Anyone have any suggestions on what to put in a red black standard deck just starting out played with red deck. Really like attack and kill way of playing. Thanks in advance
Also I really like wight of prescient six and cryptborn horror what would be good with these
I would suggest going with a human aggro deck. {Xathrid Necromancer} is really good and makes the deck really good. Some suggestions are {Mogis's Marauder} (probably the best card in the deck), {Tormented Hero}, {Exava, Rakdos Blood Witch}, {Rakdos Shred-Freak}. And for some none humans you can use {Rakdos Cackler} and {Spike Jester}. Oh and {Madcap Skills} is really really good.
Look at the slaughter games in the standard deck section. It's my competitive RDW with splash black. That's about what most people will tell you to build.
{gray merchant of asphodel} + {rakdos, lord of riots}.
Thanks. If my opponent loses 4 lives can I play lord of riots without paying mana cost or did I read wrong

Its two colorless mana not colored mana. And I dont suggest playing lord of riots. He is too conditional and is a lot harder to get out than it looks.
he doesn't cost less he just cant be casted unless an opponent lost life. your other spells cost less colorless mana once hes on the field and losing life. people hate on {rakdos lord of riots} and yet i think his downside is much better than {desecration demon}. i have seen numerous games where a player needed a chump blocker to live and dropped deso demon. opponent sacs a vanilla dude tapping down deso demon and blowing out the player. at least rakdos is always a chump blocker if you can cast him, which shouldnt be too hard.
edit: especially in black red where you can just {shock} or {magma jet} your opponent if your not attacking.
Ok thanks

The issue is that he costs two black and two red. You can consistently cast him on turn four. exava is a better finisher and you can consistently cast t4
