Please select the columns you would like to see:

The strategy is to attach Enchanted-Aura cards, "Contaminated Bond" and "Sinister Possession," to an opponent's creatures. They lock your opponents from attacking, and if they decide to attack, they will be taking some damage for their action.

The deck also uses "Contaminated Ground" to make your opponent think twice before tapping this enchanted land for mana. It also makes this land a swamp, allowing creatures with "Swampwalk" ability to attack without being blocked. "Blistergrub" is one of these "Swampwalk" creatures and when it dies, your opponent's will lose some life too. The other "Swampwalk" creature is "Street Wraith" which is tough enough to take on a "lightning Bolt"

Black mana gives you one of the best creatures in Pauper "Gurmag Angler" so include one here. "Steel Walls" block attaching creatures while setting up the lock on your opponent's board. Typical Rakdos have the following cards: "Blightning", " Terminate", "Wrecking Ball" and "Lightning Bolt". These cards can cause direct damage to your opponents and take out troublesome creatures. The Flashback ability on "Bump in the Night" could finish your opponent in the late game.

As for land, there are mountains and swamps. "Evolving Wilds" helps to find these basic lands from your library. There are three different tap-lands in the deck. "Bloodfell Caves" fixes some of your mana requirements and gain one life when it comes into play. "Bojuka Bog" target opponents graveyard and empties it when put in play. "Rakdos Carnarium" can bounce "Bojuka Bog" and "Bloodfell Caves" to your hand to be played again.

On the sideboard, The deck has "Darkness," which prevent combat damage for a turn similar to "Fog" temporary dealing with "Burn" decks. "Smash to Smithereens" destroy artifacts while burnt those troublesome "Affinity" players. "Dash Hopes" for countering opponent's spell. "Sovereign's Bite" takes opponent's life while you gain some life in return. Extra "Terminate" to take out any other troublesome creatures. "Nihil Spellbomb" deals with more graveyard hate if "Bojuka Bog" is not enough. "AEtherflame Wall" blocks shadow creatures that sometimes show up in the Pauper format. "Crypt Rats" is a gem in this deck because it has the abilities to take out all the creatures on the board.

Please let me know what you think! :)

Updated (09/27/2023):

In: Nihil Spellbomb and Sovereign's Bite (Graveyard hate and extra spells to gain you life and hurt your opponents)
Maybe: Footlight Fiend
