.

Garna, Bloodfist of Keld doesn't need the dying creature to be non-token, why not use a bunch of token engines like Goblin Assault, Chancellor of the Forge (a good card to actually use recursion on), Goblin Rabblemaster, Legion Warboss, Krenko, Tin Street Kingpin and Krenko, Mob Boss. Then you can use cards like Pashalik Mons, Weirding Shaman and even potentially Ib Halfheart, Goblin Tactician as sac outlets. You also have access to cards like Squee, Dubious Monarch, Squee, the Immortal and Squee, Goblin Nabob (bascially all the Squee value).

I'm not saying build a goblin deck, but build a goblin deck.
