A Fiery Decent To Madness

Standard Aggro BR (Rakdos) Budget Burn

ctrlALTdel


Sideboard


This deck is a aggressive to semi-aggressive burn, with a majority of the spells being rather discard or madness. This style of deck has always been something I've wanted to build/play for a while in standard, so with the release of Kaladesh I thought it was the right time.

Spells like Collective Defiance, Avacyn's Judgment and Lightning Axe are powerful early game removal spells, with Biting Rain being a good board clear for tokens, with keeping Thermo-Alchemist and Elusive Tormentor   alive.Lightning Axe and Collective Defiance as well as being creature removal, can also be just as effective as a way of getting your madness triggers off a majority of the burn in the deck.

Creature wise, Thermo-Alchemist helps out with burn, and Elusive Tormentor   is helpful with discarding cards, and getting a bit of damage off your opponent.

The rest of the deck is simple, burn and draw. With play testing this version of the deck, an early Alchmeist gets the game going fast, Thermo-Alchemist is an extremely powerful card, and playing it early can lead to an incredible amount of burn.

Prophetic Prism, is a nice little card draw, and provide you with a mana source of any color, which can provide selection of cards for the sideboard.

And as always feel free to ask questions and make comments, they're always helpful with making the deck more competitive and consistent.
