Heya guys, I'm currently working on a Rakdos Aggro build (Note Rakdos not Zombie) and have 3 spots open to fill the 3 Mana Gap.
Things I was thinking of Rakdos Keyrune (Survives field wipers/holds off Thragtusk's) Hellhole Flailer (4/3 for 3 Mana and can Burn for 4) Pyreheart Wolf (Makes you're creatures bit more evasive and has Undying)
What do you guys prefer to fill the slots with or what gives overal better performances.
Greetings,

Playtest against different decks with a split card that can be cast as either Rakdos Keyrune , Hellhole Flailer or Pyreheart Wolf and decide which one you like more often.

Brimstone Volley , since you'll be playing mostly creatures and Morbid will be easy to turn on.

Volley is likely to already be there. Creature wise, Guttersnipe is good for that extra burn when you play a kill/burn spell. [Vampire Nighthawk[/c] is also a good call as it comes with flying + lifelink. Messenger is just good, though a little tough on mana at BBB. That's all I got off the top of my head

You might also want to think about splatter thug. unleash for 2R and unleashes for a 3/3 first strike, fairly decent. I would suggest keyrune out of all the choices. Hope this helps.

Hey guys thanks for the replies, Brimstone is indeed allready in the deck
I play to little instant/sorcery to make a real use out of Guttersnipe the Nighthawk is good but it's sideboarded. Messenger is a great card but for B/R Zombie i'm playing R/B Rakdos more redbased triple black would be a problem in here.
Hmm Splatterthug is rather interesting yes also big enough to punish tusk's.
Yea on the moment i'm hanging more towards the Keyrunes because outside of it's 3/1 First strike body that dodges fieldwipers it's also a mana fixer and could get Hellkites out at turn 4

1 of Olivia Voldaren also might be a nice consideration for main or sideboard. Just a nice 4 drop that popped into my head.

Consider posting the entire deck list: I don't see how you can get good suggestions without the context of the other cards you are using.

Pretty much ALL the Rakdos builds are the same, variating between 5/6 cards Same goes for B/R Zombies ;p
