Deck overview

This mono-red deck turns the entire table into a chaotic gladiatorial arena centered around Khârn the Betrayer. Khârn prevents all damage dealt to himself and shifts control to an opponent, triggering his ability to draw two cards every time control changes. By pairing Khârn with pingers like Cunning Sparkmage and Electric Seaweed, you continuously pass him around the table while refilling your hand at unmatched speed. Secondary threats like Alexios, Deimos of Kosmos and Slicer, Hired Muscle accelerate the carnage by attacking each opponent every turn cycle. A deep suite of goad spells, damage doublers such as The Sound of Drums and Death Kiss, and maze lands like Mystifying Maze keep incoming attacks deflected away from your life total. Once opponents have battered each other into low life totals, utility spells like Homeward Path, Brand, and Hot Pursuit let you reclaim your board and deliver the finishing blow.
