This is one of my first decks so bear with me here!

A Rakdos midrange deck taking advantage of the power of Mogis as well as other new BNG cards like Flame-Wreathed Phoenix and Herald of Torment . The deck uses a combination of low CMC creatures and removal to pave the way for larger creatures like Exava, Rakdos Blood Witch and Flame-Wreathed Phoenix .









I would like help making this deck more competitive (especially against the control matchup), so any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!







Creatures:

Rakdos Cackler : An aggressive turn 1 2/2 creature that also helps provide devotion for Mogis.

Spike Jester : A 2-drop creature useful for getting early pressure that acts as a repeatable Lightning Strike.

Chandra's Phoenix : A 3-drop evasive creature that synergizes well with the burn spells.

Herald of Torment : A 3/3 flyer for 3 mana that also helps devotion?! Yes please.

Mogis's Marauder: Gives the deck's creatures evasion to help push through with damage.

Flame-Wreathed Phoenix : One of the few creatures where tribute is actually good.

Exava, Rakdos Blood Witch: A 4 power hasty attacker with first strike makes for a resilient beater.

Mogis, God of Slaughter: A bit difficult to achieve devotion, but his ability gets pressure and puts the opponent between a rock and a hard place.

Removal:

Dreadbore : Helps clear the way for early attackers.

Hero's Downfall: Dreadbore at instant speed? Who wouldn't want that?

Shock, Lightning Strike: Kills small creatures, works as burn, and helps get Chandra's Phoenix back from the grave.
