Hi all

So here is a Rakdos Dragon deck led by none other than Bladewing the Risen.

This deck focuses on getting creatures into graveyards so you can bring them back with spells or Bladewing himself - so let's get into it!

Ramp:

Like any deck with high average cmc spells, we are running artifacts to help us get to that 5/6 cmc mark as early as possible. We have hopefully played at least one by turn 3/4. Sarkhan, Fireblood doubles up as ramp & utility, helping us draw & put cards into the yard. Caged Sun will always say red when it enters, making our red mana sources tap for double as well as buff our dragons - which are mostly red.

Utility:

Spells like Buried Alive, Entomb and Faithless Looting help us with our recursion spells like Animate Dead, Dread Return, and of course Bladewing the Risen himself. Removal is pretty straight forward, looking to kill the things that are a problem for us. Sarkhan, the Dragonspeaker acts as removal and a creature. His ulti is a dream that I have/will probably never reach!

+1 if you like!
