Welcome to the Mad House. So the base deck is the Chaos Incarnate Starter, so I thought why not make it a Chaos deck. Fill it with loads of triggers to pop off every which way while I sit back and laugh.

So the fun begins with Kardur, Doomscourge *thick*'s legendary goad ability, the issue I thought of was commander tax, which is where Sanctum of Eternity comes in, once he is on the field his ability triggers and is there, that's making everyone fight everyone else and leaving you alone. It also means if you pick carefully, who you attack has no blockers, either tapped out or dead. But rather then leave him on the board use Sanctum of Eternity to return him to your hand and keep him there to cast again and avoid the tax.

The second combo I wanted to put in is what I lovely refer to as my bullet sponge. Barbed Servitor + Deadly Complication + Pariah's Shield. Obviously the main issue with Barded Servitor is no blocking, so getting rid of that is step one, then make all damage you receive hit him instead, what does he care, he's indestructible. And as his ability is "any" damage, you can feel free to ping it off an anyone of you opponents. Who has wronged you in the last 5 mins, just give them a face full of damage.

My favourite combo in this deck is the multiple Sac Curse, Double Vision + Wild Ricochet + Curse of the Cabal. Basically copy out the curse so everyone gets one, as the trigger is at "each" up keep, they will have to keep sacrificing to keep their own copy of the curse going off. Obviously the Double Vision + Wild Ricochet combo in it's self is a great Chaos combo. The other great card this going well with is Mayhem Devil all the forced sacs are gonna take a clean chunk out of their lives.

I've tried to get in some nice mana rocks to ramp to the higher level Demon spells. But all pepper it so if I am playing against an artifact deck I can nip in with Hellkite Tyrant for a cheeky win.
