Deck Description

This deck is designed to screw up the game and make it very random of who might win.

How to Play

I would get Possibility storm, Havoc Festival, and Sire of Insanity out. Once this is done, you're discarding your hand and you will be very afraid to cast a card because it won't be the card you are trying to cast but instead a random card that shares same card type.

Obviously, to get Sire of Insanity out faster, I would use Lord of Riot by using a burn spell to hurt the player and get him out and he will attack with haste with Ogre Battledriver then you can cast Sire of Insanity for the cost of two.

While you are getting that set up, you would get young pyromancer out first and cast like crazy to create these weak tokens then when blocking, cast showstopper to destroy their creatures.

With Havoc Festival, you can burn the player to death once he gets low enough on life. He would basically be on a timer before game is up.

It's a unorthodox way of playing mtg. I've always wanted to create a deck that followed the philosophy of Rakdos' guild, which is to have a game and SCREW IT UP. :)

I appreciate any feedback to improve on screwing opponents and my game up.

This is hysterical. I love it.
I'd swap the Pyromancers for Guttersnipe, while the Pyros give you creature presence, the Guttersnipes burn your opponent out faster, allowing your Rakdos combo to play faster, and win games quicker.

Well, I thought about that but the point of these little creatures is to sac them. I don't give a hoot about them because of Showstopper. I want to be able to kill their creatures as mine dies. It's another delaying tactic to buy time to get my game-changers stuff out to make the game MUCH MORE interesting. *evil grin*

Aw, seems like you deleted it? :(

Thanks for the feedback.

I've actually been considering changing it up as I realized that just one of these cards that screws up the game will screw it up completely. I may need to include more creatures and reduce the burn to increase my chance of surviving. :)

Pretty nice deck. I have something similar.

You might want to swap out the Hero's Downfall for Dreadbores.
1 mana cheaper and alot cheaper in terms of money.
