A deck that focuses on dealing damage to opponents quickly and efficiently, such as a burn or aggro deck, would benefit from including Rakdos, Lord of Riots. This card can be particularly strong in a deck that can consistently deal damage to opponents early in the game, allowing for a discounted cost on powerful creature spells. While there may be better cards depending on the specific strategy of the deck, Rakdos can be a strong inclusion in the right build and could see play in aggressive decks looking to close out games quickly with powerful creatures.

Rules

11/10/20

Damage dealt to a player causes that player to lose that much life.

11/10/20

Rakdos’s last ability can’t reduce the colored mana requirement of a creature spell you cast.

11/10/20

Rakdos’s last ability cares about the total life lost, not necessarily what an opponent’s life total is compared to what it was at the beginning of the turn. For example, if an opponent loses 5 life and then gains 10 life in a turn, creature spells you cast will cost less to cast.

11/10/20

Rakdos’s last ability won’t reduce the cost to cast Rakdos itself. It applies only to creature spells you cast once Rakdos is on the battlefield.
