Deck overview

This Rakdos discard-madness deck, helmed by Malfegor, aims to weaponize emptying its own hand while forcing opponents to sacrifice creatures and discard cards. The primary game plan revolves around using discard outlets (Inti, Seneschal of the Sun, Anje's Ravager, Chainer, Nightmare Adept) to fuel madness spells and graveyard synergies, then deploying Malfegor as a mass edict that clears the board and triggers payoffs like Syr Konrad, the Grim and Painful Quandary. The deck wins through incremental drain, combat damage from evasive threats (Kroxa, Titan of Death's Hunger, Rankle, Master of Pranks), and attrition via hand disruption. It lacks fast combos, instead grinding out value over time.
