Hey everybody!
I'm currently trying to build a Rakdos deck with artifacts. (
Swamp &
Mountain )
The problem is, I recently just picked up playing Magic again ever since the application came out for iOS. I've already collected all the cards so I'm good to go for creating my custom deck. I've been playing with pre made decks and also made in app purchases so I can have the cards. Honestly, worth the investment for getting back into Magic. Especially, digitally. Playing on my iPad is exactly like the good old days when I had binders and binders of cards. On to my main reason for this additional thread...Lol!
I haven't been able to make any good custom decks. I've tried many times but I'm badly out of practice with making a really good deck. I used to have a few good ones physically but those days are long over unfortunately.
Here's what I have to work with when it comes to making a custom deck in the Magic 2015 iOS application for the iPad.
Here's all the
Swamp cards that I can use:

Mountain cards that I can use:

Swamp or
Mountain.

Here's a deck I've been trying out. This deck I haven't changed. If I do change it in the app, I update it on here to keep track of my statistics and for feedback if anyone ever does give any.
http://deckstats.net/decks/18912/109669-destrukt/enThe deck is meh in my opinion to a degree. It works in a way where if the other player doesn't kill me in the first 5 turns, I am able to lay out a good hand from time to time. Essentially, it's kind of a "Build up" kind of deck.
( Since I don't have much of the Magic terminology down, please just go with my terminology. )
In my mind though, I'm looking for a deck to be built in a way where I have cards play off of other cards in the deck. I believe this is called Synergy. I also want to be able to deflect anything casted at me right off the bat if possible. I know I would need a few instants I believe to do that. I'm also looking to layout creatures and build them up at rather quick pace. I would think it would be safe to assume that if some enchantments were to be thrown in there properly, this could happen.
As far as the Artifacts go, I would like to have a few thrown in there that would spice up the Rakdos deck. I'm not quite sure which ones to really put in there though to be honest.
Anyways, for anyone who reads this, thanks for taking the time to look into it and any advice to help put together an awesome deck with the cards I've listed above would be great!
