Based off a brew that someone in a discord I frequent shared. Original designer created a monoblack version, this is my take on a Rakdos (BR) version. Curious to see if people think it might be FNM-worthy.
Current Modern Decks BG Elves // "He's back. And he brought his friends. And their friends." BG The Rock // "Dwayne Johnson approved." RU Izzet Phoenix // "If you can't beat 'em, join 'em." UGW Bant Spirits // "Super Ghost Bros." BUG Sultai Wildnerness Teachings // "How many turns did I just take again?" C Colorless Eldrazi // "Smash you."
With a couple of Blood Moons and some number of Terminates/Dreadbore/Anger of the Gods taken from the SB into MB, you've basically got a RB control deck with a Demigod beatdown plan. I've faced a deck like that at my local FNMs, and it stomps the living daylights out of many a greedy midrange decks. I don't see a reason why this deck would perform much worse.
My guess is Lashwrithe is too cute, just 1-2 Demigods in and of themselves should be sufficient to kill your opponent. I'd be in for a couple of Risk Factor in a deck like this, perhaps in the SB, as well as a couple of Sweltering Suns in MB if your meta has Humans/Spirits or any other swarm type decks.

There's actually a thread in here for that deck already
Thanks for the advice! Do you guys happen to have a link to said deck thread?
