Mistress Judith and the Rakdos Club

Duel Commander Aggro BR (Rakdos) Burn Competitive

holker


Welcome to the guild of Rakdos where destruction, pain and brutality are common things. This deck is all about damage without regard to losses. It wants to end the game as soon as possible and punishes the enemy with painfull burns. So enjoy a deck full of chaotic creatures that want to win at any cost.

Strategy

This is a aggro deck that shares many aspects with mono red decks. The goal is to cast one threat after the other so the opponent can´t keep up. A typical curve consists out of a one drop that either has 2 power or haste followed by a hasty two drop or (even better) two other one drops. Judith, the Scourge Diva comes in to play on the third turn, boosting the team and preventing useless deaths by mass removals. The game usually ends with cards like Ball Lightning or Territorial Hellkite.

Cards and Synergys


Creatures

As mentioned befor most of the early game creatures have haste so they can deal as much damage as possible. But other upsites are welcomed too, like the gravecrawling abillity.Bloodsoaked Champion and Dread Wanderer are good examples for annoying threats that start coming back sooner or later. Bloodghast and Scrapheap Scrounger are cost efficient gravecrawlers that avoid counterspells.

Legion Loyalist: a great card against Sai, Master Thopterist, Prossh, Skyraider of Kher or other token decks.

Vexing Devil: is not really considered as a turn one play but rather as a one mana Lava Axe

Goblin Bushwhacker: solid second turn play and gets better later in the game.

Loyal Apprentice: brings a lot of power to the board, basically one of the best red cards

Blood Artist and Zulaport Cutthroat: supporters for Judiths ping abillity, especially good with a sac outlet

Loyal Subordinate: a good tool against stax decks and cards like Ghostly Prison

Plague Engineer: basically a hate card against token decks, elves and other aggro decks

Yahenni, Undying Partisan+Falkenrath Aristocrat: solid haste creatures that also function as sac outlets and get indestructible
