Overwhelming Riot

Commander / EDH

super simple, super strait-forward. First edh deck i built and probably my favorite. IT is weak becuase it relies heavily on rakdos lord of riots but will dominate and unprepared foe. more Casual than competitive

Land tutors not super important but i do want that forth land on turn for realy bad. Pilgrims ey gets me there as well as being an evasive attacker so that I may cast the lord himself. Expidition map is great because it gets any land usually urborg for mana fixing. Ive also considered chromatic lantern for mana fixing and ramp.Homeward path is strong. Pound for pound this deck includes the most powerful hitter so it often is hit by mind controls. It will be the the only colorless producing land. Bojuka bog hits graveyards because as someone who plays graveyard stratagies often I know how import it is to keep that under control. Forbidden orchard may seem bad but I like the fixing and the 1/1 spirit that doesnt fly doesnt hinder me but instead helps make friends

Card advantageI find myself with an empty hand a lot so being able to refil is great. Underworld connections, Phyrexian Arena, Necropotence are all three mana enchantments that start helping after I play rakdos on turn five. Demonic tutor helps smooth out any situation. Phyrexian reclamation, helps after board wipes. Because I want a crital mass o creatures I try to pack in as many creatures as I can that get me cards. Runscarred demon is sweet. And Grenzocan get huge allowing me to play any creature from the bottome of my deck.

Playing the LordI need to deal damage to play my commander this pakage lets me do that. All of them are evasive in one way even if its suicidal. nether traitor, lobbercrew, and pyreheart are special because of specific reasons. The traitor recurs itself so if im out of gas I can deal dmg to get rakdos back out. Lobber crew can hit twice when I play rakdos lowering cost by six in a normal 4 player game. Pyreheart gives all my guys evasion late game

Protecting the lordA small artifact sweet protect my commander from usual effects.

When all goes wrongSometimes I cant cast Rakdos so I need to get my fatties on the board. Sneak Attack, Quicksilver AmuletGame winnersSome cards put enormous pressure on my opponent or kill them out right. Blight steel and Maga traitor of mortals do this. While Platinum emperion and angel stabilize me

Value and defenseI do have a few cards that do little but give me a cusion while im attacking (1x Pathrazer of Ulamog [000] 1x grave titan 1x Artisan of Kozilek 1x It That Betrays 1x Wurmcoil Engine 1x Myr Battlesphere)

Control and answers I have to get creative if I want remain at a critical mass of powerful hitters so I only have six non creature control spells

The rest of my control answerThe best defence is a good offence, so as im laying down threats im putting up answers.
