Commander Deck Help forum

I am currently building a land man/animating lands deck with Raggadragga, Goreguts Boss I am having a hard time finding 7 or great instants to put into the deck. What would you add? I want the cards to be impactful card.
Why do you need instants? The buff won’t help much during your opponents turns.

You can use them during combat to suddenly pump a creature, either on attack or defense. And if you are running X cost damage spells, a good instant option is generally preferable to a sorcery speed one when it comes to removal.
At the very least, it doesn't hurt to see what instant speed options are available.

The commander only needs you to spend 7 mana, not necessarily have a mana value 7+. Are there any good kicker/flashback/whatever spells that could work? Urza's Rage, Wild Onslaught, maybe Elephant Ambush?

Looking through the list of possible creatures with MV7 or greater, there are some real haymakers. As that's not what you asked for, just let me drop Nyxbloom Ancient. This should definitely be in here if you can afford it.
Regarding instant and sorceries, scryfall spit out at least some cool ones:
Decree of Savagery is fine, if not turbo broken.
Explosive Welcome is nice because it basically costs 4 instead of 7.
Scour from Existence is a great removal spell for permanents your colours can't handle.
Alpha Brawl punishes one opponent with one big monster and many small creatures. I fear the day someone casts this against my Ygra, Eater of All.
Apex of Power: Now, we're getting splashy. What's better that one Raggadragga trigger? How bout two?
Crush of Wurms: 36 points of stats should be worth 9 mana. It's quite nice here.
Ezuri's Predation: I'm assuming you already had this? Great boardwipe.
Last March of the Ents: What was that about flashy stuff?
Praetor's Counsel: As I just said...
Rise of the Eldrazi: Well...
Tooth and Nail: classic.
To finish, Vivien's Invocation.

Dwarven Catapult, Street Spasm, and things like that would be fun to whittle down a creature’s defense before you give the creature it’s blocking trample.

My Raggadragga deck uses Eldrazi Spawns and Scions and one instant I use is Kozilek's Command.
If you're animating lands, I'm pretty fond of Sylvan Awakening.

You don't really have many good options for 7+ mana instants in Red or Green. Maybe Kindred Summons if you are running a bunch of elves or Desecrate Reality if you are really wanting an instant spell with a high mana value but there wasn't much else showing up that caught my eye. You are probably better off running some instant speed X cost spells like Comet Storm, Electrodominance, or Chord of Calling instead.
If you run Chord of Calling I think that you have to use actual mana to cast it if you want to trigger Raggadragga though. I don't think it will trigger if you choose for X to be 4 or more mana and then make use of convoke to cast the spell.
