This is the big red/ Red devotion list I will be playing post rotation. Rather than playing Red Deck wins I decided to go bigger and add in larger creatures and because I feel there will be a lot of midrange decks with the release of Khans of Tarkir.
Eidolon of the Great Revel: This isn't an ideal turn 2 play, but it is something that is useful against aggro decks. It also adds 2 devotion for 2 mana which is great to turn on Purhporos, Nykthos, and Fanatic of Mogis.
Generator Servant
: This guy is a boss. He is a way to make turn 3 Stormbreath and also helps with turn 4 Elspeth. If I need a chump blocker, he will do but he mostly helps power out my big guys early.
Goblin Rabblemaster: Arguably the best red card in standard. He can act as early pressure and creates great advantage late game.
Hammer of Purphoros: This card adds 2 devotion for Purphoros/Nykthos and give my deck something to do with extra lands. It isn't the ideal turn 3 play, but it is useful enough to include.
Fanatic of Mogis: This won't be the big finisher like it was during RTR-THS Red devotion but it comes down and is able to deal damage immediately which is great to close games out in the late game.
Purphoros, God of the Forge: Playing mono red means that I will have the opportunity to turn this guy into a creature and attack. Also his activated ability is useful to make Goblin tokens bigger attackers. Also dealing 2 damage for every creature helps push additionally damage through in the late game. Having Purphoros out with Elspeth +1s demands and answer or the game is over quick.
Twinflame: It's amazing as a 1 of. It works well with Rabblemaster and Dragon. Also making a copy of Fanatic of Mogis is cute too. It can end up doing alot of damage for the cost of 1R.
Stormbreath Dragon
: This guys is a big reason to play red post rotation. He misses a lot of good removal and can fly over big creatures. Just a solid beater and the main game ender for this deck.
Elspeth, Sun's Champion: I decided to splash white for access to chained to the Rocks and Banishing Light out of the board. With the amount of Midrange decks I expect post rotation
Chained to the Rocks: The main reason to splash white. Cheap removal for big, troublesome creatures.
Searing Blood
: I expect Mono Black Aggro, Mono Red Aggro, and Temur Ramp to be the popular decks in the first few weeks. Having main board answers to aggro creatures, and mana dorks is going to be important to preserve life, and slow down the ramp decks. Being able to kill a dork and bolt your opponent is great.
Stoke the Flames
: If I am seeing that Chained isn't enough to deal with the bigger X/4 threats, I will probably mainboard more of these.
Notable exclusions:
sarkahn, dragonspeaker: I think he may have a place with Stormbreath but not being pro-white is a little downside. However, being able to decide between a Mizzium Mortars and a 4/4 Flyer is something I think this deck will want, I just don't know the numbers yet.
