Rakdos, Lord of Riots, Legendary creature — demon, designed by Vincent Proce first released in Oct, 2012 in the set Return to Ravnica and was printed exactly in 8 different ways. It see play in 1 formats: Commander. It's a key card in 4 combos.
A deck that focuses on dealing damage to opponents quickly and efficiently would benefit from using Rakdos, Lord of Riots, as it incentivizes opponents losing life to reduce the cost of casting powerful creatures. While Rakdos can be a strong inclusion in aggressive decks, there are potentially better cards depending on the specific strategy and format, such as Griselbrand for reanimation strategies or other efficient creatures for more consistent aggression. Overall, Rakdos can be a strong choice in the right deck but may require specific support to ensure its effectiveness.

Damage dealt to a player causes that player to lose that much life.

Rakdos’s last ability can’t reduce the colored mana requirement of a creature spell you cast.

Rakdos’s last ability cares about the total life lost, not necessarily what an opponent’s life total is compared to what it was at the beginning of the turn. For example, if an opponent loses 5 life and then gains 10 life in a turn, creature spells you cast will cost less to cast.

Rakdos’s last ability won’t reduce the cost to cast Rakdos itself. It applies only to creature spells you cast once Rakdos is on the battlefield.
