Deck Description

This is a reasonable budget deck base on http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=411511
I use to have a green dominant RG aggro before i see the above deck. then i realize red dominant aggro is way more aggressive.
currently on play testing on mtgo
i find it satisfyingly fast

It has that ball lightning feel

i mainboarded ranger's guile i find it really useful utility card the hexproof is very useful against tempo disruptors.

still working on sideboard against tier 1 decks

Deck discussion for Rakdos Rush Green [Standard]

I like speedy decks (I play Rakdos my self atm). But when you go for speed, cards like Devils play and Mizzium Mortars feels very out of context, even Wild hunger.

For direct spells I'd go for this:
4 Titanic Growth
4 Pillar of Flame
4 Searing Spear
4 Rangers Guile
1 Revenge of the hunted

For creatures I'd switch Cacklers for Nobles.

I was Theorycrafting a R/G a while back ago but never got around to build (went rakdos instead).
But I was thinking something like this:

Just desagree on titanic growth, I prefer Giant growth and nobles are for SB "only", so keep the cacklers.
Another good card to consider is Rakdos Shred-Freak..
Think about it

Thanks for the suggestion
I get some of your point
for now i will stick with the cacklers would get a noble for play testing soon
i agree during play testing the mortars becomes a liability
