Bloodbraid Elf
Creature — Elf Berserker
Haste
Cascade (When you cast this spell, exile cards from the top of your library until you exile a nonland card that costs less. You may cast it without paying its mana cost. Put the exiled cards on the bottom in a random order.)

Would Bloodbraid Elf have a place here as a top curve? Another hasty threat that, if it rolls into Samut, would give an instant 5 damage/draw 2. Lovely deck!

Boneyard Scourge has a triggered ability that puts it on the battlefield, that's not casting a spell.
Casting a spell means moving it to the stack, paying the casting cost in the process. Casting spells typically happens from your hand, but there's cards that allow you to cast spells from elsewhere. Cards with Flashback like Angelfire Ignition allow you to cast the spell again from graveyard for an alternative cost. Rivaz of the Claw allows you to do that with any dragon spell, but only once per turn. Spells with Cascade (Bloodbraid Elf ) allow you to cast a spell from exile from the top of your library for free. What these cards all have in common, is their reminder text (italic, in brackets) literally mentions "You may cast". If it says "Return to battlefield" or "Put onto the battlefield" then it's an ability or an effect from another source, but you didn't cast the creature.
Casting Reanimate on a dragon in your graveyard is not casting the dragon. Ebondeath, Dracolich can be cast from your graveyard whenever any other creature died this turn. If you do that with Rivaz in play, thàt one will get exiled if it would die again.
Hope that helps '^^

Probably more worth it to play Atarka's Command over Dromoka's Command. Same cost, but Atarka’s is far more aggressive (3 to face plus +1/+1 to board), and can confirm I’ve died to it from my buddy’s Gruul aggro deck a lot.
Also 23 lands seems a little high for a list that tops out at 3cmc, probably fit a couple Lightning Bolts or Bloodbraid Elfs and go down to 21.

Hey there,
Pretty much whats on the tittle. Let's say that I attack with Yidris and copy the trigger with Lithoform Engine. Does that mean that my spells will cascade twicer?
Also, another situation, can I copy the cascade trigger from Bloodbraid Elf ? So I'll have to exile cards from the top of your library until you exile a nonland card that costs less than the Elf and than Again right?

Urza's Saga and maybe some cascade cards could help you find your combo pieces easier. For example, Bloodbraid Elf seems like a decent "finisher" choice over your dragon, since it can find pretty much any card in the deck (furthering your strategy), while also adding a clock.

I'll be honest, I don't love this deck, not as built. I get that a version of it may have done well in Standard, but I think that it would prove much too slow in the current Modern meta. I think the concept is solid enough, but I think you'd have to swap out the majority of the cards to accomplish it. Maybe consider going with a Cascade-based approach (see Bloodbraid Elf) and/or using Collected Company, depending on how you build the deck. There are tons of 3 cmc creatures out there in red and green that are plenty effective and can hit the board for you by turn 2 with ramp, catch a CoCo or cascade with a Bloodbraid.
Having said that all that, within your current framework, I'd consider Ignoble Hierarch over Birds of Paradise. Not saying that it's automatically better, but I'd definitely consider it.
For card advantage I can't tell you how much I love Augur of Autumn and Werewolf Pack Leader. Bonecrusher Giant is just a great card that could work well for you.
There's a lot of other possibilities with a Gruul deck like this, but it would take some discussion to make sure they're within the framework of what you want to do.

Actually!! :O
Sheogorath and Jyggalag could be MDFC!! That'd actually make a ton of sense!
I was planning on Sheogorath being Izzet and Jyggalag being colorless, anyway.
Honestly what could be done is also the following: What if the Daedric Prince was their own card, and the Shrine was an MDFC with the Artifact on the reverse?
Come to think of it, ooo...
Okay okay hear me out
Each of the 17 Daedric Princes are MDFC
Front is their Demon God side
Reverse is a legendary land for their plane in Oblivion. So for example, Molag Bal's reverse is the legendary land of Cold Harbor, and Mehrunes Dagon's is Deadlands.
Then, you have the Shrine. The front is the Shrine itself. For example, Shrine to Hircine and Shrine to Azura.
The reverse is their respective legendary artifacts. For example, Cuirass of Savior's Hide or Star of Azura. Respectively, of course.
OH GOD HOW WOULD SOUL TRAP WORK??
Soul Gem
Token Artifact
Soil Gem enters the battlefield tapped unless a nontoken creature died this turn.
When Soul Gem enters the battlefield, sacrifice it unless you exile a creature card from target players graveyard.
, , sacrifice Soul Gem: Add mana in any combination of colors equal to the type and number of colored mana pips of the creature card exiled with this artifact.
So you exiled a Bloodbraid Elf? You get to add your choice of , or !! :D
HOLY SHIT
What if, hear me out, Sheogorath was the Demon God on his front, but the REVERSE WAS NOT ONE BUT TWO LANDS???
Okay okay okay follow me on this
Just like the old school flip cards
Top half is
- The Shivering Isles: Mania
And the bottom half is
- The Shivering Isles: Dementia
And whenever you use one side, at the beginning of your end step, it flips to the other side. Or you flip a coin at the beginning of your upkeep when you untap it to see what side it becomes
Ooooo that's nasty
