rakdos reanimate is a 100-card Commander deck led by Chainer, Nightmare Adept in the Rakdos color identity (black/red). TableCommander estimates this deck at bracket 4 — optimized / high-power.

The mainboard runs 27 creatures, 7 instants, 17 sorceries, 9 artifacts, 8 enchantments, and 32 lands, averaging 3.40 mana value across non-land cards. 65% of non-land cards cost 3 mana or less; 25% cost 5 or more.

Notable inclusions: 4 game changers (e.g. Orcish Bowmasters, Underworld Breach, and Demonic Tutor), 1 fast mana (Dark Ritual), 2 cheap tutors (Entomb and Lively Dirge), and 5 tutors (e.g. Gravebreaker Lamia, Hoarding Broodlord, and Oriq Loremage). This deck is currently Commander-legal on TableCommander.

Why bracket 4? — Optimized

3 early two-card combos: Worldgorger Dragon + Necromancy, Worldgorger Dragon + Dance of the Dead and 1 more

A two-card infinite combo cheap enough to assemble and win in the early game (data from Commander Spellbook). Bracket 3 decks are expected not to run these; any means Bracket 4.
