一些万智牌在线套牌列表终于再次向公众开放，让我们能够更好地感受可能发生的任何元游戏变化。现在，我们还可以看到玩家对各种格式提出的任何独特和创新的方法。事实证明，一个非常酷的拉铎司外壳滥用了地狱噩梦的力量，最近刚刚进入万智牌在线现代挑战赛的前 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.

这套牌有很多事情要做。可以产生的价值是巨大的。同时，这套牌可以进行抽牌，可以帮助您在短时间内结束游戏。这套牌的强大性能是不可否认的，看起来我们终于为闪电骷髅找到了一个坚实的家。

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.

赋予这副套牌如此强大的磨砺能力的主要引擎正是地狱梦魇。只要你周围有牺牲饲料，地狱噩梦就可以反复将小生物从你的坟墓场带回来玩耍。嗯，与地狱噩梦搭配的更具破坏性的卡牌之一无疑是闪电骷髅。

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.

闪电骷髅有可能突然对对手造成六点伤害，并迫使对手在此过程中弃掉两张牌。这无疑是一个强大的效果，但迄今为止在《摩登》中从未完全达到预期。不幸的是，闪电骷髅始终有一些重大弱点。

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 的第一个问题是它不会长期增加任何董事会存在。支付三点法力来发动一次大攻击并让对手头脑腐烂听起来不错，但如果你完全处于不利地位，闪电骷髅在防守上没有任何帮助。其次，作为一种单韧性生物，闪电骷髅会死于大量有效的移除法术。这可能会让战斗中的连接变得困难。幸运的是，这两个问题都在这个 shell 中得到了成功的解决。

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.

当谈到董事会存在时，将闪电骷髅与恶意耀斑配对是一个巨大的福音。这意味着，如果你的对手选择承受闪电骷髅的全力攻击来尝试攻击反击，你可以将其牺牲给耀斑，以在战斗后免费杀死对手干草人。

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，地狱噩梦可以帮助你一遍又一遍地重现闪电骷髅。最终，六次伤害攻击将会加起来。如果对手要移除闪电骷髅，你可以随时将其牺牲给恶意耀斑或村庄仪式来获得一些价值。这套牌具有很强的协同作用，而我们才刚刚开始。

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，除了闪电骷髅之外，还有其他卡牌可以与地狱噩梦和恶意耀斑配合使用。到目前为止，与这些卡牌搭配的最佳生物是血鬼。嗜血并不是世界上最具威胁的牌，但它毫不费力地从坟墓场回来的事实使它成为这里的完美包容者。

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.

通过地狱噩梦，血噬确保你随时都有可供牺牲的生物。作为一个递归体，你可以牺牲嗜血来换取恶意之焰，而不会在资源上落后。

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.

兽人弓箭手是另一张与地狱梦魇并驾齐驱的卡牌。兽人弓箭手自然是一张精英卡。在这套牌中，它甚至更好，因为你创建的兽人军队令牌可以轻松地牺牲给地狱梦魇。当然，你不能将令牌牺牲给恶意耀斑，但你总是可以在紧要关头抛弃兽人弓箭手。

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.

为了帮助启用地狱噩梦和发掘，像缝合者的供应商和沃达伦美食家这样的卡牌可以为你的坟墓场提供燃料。如果你幸运的话，你可以用缝合者的供应商碾压闪电骷髅，然后在第二回合用地狱噩梦将其带回来。地狱噩梦是一张非常可怕的牌。

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.

总体来说，这个策略的优点在于你可以利用一些位置非常好的牌。不出所料，循环使用闪电骷髅和地狱噩梦对抗组合套牌可以帮助他们耗尽资源。同时，恶意耀斑的存在可以让你自愿地出击并推进你的棋盘，同时在必要时仍然能够杀死翼智慧纳德或季风法师拉尔。

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.

然后，在备牌之外，拉铎司魅力是对抗众多顶级组合套牌的房屋。当 Nadu 玩家用 Springheart Nantuko 的代币淹没棋盘时，它可以突然杀死他们。它可以以瞬间速度放逐生灵尽头玩家的坟墓场。您甚至可以用它来炸毁有问题的文物，例如红宝石奖章或 Shuko。

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

这种风格套牌的最大缺点是你很容易受到墓地仇恨的影响。方法有限
