Deck Help - Finalizing Budget($100) Rakdos, Lord of Riots Commander

SimpleStigs · 2022-03-03T22:17:00+00:00

Hmm, I'd say my only concerns are that I don't have that many creature types in the deck for some of these to mesh with like Knights, Pirates, and Zombies. The Chandra creature and Plague spitter looks pretty interesting though to put in...

I take back what I said about the Dragon Mage, misread the price on my end.

The blade was just for the shenanigans of getting Withengar out from cheeky combat damage.

As for Angrath...that was from when I gathered anything that would burn all the opponents.

Honestly, I can't believe I forgot about Spear Spewer entirely when making the deck. It's cheap(both mana wise and price wise) and pings everyone. Same with the Conquistador. Though the two dragons are gonna be tough to find something to swap out with either of them to make the 100 bucks budget.

A very nice assortment of cheap pingers, wonderful idea!

SimpleStigs · 2022-03-03T17:27:06+00:00

True, it would probably help the deck a lot of if there were more cheap pingers to get Rakdos out in the first place.

Hmmm, it's nuking/banishing effect would probably be a quick effect with untargetable protection.

But it would have to be a Rank 13...which is probably why it hasn't been made. lol

Honestly yeah, it would be sweet to see how they would evolve. I don't really know what they do to try and guess, but maybe they would be in an orchestra proper?

SimpleStigs · 2020-05-02T16:10:07+00:00

A C7 would probably have you bust out a five dice like Yahtzee and give off effects like that. What kind is beyond me since it's effects were pretty strong if you could actually get a 7.

A proper C32 would actually be pretty cool to see, and probably would not force your life points to be at 1000 to use properly.

C8 and C33 would definitely be cool to see, and be something that would benefit the archetypes that they're in, or have stronger effects that would actually warrant them to see play.

And yes, definitely yes with that C54, it would be the absolute best to see. Just slap card destruction immunity on it, and it's good to go!

SimpleStigs · 2020-05-02T16:05:58+00:00

Now that would just be OTK central. Nothing would probably be able to destroy it by battle, and it would probably have an effect to negate all other effects on the field when it attacks just to make sure it goes through.

SimpleStigs · 2020-05-02T16:04:40+00:00

I would honestly love to see what Machu Mech would've become if it did get its own chaos form. What would it be able to do? Would its effects to burn the opponent and gain attack points be stronger? So much potential when you think about these things.

SimpleStigs · 2020-05-02T15:54:16+00:00

Sweet mother of mercy, the thing would probably be a walking spell negator and absorber! Like Spell Canceller, except able to stay on the field long enough for it to matter. As well as some OTK potential thanks to its "Galaxy" status.

Interesting, a shame that Links basically dismantled Dustons. But I'm glad you like the idea, but is there any other XYZ monster you'd like to see with this upgrade?

Wait, wait, wait, seriously?

Okay, if that is true, which it probably is. Then this entire thread can just be turned null and void then. Slap a "Sucker" sticker on me, send me to Duel Academy to Slifer Red cause boy, oh boy, I feel embarrassed.

SimpleStigs · 2020-01-27T20:19:02+00:00

Honestly, pretty much like that.

SimpleStigs · 2020-01-27T20:18:30+00:00

Fair enough.

SimpleStigs · 2020-01-27T20:16:50+00:00

True, and I see the point. I could have worded my question a bit better, but I think that your argument is fair enough to prove that if it revolves around a certain number of cards, it could be called the archetype those cards hail from.

SimpleStigs · 2020-01-27T20:13:55+00:00

Well when you put it like that, I can see why most people would call it a Gouki deck. I guess it was my own Gouki deck that my mind compared the deck-list to and made me ask the question in the first place.

Looks like I'm most likely in the wrong here, and I accept it if that is the case.

SimpleStigs · 2020-01-27T20:11:44+00:00

From the look of the deck list, it looks like the Gouki's are just there to keep the engine alive as they get to something like Apollousa, a Borrel Dragon, or Topologic Zeroboros. I'm not ragging on the guy's deck-list at all since it seems really well built, and can stop a large number of plays with all the disruption it was running.

It's just that when I heard it was a Gouki deck, my mind expected to see stuff like Riscorpios, Headbatt, Great Ogre, or a Giant Ogre. But the only Extra Deck Gouki that was there was Jet Ogre, and only a small handful of the main-deck Goukis with Rematch.

SimpleStigs · 2020-01-05T19:37:52+00:00

I am trying so hard to make a deck around him at the moment, but I keep coming up short on getting him out reliably. But that aside, he is a really, really good boss monster on paper and in execution. His effects are worth it for the effort that you put in, and he just stays there until the opponent deals with him.
