I think Rakdos Control will be stronger than MBC in Theros simply due to the possibility of having board wipes and ridiculous hand hate with Crypt Ghast and Rakdos Return. Anger of the Gods works wonders against fast aggro decks, and Mizzium Mortars can't be ignored for when you're up against GW and other fatty playing decks.

I'm not in love with Lightning Strike, and I'm sure there is something that can replace it.
