Deck overview

This Rakdos deck uses Kardur, Doomscourge to control multiplayer combat and grind down opponents. By deploying Kardur on Turn 4, the deck forces all opposing creatures to attack each other while protecting your life total. It maintains this pressure by pairing sacrifice outlets and one-mana recursion spells like Feign Death and Undying Evil to re-trigger Kardur across consecutive turn rotations. Opponents wear each other down through mandatory attacks and Kardur's death drains. Once the table is thinned to a 1v1 state or low life totals, the deck finishes the game on Turn 8 with mass theft sorceries like Mob Rule or Hot Pursuit. While vulnerable to spell-based combo decks and exile removal, the strategy excels at turning opposing creature boards into lethal weapons against their owners.
