BFZ Standard Deck Feature: Rakdos Aggro

BFZ-Standard-Deck-Feature-Rakdos-Aggro
The Rakdos guild may already left Standard but the aggressive deck concept is still with this latest build of the deck. I am obviously a fan of these two colors since gaining my first Pro point at Grand Prix Singapore 2011 with B/R Vampires. To continue this tribute, here is my take of the Rakdos aggro deck for Battle for Zendikar Standard. Do note that most of the card choices were referenced from the results of the TCG Player Standard States last weekend.
