They say you become a good player once you're willing to make sacrifices, such as life for mana fix (painlands). That being said, this card still isn't worth it.
Awesome art, though.

Should have been printed as "whenever Rakdos attacks, sacrifice a nondemon permanent you control"

Lightning greaves helps this guy big time. Add the fact both Dark ritual and Seething song can get him out faster and this guy becomes just ugly. Even if you have to lose everything but him, get him out before a wrath and the games yours.

Actually ToidiDiPuts you'd only sacrifice 3/4ths of your non-Demon permanents if you attacked with 2 of these with Mirror Gallery in play. Each trigger would go on the stack independently and resolve one at a time. The first one takes out 1/2 of your non-demon permanents and the 2nd one takes out half of the ones that are left over so you could theoretically have enough permanents to keep mirror gallery in play so they wouldn't die to the legends rule. Or you could also March of the Machines + Conspiracy to ensure you never have to sac the Gallery to Rakdos.

Personally, I use him as an early beatstick in reanimator. Against anything but white it's quite hard for you opponent to respond to him if you get him out early enough.

Hey with the right set up, your opponent will be lucky if he can do anything once ol' Rakdos hits the party. And I agree Malfegor is better, especially for Hellbent. (Think they mixed these guys up?) But why not play both? You CAN have one of each of them in play.

Well, with Conspiracy, two copies of Opalescence, and an Enchanted Evening, you should be able to use this guy without sacrificing anything... or you could just play something more useful Xathrid Demon.
Edit: whoops, forgot you'd also need a Glorious Anthem to keep your lands from dying.
