Rakdos aggro in my opinion is the best aggro deck around. It has the versatility of Black spells and the damage of Red spells. Plus the dual and scry lands are cheap! You can take out the Temples and Dual Land if you think the budget is too expensive.

Almost every card in this deck except for Rakdos Cackler and Gore-House Chainwalker has haste or pseudo-haste in the form of bestow.

Magma Jet is used to damage player or potential blocker as well as set up your next two draws, exceptionally important in aggro deck like this.

Dreadbore hits almost every creature and pesky planeswalkers.

Chandra's Phoenix has 8 cards for it to proc off, making you able to cast it a lot of times without repercussions.

Exava, Rakdos Blood Witch is your main finisher. It has haste and gives your otherwise non-hasty creatures haste. You will want to draw her and put her out on your fourth turn.

Sideboard

Sideboard is still a work in progress as I have only been to FNM once with this deck. Any help would be appreciated.

Duress to avoid getting Wrath'ed by Supreme Verdict or Anger of the Gods.Skullcrack to null your opponents' lifegain. Dark Betrayal and Doom Blade are cheaper removals for certain matchups.

Any suggestions on the deck feel free to comment! Will be updating quite frequently as I will be using this deck for the next FNM.
