Deck discussion for Rakdos BR (help appreciated)

I wouldn't change much here really, seems really well constructed. If anything I would say you don't need 24 land you could go to 23 and add an extra brimstone volley or hellrider (or for giggles Thundermaw)

Sign in blood could be useful if your getting mana swamped or if you get hit by any board wipe but I don't know if that is even a big deal when you have a decent amount of strong finishers.
Other than that I would only say I find it curious you would sideboard dreadbore.

thanks for the help and I might exchange the tragic slips for dread bores and I will go down one mountain for an extra Hellrider.

I would say maybe think about Vexing Devil an Demonic Taskmaster if you are going to use Blood Artist... it makes for a Rakdos Kamikaze deck

Demonic Taskmaster is cool, doesn't fit. Sacrificing every turn is a down fall when your trying to build up, and with hellrider.
Vexing, NEIN!!! Vexing gives up too much power to opponents, you could have better cards to put into play than that.

This is truely solid... ...well put togeather!..

What I'd change is: Play 22 lands total (-1 Mountain) & 1 more Olivia...

Have you notice, that you have 6 Dreadbore in main deck & sideboards total?..

By taking out the 2 Dreadbore, 1 Pillar & 1 Duress, You could put in a 3rd Slaughter Games & 3 Rakdos charm(it's a perfect sideboards card, useful against grave & token decks & could destroy an artifact as well)...

I's play Thundermaw Hellkite instead of Rakdos...


I have 5 decks at top decks right now, if you are interested... ...1 of them is Grixis, wich I think U'd like very much... :)

I also have a deck I'm working on... ...suggestions are wellcome: http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=399469

yes was just updating the deck and looked to see that I didn't replace the dread bore and thank you for the help I'm still not really that magic savy but i like hearing my decks are solid I think i might add the hell kites or just put them in the side board.

thank you again and i will check out your Grixis deck
