This is the exact card we wanted, but never thought we'd get. After they spoiled the Chainwalker (the 2/1 Unleash for 1R) I was sure we were never gonna get this card. But here it is.
Yay, slamming this in cube! I can't see him not making the cut in any cube honestly. isn't this redcap level good?
If you want a laugh you can read the spoiler thread in the rumor mill where some kids are crying about how weak the Rakdos one drop is, and that it needed haste.
Just in the sheet amount of work this set is making me do to my multicolored section I'm in love with it. This is exactly the kind of card I wanted to get for BR. Red already loves aggro and I'm trying to make aggro the secondary trait for Black. So excited to cube the crap out of this!
why even have a thread on this one? every cube of every size should include this without any thought. even if you don't support black aggro it effortlessly makes the cut as a red card.
When I see Healing Salve, I'm often like "Oh girl, I wish I could turn every card into this." Thanks they removed the gain life part, otherwise this would have been broken.
This guy should make Shred Freak better no, cube constructionwise I would think. Adding these two makes red and black aggro better, without having to put both a red and black aggro card in the cube. So you could actually save a spot if you don't want to strengthen aggro numerically.
I could just count this and the shred freak as one for red and one for black but than I would still want some better gold cards for my B/R gold section.
Thank the maker. This is one of the best aggro creatures available. SO sick.
Seriously. This is perfection in so many ways.
However, Rakdos-slots have some serious competition. I'm upgrading to 5x cards from a guild but still have issues picking cards.
I mean, hell, we're all on a forum for something that most people would describe as a "children's card game"...do what makes you happy. You are never too old to enjoy yourself.
For me, it's pretty easy. I think Rakdos is weak. The three good cards from this set will have no problem making it in. The only survivors from the old cards that will still be there are Redcap and Aristocrat, and the only one I'm really happy about keeping is the Redcap.

1. Crackler (1cc)
2. Shred-Freak (2cc)
3. Dreadbore (upgraded terminate)
Those are solid picks.
4 & 5 = some combination of blightning, rakdos's return, and murderous redcap.
As it stands, red aggro and black aggro in the cube got WAY better thanks to this card and other Rakdos goodies.

I think Rakdos's Return is pretty crappy.
I agree. I think it's awful.
