The goal of this deck is to force your opponent to play out their hand with the large number of removal spells and sweepers in the deck. With the additional assistance of Sire Of Insanity, Thoughtseize and Rakdos's Return, you can disrupt your opponent to get your threats to stick. As additional pressure that forces their hand, you have Desecration Demon and Master of Cruelties. Rakdos Keyrune provides a serviceable blocker that can power out a crippling Rakdos's Return.
