Skelemental Awakening

Modern BR (Rakdos)

Minjisku


Sideboard


Maybeboard


This deck utilizes Stitcher's Supplier and Insolent Neonate to fill the graveyard and then play Thunderkin Awakener and Lightning Skelemental as the core combo of the deck. Games are typically over after 2 swings with skelly due to damage and discard.

The deck should run 3x Kroxa but I only own 1,so Egon, God of Death   is taking the place of those missing kroxa.

Sideboard:

Anger of the Gods :for your RDW and other "go wide" type matchups

Collective Brutality : this is really inquisition #5-6. You are looking to use these effects against decks like reanimator, and decks that run big spells.

Dreadbore : deals with big creatures lkke murktide reagent.

Feed the Swarm : you want this in any white match up that you think will have Rest in Peace . This isn't how you deal with high CMC threats, but can work in a pinch.

Inquisition of Kozilek : do your opponents get to sideboard against your graveyard? Yes? Side these in.

Kolaghan's Command : Kolaghan's and the next card are great against decks that make use of Stoneforge Mystic

Shattering Blow : nice way to make sure to get Kaldra Compleat and even lands in an affinity matchup. Could be subbed for Shenanigans.

Changes:

Subbed the 4x Insolent Neonate with 4x Dragon's Rage Channeler: this change morphed the rest of the deck to make delirium more possible but also had a harder time putting cards in the graveyard due to a low number of non-creature spells (was 17 at the time). Reverted this change.

Swapped 4x Spitebellows for 4x Ball Lightning : this is a meta call. The format right now is not high in threats that spitebellows will deal with that my 1 power creatures could not handle. The LTB trigger on spitebellows makes it awkward if your opponent has no creatures. The meta also has a high amount of removal. This means thunderkin awakeners are less likely to stay alive, so I will need to cast my elementals more often. Spitebellows is nearly uncastable, so ball lightning makes much more sense.

Swapped 2x Egon, God of Death   for 2x Ox of Agonas : good when you run out of gas, with only 1 Kroxa I don't think it's too much to ask to cast from the grave. It also isn't 100% dead in hand once there is RIP out which is nice
