I was on Daily MTG and saw the deck that won GP Santiago it's a fast and powerful it uses lesser used cards like {Exava, Rakdos Blood Witch} {Mogis's Marauder} and other Black beats its a really cool deck and I was wondering what y'all tought about it?
Mind posting the list?
4x {Blood Crypt}
8x Mountain
10x Swamp
4x {Exava, Rakdos Blood Witch}
4x {Mogis's Maurauder}
4x {Rakdos Cackler}
4x {Spike Jester}
1x {Thrill-Kill Assassin}
4x {Tormented Hero}
3x {Xathrid Necromancer}
(So 6/8 are Humans. That's relevant for XN)
2x {Doom Blade}
4x {Lightning Strike}
4x {Madcap Skills}
SIDEBOARD:
2x {Burning Earth}
2x {Dreadbore}
2x {Erebos, God of the Dead}
2x {Mizzium Mortars}
1x {Rakdos Guildgate} (idk why? Maybe if he sides in mortars he wants R up?
4x {Thoughtseize}
2x {Whip of Erebos}
Pretty solid aggrp list but will likely become less and less impressive each week. Similar to mono blue devotion's day in the sun, a new deck with consistent aggression is best positioned to win major events right now. As we get more sets the increased opportunity to have a card pool that doesnt force achetypes to settle for sub par cards (looking at you {vapor kin}, {read the bones}, and {jace, archetect of thought}) will likely greatly weak the most straitforeward aggressive decks like this one. If you want to top 4 a local event easy then take this to it this week, next week however you will likely get stomped as this deck is only good against an unprepared foe.
Edit: gotta love tired typoes. Goodnight
True but I like it bc my whole meta is stupid Esper and I get to take away their {Doomblades}!! And I love Aggro
Plus with the {Xanthrid Necromancers} it just replaces itself post Verdict and can really hurt quickly with {Spike Jester}
I like the deck. It's cool and it seems fairly cheap
