Deck Notes
Evoke is such a cool mechanic, and Rakdos does it best. Kroxa is a terrifying engine. Since this deck doesn’t care about keeping him alive, it can chuck him at your opponent. Once he hits the graveyard, you can Escape him back to the field. As for your other Evokers, the Mirror-Breaker can keep making tokens to get all the ETBs over and over.
