I'm a skred player, but I wanted to splash a color within this archetype. However the splash become a bit more than that and I think my decklist is more relevant to this thread.
I basically wanted the improved removals that black gives while keeping red finishers.
I've also played walkers heavy lists in the past but they are harder and harder to protect. Although Kalitas is way too easy to remove compared to stormbreath and hazoret. Batterskull could be an option but I don't want too many 5cc creatures.
I also think that Electrodominance is a lowkey revolution for this deck : being able to play draw-go and drop your threat or a wipe in instant speed is a really needed flexibility in this archetype.
However, I haven't got much time to try this brew and I won't have until a few weeks passes by.
Here's a few honorable mentions I've tried or thought about but didn't make the list (they are a walker, or too hard/expensive to cast, or not really useful) :
Ob Nixilis Reignited, Liliana of the Veil, Koth of the Hammer, Kolaghan's COmmand, Dismember, Phyrexian Obliterator, Batterskull.
I wanted to try bedevil over terminate. So far it's been pretty good and the 3cmc hasn't been a problem.
Kalitas is a new addition and it seems underwhelming but I haven't trully tested it already.
