Pretty straight forward Madness Blac/Red deck. The idea is to use discard cards (Lightning Axe, Oona's Prowler, Jaya Ballard, Task Mage, Tormenting Voice) to gain board control and card advantage with cards that are good when discarded (Madness cards, Demigod of Revenge, Haakon, Stromgald Scourge). Playing Dark Withering + Tormenting Voice or Fiery Temper + Tormenting Voice is pretty strongs and fun. You should keep the preasure with cards like Oona's Prowler and Reckless Wurm . Demigod of Revenge is a great finisher and if you have 2 in hand + Oona's Prowler in play or 1 in hand and 1 in the graveyard (thanks to the discard cards) you can make at least 10 damage on turn 5.A combo worth mentioning is Haakon, Stromgald Scourge + Nameless Inversion . You should discard Haakon, Stromgald Scourge with a discard card and then play it from your graveyard. If you happen to draw Nameless Inversion you'll be able to cast it as many times as you like.The deck has a lot of removal ( Dark Withering , Lightning Axe, Jaya Ballard, Task Mage, Nameless Inversion) and Duress is just a solid turn one play.The sideboard could be better, I just threw some cards that are good against non black decks ( Dark Withering , Gorgon Recluse ) and Cruel Edict is a hard removal for indestructible or protection for black/red creatures. Any sugestions are very welcomed.Finally the deck could have better lands, on the top of my head I would say shock and complete the set of pain fetch. Terminate can be replaced by Dreadbore or Hero's Downfall. Thoughtseize could replace Duress (it would even enable for a desperate self targeting discard for playing Reckless Wurm in a needy situation). Liliana of the Veil is pretty expensive but fits perfectly in the deck.If you have any questions or suggestions don't hesitate to post them! Thanks for reading!
