Rakdos, Lord of Riots is very much an underrated LC to be used in Commander mode. Specifically a multiplayer Commander match.

The theme here was not to run pure artifact creatures (albeit I have enough Eldrazi to make Rakdos worth it), the main focus is instant damage. If i can produce 1 damage with an Enchantment then another 2 with an instant or with creature ability and stack that with 2 or 3 opponents, you are looking at 9 mana off to play a creature. Use your battle phase to do another 5 damage for example and you can pretty much play any Eldrazi for free.

Playing Rakdos means using those cheap instant and sorcery cards that no one uses, for cheap mana, and create a stacking effect for Rakdos to pump out the big boys for super cheap.

Major flaw I can see is being left vulnerable for the first 4 or 5 rounds before able to play Rakdos. After that, it's going to be chaos.

If you are fortunate to also field a planeswalker to go with Rakdos, you are on your way to much success.

This build is. Avery expensive build, so the Titans you want to eventually field, I've added to my maybe list. You can field 26 of the 31 creatures for less than $60 if you had to buy them all. Though the 5 most expensive creatures end up being around $60 too. This build should be around a $200 deck. If you want to maximize with the top Eldrazi creatures, you are looking at another $150 on top of that.

But this is going to be a very fun deck! It's still a work in progress, so feel free to correct me and add options. I didnt add much ramp on purpose, FYI.
