Found out my favorite Rakdos Coffee shop was shut down today by Azorius due to a health code violation :(

How am I supposed to make it through the work day without my caffeine? I don't know what they put in the coffee there that made me so energized for the rest of the day, but no other place has been able to replicate it!

So, I’ve been pretty vocal about saying the guild system SUCKS. But you know what’s even worse?

This living guildpact bullshit. First we get some twink who keeps fucking directly off and not doing his job. What the fuck was he doing? Especially when we had like. 3 guild leaders murdered before the big war with the dragon and zombies invading.

Then we get Niv-mizzet. And I’m sorry to any Izzet followers, but he was the worst choice for a living guildpact. He is the FOUNDER of the Izzet, his own personal cult of personality. He’s antisocial, preferring to hide away and do research than to actually intervene when GUILD LEADERS ARE DYING AGAIN, and sure he SAYS he isn’t going to be biased. But he’s spent a few thousand years hanging out with one guild, do we actually fuckin believe that??

Rakdos would have been a better pick. At least he isn’t interested in scheming.

Outlaws of Thunder Junction + Tumblr Textposts Part 2

I forgot that I can actually post this art to tumblr now that this character has appeared on screen.

This is the Painter, Genevieve's mysterious rakdos paramour who recently gave her a cursed haruspex knife that is DEFINITELY not evil. In case you thought romance was dead.

Kinda funny how the leading examples of black combined with their ally colors are destruction, either of the body with rakdos, or of the mind with dimir. However, when combined with enemy colors, black actually shows its capacity to preserve. The golgari preserve life, even in the dead and discarded. The Orzhov preserve the spirits of the dead, in this case to exploit them. Notably, on ravnica, the Orzhov and golgari uniquely have resurrection magic, while the dimir and rakdos commit crimes(thank you thunder junction)

This makes me think of the land that generates black mana: the swamp. Swamps are places where people are lost forever. They are places with some of the most hidden dangers of the world, and the most desperate to survive. They are places with creatures most reviled, but just as important to their ecosystem as any other. They are places that naturally mummify and preserve the dead they keep. The swamps remember every thing that happens to them. Every slight, every hope and dream.

A swamp is a place where things go to die, and in death, become eternal.

She knows a thing or two about a carnage

My pods response to my Rakdos Group Slug deck is someone brewing up a Toxrill deck, the steal deck forgoing a win con to put in more steal cards, and a white/blue control deck. I'd say I have only myself to blame, but I still think I'll win, cause the steal deck doesn't realize that just helps me put more punishment on the field

Rakdos has the commanders who serve the most cunt

[ask-khali-lineslinger]

The lights in the theater dim, the spotlight flicks on. Khali stands there, dressed in a fine leather showgirl outfit, dyed Rakdos red and black.

“The Eldrazi!" she begins, sweeping her arms skyward. "They nearly wiped out all of Zendikar before they were destroyed by the Gatewatch! Even their smallest broodspawn can drive you mad with but a single touch, or turn your body to ash if you get too close! Very few remain among the living, but I have captured one and tamed it to my will! Behold! The most dangerous creature in the multiverse!”

Ok, yes, that was just a krasis created by @combinecutie, but the audience doesn't need to know that! Besides, where was I going an actual Eldrazi spawn on such short notice?

Have you guys ever thought about the difference between Devils and Demons?

Like, I know devils in the Cult are like, smaller, whimsical, etc etc, but what’s the line? Can a devil still like bloodlust and chaos and destruction? Can a demon heckle bad comedians? Any Cult of Rakdos members able to talk about the distinction?

[biomancy-blues]

Ok fun update on my life: there are currently 2 EXTREMELY WASTED Rakdos performers outside my apartment complex yelling about what the most enjoyable method of disembowelment is for everyone involved. Yelling. In the middle of the night. About disembowelment.
