一些萬智牌線上套牌清單終於再次向公眾開放，讓我們能夠更好地感受可能發生的任何元遊戲變化。現在，我們還可以看到玩家對各種格式提出的任何獨特和創新的方法。事實證明，一個非常酷的拉鐸司外殼濫用了地獄噩夢的力量，最近剛剛進入萬智牌在線現代挑戰賽的前 16 名。

This deck has a lot going on. The value that can be generated is through the roof. At the same time, this deck has access to draws that can help you end the game in short order. This deck’s strong performance cannot be denied, and it looks like we may finally have found a solid home for Lightning Skelemental.

這套牌有很多事情要做。可以產生的價值是巨大的。同時，這套牌可以進行抽牌，可以幫助您在短時間內結束遊戲。這套牌的強勁表現是不可否認的，看起來我們終於為閃電骷髏找到了一個堅實的家。

The main engine that gives this deck such immense grinding power is none other than Chthonian Nightmare. Chthonian Nightmare can repeatedly bring small creatures back from your graveyard to play, so long as you have sacrifice fodder lying around. Well, one of the more devastating cards to pair with Chthonian Nightmare is certainly Lightning Skelemental.

賦予這套牌組如此強大的磨礪能力的主要引擎正是地獄夢魘。只要你周圍有犧牲飼料，地獄噩夢就可以反覆將小生物從你的墳場帶回來玩耍。嗯，與地獄噩夢搭配的更具破壞性的卡牌之一無疑是閃電骷髏。

Lightning Skelemental has the potential to hit the opponent for six damage out of nowhere and force the opponent to discard two cards in the process. This is undoubtedly a powerful effect but has never fully lived up to expectations in Modern thus far. Unfortunately, Lightning Skelemental has always had a few major weaknesses.

閃電骷髏有可能突然對對手造成六點傷害，並迫使對手在此過程中棄掉兩張牌。這無疑是一個強大的效果，但迄今為止在《摩登》中從未完全達到預期。不幸的是，閃電骷髏始終有一些重大弱點。

The first issue with Lightning Skelemental is that it doesn’t add any board presence long-term. Paying three mana to get a big attack in and Mind Rot the opponent sounds nice, but if you’re on the backfoot at all, Lightning Skelemental doesn’t help in any way defensively. Second, as a one-toughness creature, Lightning Skelemental dies to tons of efficient removal spells. This can make it difficult to connect in combat in the first place. Fortunately, both of these problems are successfully addressed in this shell.

Lightning Skelemental 的第一個問題是它不會長期增加任何董事會存在。支付三點法力來發動大攻擊並讓對手頭腦腐爛聽起來不錯，但如果你完全處於不利地位，閃電骷髏在防守上沒有任何幫助。其次，作為一種單韌性生物，閃電骷髏會死於大量有效的移除法術。這可能會讓戰鬥中的連結變得困難。幸運的是，這兩個問題都在這個 shell 中得到了成功的解決。

When it comes to board presence, getting to pair Lightning Skelemental with Flare of Malice is a huge boon. This means that if your opponent chooses to take the full hit from Lightning Skelemental to try to attack on the crackback, you can sacrifice it to Flare to kill an opposing haymaker for free post-combat.

當談到董事會存在時，將閃電骷髏與惡意耀斑配對是一個巨大的福音。這意味著，如果你的對手選擇承受閃電骷髏的全力攻擊來嘗試攻擊反擊，你可以將其犧牲給耀斑，以在戰鬥後免費殺死對手乾草人。

With regards to removal, Chthonian Nightmare can help you recur Lightning Skelemental over and over. Eventually, the six damage attacks will add up. If the opponent goes to remove Lightning Skelemental, you can always sacrifice it to Flare of Malice or Village Rites in response to get some value. This deck is quite synergistic, and we’re just getting started.

在移除方面，地獄噩夢可以幫助你一遍又一遍地重現閃電骷髏。最終，六次傷害攻擊將會加起來。如果對手要移除閃電骷髏，你可以隨時將其犧牲給惡意耀斑或村莊儀式來獲得一些價值。這套牌具有很強的協同作用，而我們才剛開始。

As you might expect, there are other cards besides Lightning Skelemental that work well in conjunction with Chthonian Nightmare and Flare of Malice. By far the best creature to pair with these cards is Bloodghast. Bloodghast isn’t the most threatening card in the world, but the fact that it comes back from the graveyard with so little effort makes it a perfect inclusion here.

正如您所料，除了閃電骷髏之外，還有其他卡片可以與地獄噩夢和惡意耀斑配合使用。到目前為止，與這些卡牌搭配的最佳生物是血鬼。嗜血並不是世界上最具威脅的牌，但它毫不費力地從墳場回來的事實使它成為這裡的完美包容者。

With Chthonian Nightmare, Bloodghast ensures that you always have a creature to sacrifice at the ready. As a recursive body, you can sacrifice Bloodghast to Flare of Malice without falling behind on resources.

透過地獄噩夢，血噬確保你隨時都有可供犧牲的生物。作為一個遞歸體，你可以犧牲嗜血來換取惡意之焰，而不會在資源上落後。

Orcish Bowmasters is another card that is incredibly strong alongside Chthonian Nightmare. Orcish Bowmasters is naturally an elite card. In this deck, it’s even better, since the Orc Army token you create can be sacrificed to Chthonian Nightmare with ease. You can’t sacrifice the token to Flare of Malice of course, but you can always ditch Orcish Bowmasters in a pinch.

獸人弓箭手是另一張與地獄夢魘並駕齊驅的卡片。獸人弓箭手自然是一張精英卡。在這套牌中，它甚至更好，因為你創建的獸人軍隊令牌可以輕鬆地犧牲給地獄夢魘。當然，你不能將令牌犧牲給惡意耀斑，但你總是可以在緊要關頭拋棄獸人弓箭手。

To help enable Chthonian Nightmare and Unearth, cards like Stitcher’s Supplier and Voldaren Epicure can fuel your graveyard. If you’re lucky, you can mill over Lightning Skelemental with Stitcher’s Supplier, then bring it back with Chthonian Nightmare turn two. Chthonian Nightmare is a very scary card.

為了幫助啟用地獄噩夢和發掘，像縫合者的供應商和沃達倫美食家這樣的卡牌可以為你的墳場提供燃料。如果你幸運的話，你可以用縫合者的供應商碾壓閃電骷髏，然後在第二回合用地獄噩夢將其帶回來。地獄惡夢是一張非常可怕的牌。

What’s nice about this strategy overall is that you get to utilize some very well-positioned cards. Unsurprisingly, looping Lightning Skelemental with Chthonian Nightmare against combo decks can help run them out of resources. At the same time, the presence of Flare of Malice allows you to tap out and advance your board willingly, while still being able to kill Nadu, Winged Wisdom or Ral, Monsoon Mage when necessary.

整體來說，這個策略的優點在於你可以利用一些位置非常好的牌。不出所料，循環使用閃電骷髏和地獄噩夢對抗組合套牌可以幫助他們耗盡資源。同時，惡意耀斑的存在可以讓你自願地出擊並推進你的棋盤，同時在必要時仍然能夠殺死翼智慧納德或季風法師拉爾。

Then, out of the sideboard, Rakdos Charm is a house against a multitude of top-tier combo decks. It can kill a Nadu player out of nowhere as they flood the board with tokens from Springheart Nantuko. It can exile a Living End player’s graveyard at Instant speed. You can even use it to blow up problematic artifacts like Ruby Medallion or Shuko.

然後，在備牌之外，拉鐸司魅力是對抗眾多頂級組合套牌的房子。當 Nadu 玩家用 Springheart Nantuko 的代幣淹沒棋盤時，它可以突然殺死他們。它可以以瞬間速度放逐生境末地玩家的墳場。您甚至可以用它來炸毀有問題的文物，例如紅寶石獎章或 Shuko。

The biggest downside to this style of deck is that you’re pretty vulnerable to graveyard hate. There are limited ways

這種風格套牌的最大缺點是你很容易受到墓地仇恨的影響。方法有限
