This deck doesn’t rely on infinite combos to win or even play. This deck is more fair and uses Xantcha, Sleeper Agent for card draw to keep the steam going.

The deck revolves around enchantments causing players to lose life. Mana Barbs, Havoc Festival, and Power Surge are some of those enchantments. The deck also has a Demon Subtheme. The demons are really good about spreading the pain. Sower of Discord, Archfiend of Depravity, and Archfiend of Despair are really fun.

The deck is designed to win by chipping our opponents Life away with taxing effects, and then have Demons swoop down for the kill.

I’ve had fun playtesting the deck! It’s plenty fair and got me into playing Rakdos, one of the color groupings I haven’t found myself play in.
