Description

{"ops":[{"insert":"Ultimately my goal making this deck was to try to utilize Rakdos's exile effect with token copies to exile my opponents libraries. There's the generic Dockside/DNA combo which is possibly the \"go to\" win con with tutors if it's even or net positive with a sac outlet which gets the desired exile all opponents libraries then pass the turn, I believe. Beyond that Mikaeus and Murderous Redcap will kill the table with Persist/Undying triggers infinitely recurring it. A lot of the creatures are legendary so it's possible to net damage triggers with Rakdos Joins Up and for the extra damage pings of course there's a Drivnod. Kroxa and Junji for damage and discard hand control. Torment for mana dumps if literally anything else comes online or Black Market is in play. Revel in Riches for a win con off treasures. The high cost cards like Vilis and Razaketh are more targets for Feldon than actual hard casts, plus since his effect sacrifices the token it triggers Rakdos for 8 CMC. Daretti makes an appearance to help return any artifacts that get broken especially since we can sac treasures to return them. Etc.. Etc...\nFor the moment I haven't been able to test much because my play groups are limited so it's all \"in theory\" but the theory is to be annoying and require responses to everything in the deck. Hopefully forcing enough exile effects out and still threatening a combo unless it achieves lethal damage first. It's low on ramp I'm aware, so while there's some value it could be more competitive and obviously needs better mana. Nykthos/Fetches/Shocks are big on my to do list right now. There's draw out the wazoo though and we're utilizing the graveyard so maybe it evens out.\n"}]}
