The owner of this deck hasn't added a sideboard, they probably should...

Submit a list of cards below to bulk import them all into your sideboard. Post one card per line using a format like "4x Birds of Paradise" or "1 Blaze", you can even enter just the card name by itself like "Wrath of God" for single cards.


Deck Description

This deck isn't perfect. However, not bad. The point of this deck is to attack all the time, and eventually overwhelm your opponent with high power creatures that can only be blocked by multiple creatures. Its Rakdos with tiny splash of Gruul. Still toying with it. I made this deck on a realisic budget. Obviously I would like all those guildgates to be shocklands, but thats $$$$$ I don't want to spend at the moment.

Oh, It's called the "Red Army" as it was slightly inspired by the almost suicidial, relentless, wave-like nature of the Red Army of WW2.

How to Play

Bring out creatures as fast as you can.
Enchant them.
Send them head first toward the enemy.
Win?

Deck discussion for The Red Army Would be Proud

this deck is extremely budget obviously so im assuming that's why there are no hellriders, aristocrats or reckoners. (all of which are far better than exava.)

That said, you want 1 drops. 4 rakdos cacklers at least.
grull war chants is meh, take it out.
vamp nighthawk is a slow ANTI agro card, it has no place in an agro deck.
you should also have at least 3 lightning maulers in there.

need some removal. at least 4 searing spears.

25 land is way too much. need 22 at most in here.

Except for burning trees, flailers and cacklers...
Turn 2 burning tree into mauler, swing for 6 with cackler? seems good.

With 4 being the highest cost in the deck, you could easily drop to 20 land and still have no problems casting everything you need. That being said, Exava, as a legendary creature, is not always something you want to be looking at dupes of in your opening hand. So you may want to consider dropping 1-2 land and 1-2 Exava's for something that could be cast off of Burngin-tree Emissary. I would recommend Gore-house Chainwalker.
