I've been looking for a decent Rakdos commander ever since I won my Badlands in a dice game at a local FNM. Tried out a bunch of dudes, but didn't really have that much fun. Until now! Grenzo just seems like a high class individual. Whoever said stacking your deck is illegal never met the Grandpappy of the goblin world. This deck focuses on taking advantage of Grenzo's activated ability without investing too much mana into his X cost. A bunch of ETB effects with some cellar shenanigans mixed with a tiny bit of goblin tribal action. Activating Grenzo on my opponents turn is always a fun thing to do. :D

Since this is more of a combo/weenie deck vs creature rush, I didn't put many "bombs" in. I wanted to mainly center the deck around activating Grenzo early. The goblin lords help increase Grenzo's power to make his ability trigger more often, alongside the equipment help. Since EDH has a lot of artifact hate, and this deck runs a 23 of em, Myr Retriever, Trading Post and Arcbound Reclaimer are here to help as much as they can. Viscera Seer helps stack the cellar, alongside a slew of artifacts and lands, as well as acting as a sac engine for some fun combos.

This deck pretty much only runs permanents (1 sorcery) so no tutors and few forms of removal. (Duplicant exiles creatures, Shriekmaw destroys non black non artifacts, Fleshbag Marauder does his thang and I have two forms of artifact removal in Ingot Chewer and Tuktuk Scrapper). This might be a bad thing, but more playing will sort that out.

Any and all help or advice is much appreciated!
