Deck overview

This is a themed Rakdos combat deck built around Ozai, the Phoenix King, firebending mana, extra combats, and large attacks. Its strongest ordinary setup is Ozai, the Phoenix King, Aggravated Assault, and an attack-ready Fire Sages. The first attack can generate the five mana needed for another combat, creating a dangerous recurring engine when the creatures remain in play. The deck also has a real infinite-combat package in Combat Celebrant and Helm of the Host, with Godo, Bandit Warlord providing limited access to the Equipment. Neither route reliably guarantees damage through blockers, so the deck has no supported all-player finish on its ordinary clock. Mana acceleration, draw, and removal are functional, but expensive spells, singleton dependencies, limited tutoring, and weak protection leave the plan exposed. Bedlam, evasion Equipment, or a large finisher can improve individual games, but those cards are not reliably assembled with the primary engine.
