MTG Salvation

I have been poking around at dega/mardu builds and found an interesting madness gimmick with Squee, Goblin Nabob and some enchantments for discarding to get creature tokens. Looks cute but it has made me wonder about the viability of using 4 Squee, Goblin Nabob in combination with Faithless Looting, Tormenting Voice, and Cathartic Reunion.


Could this give red sufficient card advantage to stay in the game for longer drawn out matches?
Is this viable in a competitive space?
What weaknesses do we have to look out for?
What decks might this power?

Also cute is +1 ing Lili and tossing your Squee or tossing your squee when opponent does.

Also again, this is my first time posting after lurking for years. Did i break any rules?

I like this idea. If only Squee were an actual threat when on the board, then it would probably be just competitive enough.

These are probably the best cards for raw red card adv:
Chandra, torch of defiance, Chandra, Pyromaster, abbot of keral keep, Outpost siege, Act on Impulse, bedlam reveler

squee, goblin nabobs card draw hayday was in vintage with careful study and bazaar of baghdad. however back then we ran zombie infestation which doubled him as a kill condition.

use to power survival of the fittest, but in modern if one wanted to, you can use him to power chandra ablaze

a good draw engine in red that people tend to forget about is browbeat people will usually take the 5 to the face but since i dont really know your deck idk if it synergise well with the rest....

One of my favorite abusable red draw engines is Humble Defector. Oh, the things u can do with this guy if opponent decides he's harmless enough to let you untap with...

1. The old tap-and-sac. Tap, sac to Viscera Seer, scry and then draw 2. Style points if you sac to a Falkenrath for the +1/+1 and swing for 5.
2. In RWx Kiki, tap this guy and with the ability on the stack, Resto Angel him.
3. Also in RWx Kiki, Village Bellringer lets you draw 4 before handing him over.
4. In mono red, tap and Fling with ability on the stack.
