My local game store is doing a gruul versus azorius on the 23rd . Winner gets a box of gatecrash and some alternate art {Liliana of the Veil}. You can play in this tournament mono red, mono gree, red green, mono blue, mono white, and blue white. And it's double elimination. I am going to be playing rdw in this tournament. The only thing I am not sure about is if they will let me play {Rakdos Cackler}.
Since in will mostly be playing against blue white control, what cards should I include, and I don't have thundermaw.
An the format is standard
{Ash Zealot} I would say would be pretty important.
and {Hellrider} too!
Here is my deck list
Land 22:
2 {Cavern of Souls}
20 mountain
Creatures: 27
4 {Stromkirk Noble}
4 {ash zealot}
4 { gore-house chainwalker}
4 { hellrider}
4 {Pyreheart Wolf}
4 { rackdos cackler}
3 { vexing devil}
Spells 11:
4 { searing spear}
4 {pillar of flame}
3 { brimstone volley}
If I am not able to play rakdos cackler i will play {Reckless Waif} because control does not have allot of turn 1 and 2 plays
Bonfire?

No, {devil's play} is better when youre low on mana. Or {mizzium mortars}.
Also {Fervent Cathar} over pyreheart, he has haste and more or less does the same thing but faster. Also nasty tech forthese decks is {vexing devil} for early game damage and then T3 when your opponent is prepping wrath and lets you keep the devil you can pair it with {lighting mauler} and swing for 6 out of nowhere.
And lose the {pillar of flame} you wont need them against gruul or azorious colors.
So fare I know at least 40 Geist of saint tafts are going to be played
Also double {Electrickery} kills Geist
And no artifacts are aloud to so in don't have to worry about that thing that give your creatures x-0 and first stricke
I like {Pyreheart Wolf} becaus it stops them from flashing in resto or snap and blocking and it survives board wipes accept terminus
