-Rakdos, the Defiler is begging for a demon-tribal deck but that would steer too far away from being a guild-themed deck,
-Exava, Rakdos Blood Witch would certainly be flavorful, basically using all the unleash cards available but in multiplayer i'd have to focus 1-player and take them down with me before the group hates me out,
-Lyzolda, the Blood Witch was better but still I found that I was just getting carried away with the sac-engine and making the deck too weak without her in play.
That left me with Rakdos, Lord of Riots. Now I know he is basically begging to be played with Eldrazi but that is not going to happen. Not only would that deviate way too far from the guild-theme but I just hate Eldrazi anyway and try to avoid using them at all costs.
So this deck is not supposed to be super competitive BUT it's not going to being suicidal either. I want some staying power and control options, which is strange for the Cult of Rakdos but in multiplayer EDH I think even the Rakdos guild needs to adapt a tad.
The deck is 8 cards over the 100-card limit at the moment and so I need some help choosing what to cut. The main avenues of attack for the deck is group damage + lifegain, token sacrifice for damage/card draw, and deathtouch-pinging.

There are a few cards that I want to keep however for flavor purposes and so these won't be cut:
Rakdos Guildmage Bear with removal and token utility.
Rix Maadi Guildmage Bear with pinging and combat utility
Rakdos Riteknife Removal magnet and one-sided background wrath
Lyzolda, the Blood Witch Card draw/damage out of dead/dying creatures
Exava, Rakdos Blood Witch Just a solid mid-range beater with the option of being a solid blocker
Rakdos the Defiler Political card and also last-ditch nuke option.
