This is my first draft at a B/R midrange deck going into the BotG season. I'm looking for something that can get going as quick as the old Rakdos Aggro decks with fewer liabilities and a strong late game punch. I tried to keep the deck strong early game but might have failed worrying too much about Bile Blight and Drown in Sorrow . Constructive criticism is appreciated so please help he win a GD promo this weekend! Thanks!~

Edit

Got a few games off against a friend of mine tonight against his B/R Rock/Devotion (more or less the mirror) and the deck performed pretty well against his slew of Gray Merchant of Asphodel's and removal. I won exactly half the games we played (ten in total) so I know there is definitely room for improvement. Thinking about mainboarding Erebos, God of the Dead because I boarded him in every second game and he always did a ton of work and I think it might be important to have a draw engine since I am running no Underworld Connections. Thoughts?

BTW, two Mogis's on the board and both players getting flooded makes for a terrible race. Though it did justify me running Lightning Strike. Top Deck Hero!
