🎰 The Infamous Cruelclaw – Rakdos Slot Machine Commander Deck (EDH, 100 Cards) – Spin Big, Discard Fast, Win Hard 🐾
Meet The Infamous Cruelclaw, a rogue with a taste for chaos and a flair for the dramatic. This deck plays like a slot machine made of cardboard—each combat trigger is a gamble, a spin, and a chance to unleash madness, mayhem, or meteoric power.
💥 Strategy Overview
Every time Cruelclaw connects with an opponent, you exile a nonland card from the top of your library and can cast it for free—then discard a card. That discard? It’s not a downside here—it’s fuel.
Spin the Wheel:
Hit with Cruelclaw, exile something wild, and cast it for free. Could be Wayfarer's Bauble. Could be Etali, Primal Storm. The suspense is half the fun.
Profit from Discard:
Loaded with Madness cards like Fiery Temper, Terminal Agony, and From Under the Floorboards that you can cast after being discarded. Cards like Squee, Goblin Nabob and Dogged Detective give you no-loss discards, and permanents like Dying to Serve and Faith of the Devoted reward you for pitching cards every turn.
Make It Unblockable:
Thieves' Tools, Rogue’s Passage, and Access Tunnel keep Cruelclaw sneaking through defenses. Fireshrieker turns him into a double trigger machine.

🔥 Key Synergies
Cruelclaw + Fireshrieker = Two triggers, twice the chaos
Combustible Gearhulk, Etali, Magmatic Force = Jackpot hits
Madness cards + Bag of Holding, Dying to Serve, and Faith of the Devoted = Continuous pressure
Blood Money + Decree of Pain = Board wipe and treasure galore
MDFCs like Zof Consumption and Akoum Warrior = Cast or play as lands to smooth your game
⚙️ Note on MDFCs
This deck includes three double-faced cards: Zof Consumption, Bloodsoaked Insight, and Akoum Warrior. They’re primarily lands and help you cast your huge spells naturally—but they can also be big hits off Cruelclaw. If not using MDFCs, feel free to swap for basic lands. Use opaque sleeves or checklist cards to play them properly.
