Is Riveteers Rampage worth buying?

from Streets of New Capenna Commander Decks: Are They Worth It? by Ignacio (Iñaki)

Jund is one of my favorite color combinations, and this deck plays right into its strengths. Very big creatures being very aggressive while also having some graveyard interaction? Sign me up! It also makes Riveteers Rampage one of the easiest to upgrade or modify out of the five decks. You just need big creatures and a will to hit your opponents hard and fast.

This deck’s most expensive card stays in the 1-digit limit but it still has a pretty nice price, and the sheer number of valuable cards also makes it a good investment.

I personally like this deck but I’m not entirely sure how strong it is. There aren’t all that many ways to get your creatures back from the graveyard and you may end up getting yourself stuck if you sacrifice one too many creatures at the wrong time. But you also get to deal ridiculous amounts of damage in a single turn if you play your cards right.

It’s a high-risk high-reward kind of deck, and that’s a big part of what makes it fun.

How Riveteers Rampage plays

Not unlike Maestros Massacre, Riveteers Rampage is a deck that chooses to play strongly into its color combination’s archetypes. Henzie “Toolbox” Torre makes this deck focus on attacking with very large creatures very quickly.

Your devil rogue commander gives all of your creatures blitz while simultaneously reducing that blitz cost for each time your Henzie was cast, which makes playing huge cards like Artisan of Kozilek and Woodfall Primus really easy. This obviously means having to sacrifice them at the end of your turn, but there are cards like Kresh the Bloodbraided, Deathreap Ritual, and Industrial Advancement to take advantage of your creatures dying.
