Stripping cards directly from opponent hands starting on turn two while building recursive graveyard pressure creates a punishing resource-denial game state. On Moxfield’s competitive and high-power Rakdos charts, Kroxa, Titan of Death’s Hunger from Theros Beyond Death stands as an iconic 6/6 Elder Giant that merges early hand control with deterministic infinite ETB win conditions.
As a 6/6 Elder Giant legend costing two mana (), Kroxa is sacrificed upon entering the battlefield unless cast via its Escape cost ( and exiling 5 cards). Whenever Kroxa enters or attacks, each opponent discards a card, losing 3 life if they didn’t discard a nonland card. Paired with reanimation engines like Animate Dead and the infinite ETB loop of Worldgorger Dragon, Kroxa triggers infinitely to strip all opposing hands and drain the entire pod to zero in a single turn.
Here is the strategic operational blueprint of Moxfield’s premier Kroxa list, detailing how to enforce hand discard, leverage graveyard Escape, and close out games via reanimation loops.
1. Core Mechanics & Strategic Phases
Succeeding with Kroxa requires fast Rakdos mana acceleration, early discard/entomb setup, graveyard fuel, and efficient reanimation loops.
-
Early Game (Turns 1–2): Ramp fast with Sol Ring and Dark Ritual. Cast Kroxa on turn 2 to force immediate table-wide discard while feeding your graveyard.
-
Mid Game (Turns 3–4): Entomb combo pieces like Worldgorger Dragon or fill the graveyard via Dragon’s Rage Channeler to fuel Kroxa’s Escape cost. Control the board using targeted Rakdos removal.
-
Late Game (Turns 4+): Reanimate Worldgorger Dragon using Animate Dead or Dance of the Dead to generate infinite mana and infinite Kroxa ETB triggers, draining all opponents completely.
2. Moxfield Highlights: Graveyard Loops & Discard Engines
The highest-rated community lists on Moxfield optimize Kroxa by combining early hand disruption with instant-win reanimation lines.
Worldgorger Dragon / Animate Dead
Infinite mana and ETB combo. Entombing Worldgorger Dragon and reanimating it creates a loop that repeatedly blinks all your permanents (including Kroxa and lands) for infinite mana and infinite Kroxa discard/drain triggers.
Waste Not / Tinybones, Trinket Thief
Discard payoffs. Converts opponent discards forced by Kroxa into extra mana, card draw, and creature tokens to build massive value advantage.
Entomb / Buried Alive
Graveyard precision tutors. Positions Kroxa, Worldgorger Dragon, or secondary combo pieces straight into the graveyard for immediate reanimation.
Deflecting Swat / Red Elemental Blast
Instant-speed Rakdos protection. Defends your reanimation spells and protects Kroxa from graveyard hate or countermagic during combo turns.
