To Red or not to Red?
I've been messing around trying to brew a discard pile to navigate the Island-fest that is scrub Mythic, and I immediately set my sights on [[Kroxa, Titan of Death's Hunger]]. He's a big boy, and he allows for a lot of shenanigans between GY plays and discard funsies.
My only problem so far has been that Rakdos feels very underwhelming, in terms of R's contribution: you can do some cute plays with [[Deflecting Swat]] and occasionally mess with ramp via artifact removal (and looting sometimes helps fill your own GY), but they pale in comparison to what B brings to the table, between excellent tutors, unconditional removal and drain effects.
After testing each iteration of the deck I just kept thinking "Damn, I wish I was playing Blue/White instead". White in particular would be optimal since I'd have access to taxes and other funsies, but the few Mardu commanders look kinda underwhelming, far too aggro focused for this kinda deck. Is this something I just have to learn to live with, or is there an angle on R I'm genuinely missing?
