Deck overview

This is a Rakdos (B/R) burn-ramp combo deck helmed by Ozai, the Phoenix King. The primary game plan revolves around deploying Ozai early (thanks to Sol Ring, Dark Ritual, Seething Song, and Jeska's Will), then using his haste and firebending 4 ability to generate immense floating red mana from attacks. Combined with mana-storage permanents like Horizon Stone, Electro, Assaulting Battery, or Leyline Tyrant, that mana persists through phases, enabling repeated activations of extra-combat enchantments like Aggravated Assault and Full Throttle. With enough loops, the deck generates infinite combat steps and infinite red mana, which it then dumps into massive X-spells such as Crackle with Power, Torment of Hailfire, Exsanguinate, or Comet Storm to eliminate all opponents in a single turn. Damage multipliers (Fiery Emancipation, Gratuitous Violence, Fated Firepower) further amplify the burn reach.
