Oh I didn't realize that.. Anyway I like this deck a lot and I'm going to try (a slightly cheaper version) of this deck hopefully this friday night. Unfortunately, I don't have a Purphoros, God of the Forge and he's a little too expensive. I think I'm going to lose x4 Tormented Hero for another Akroan Crusader and x3 Molten Birth . Since I have an Akroan Horse , I might just throw it in there, since I see this as a token generating deck (a really good one at that). I also really like the enchantment Dragon Mantle , even though Madcap Skills is good, but unfortunately I'd have to buy those for $1.50 at my card shop. I think that Massive Raid would be an excellent possible endgame. I personally see this deck as better with more red, which is partially why I chose Dragon Mantle , in addition to that card being a one drop and replacing itself with the draw effect.This deck for me:-x4 Tormented Hero -x1 Purphoros, God of the Forge -x1 Xathrid Necromancer (since I'm deciding to deviate a little more from the human tokens)-x3 Madcap Skills -x2 Dreadbore (just too expensive right now, I'm replacing it with doom blades/dark betrayals)-x2 Boon of Erebos (side boarding this unless I face a deck with heavy destruction)-x2 Magma Jet (another card too expensive at the card shop- $2.50-I'm replacing it with lightning strikes; more damage, but no scry and cheaper for me)+x1 Akroan Crusader +x1 Young Pyromancer +x3 Molten Birth +x4 Massive Raid +x3 Dragon Mantle +x2 Lightning Strike
As Far as land I think I'm going for run 4 Rakdos Guildgate , 12 Mountain , 6 Swamp
In General: Slightly less human emphasis, and just more tokens in general.
I look forward to testing this at FNM and will tell you how it goes!

I really love this deck and have a very similar rakdos version.
Recently I decided to move into a Grixis version of it though, Veneno, Master of Puppets
I would appreciate any and all help I can to make it more competitive.
Cheers

A lot of players haven't caught on to the fact that Tymaret, the Murder King is awesome mid game, as an infinite chump blocker. With one in play and one in the grave.
Block with Tymaret, the Murder King, then 1B sac to the one in grave, next turn cast RB. Repeat until you top deck. (Basically 4 mana a turn)
