Board the Rollercrusher
The Rollercrusher Ride is a compact but potent mythic enchantment that fits neatly into red delirium builds and sacrifice packets. With a casting cost of {X}{2}{R} the card lets you convert excess mana into a sweeping board wipe that scales with the investment. When the Ride enters the battlefield it deals X damage to each of up to X target creatures, which makes it efficient at clearing bodies while still leaving room for precision targeting and follow up plays.
Delirium adds a second axis to the card by punishing opponents and rewarding graveyard diversity. If you already have four or more card types among cards in your graveyard then noncombat damage you deal is doubled, which interacts cleanly with burn spells and creature triggers. The Rollercrusher Ride reads like a toolbox piece; it encourages setting up your graveyard and managing your X value for tempo. Add it to a red midrange or graveyard synergies deck and play it when you can maximize both the initial board impact and the delirium bonus. Pick one up and test the lines of play; it often forces unfavorable blocks for your opponent.
