Forgestoker Dragon

Creature — Dragon

Flying

: Forgestoker Dragon deals 1 damage to target creature. That creature can't block this combat. Activate this ability only if Forgestoker Dragon is attacking.

Hi! Thanks for your advices! I'm actually thinking about yours propositions of cards. Actually I bought: Burnished Hart -> Gadrak, the Crown-Scourge - I don't like Gadrak, really, it was bad choice Hellkite Courser -> Forgestoker Dragon - I don't need that card, cause my creatures have flying and they are so strong Path of Ancestry -> I don't know, probably for mountain I have too: Terminate Torrent of Souls - it's better Bond of Revival for me. I'm slowly buying new, more expensive cards. They are in my maybeboard. Discarding a cards is very important mechanic in my deck, but I want to have mana to casting my creatures from hand too. I think about cards like a Glint-Horn Buccaneer (I have) too, but making my deck with discarding mechanic means rebuilding all deck.

few thoughts:

Path of Ancestry will fit really well with this deck. highly recommend finding a spot for it. personally, not a big fan of Forgestoker Dragon in this deck, the rest of what you have looks great, though.

seeing as you already have the etb idea with Conjurer's Closet, why not Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker? could also get away with some combat triggers. get's in the way of all your board wipes though.

also, not a fan of Chandra, the Firebrand. but that's just me

I like this deck a lot. I found a Lathliss, Dragon Queen in the most recent pack I opened, and it made me want to make a Commander deck out of it. I mostly play 60 card Casual, though, and this looks a lot like the deck I had in mind, translated to Casual. You seem to have covered the bases well.

As to suggestions, check out my Ruric Thar, May I? deck. It operates on a nearly all creature basis, but it's Green-Red like this one and runs Forgestoker Dragon, which would fit well here. Inferno Titan is a major player too. They combo soooo well with Nightshade Peddler to clear a path to victory or just remove the creatures that are hurting you. Ogre Battledriver can help with Haste. Orcish Lumberjack is awesome ramp, though you'd want to shift to a few more Forests if you run that.

Looking at this one again lately for possible upgrades. I'm considering the following changes.

Out:
1x Wickerbough Elder
1x Embermaw Hellion
2x Fanatic of Xenagos
Two additional cards from the following list:

  • Forgestoker Dragon (keeping at least one)
  • Inferno Titan (keeping at least one)
  • Deadly Recluse
  • Tangle Angler
  • In:
    3x Orcish Lumberjack
    3x Fierce Empath

    The point of the changes is to get the most important elements of the deck out more quickly and reliably.

    Lands: Take out 2 Mountains, Stone Quarry, Cinder Barrens, and Forsaken Sanctuary and maybe the Guildgates if you want and add in at least one plains, Haven of the Spirit Dragon, any of the life gain dual lands from Tarkir... just use better duals than the strictly-worse guildgates. I have a personal issue with those lands. They insulted "Avatar the Last Airbender" once.

    Creatures:

    Things to pull: Ancient Hellkite works to slow, requires to much investment, and is too conditional. Forgestoker Dragon cuz it's clunky and slow compared to other things. (A lot of these suggestions will be cutting the worst of duplicate effects). Aegis Angel (above reason)? Wojek Embermage? Paragon of Open Graves cuz you don't have enough black to make its ability work. Scalding Salamander is too conditional. Either Vulshok Sorcerer or Blood Cultist. Crossbow Infantry. Stun Sniper. Painsmith because not enough artifacts.

    Artifacts: That Which Was Taken cuz it's also too slow.

    RubyStrings Thank you for all these suggestions! Oracle of Mul Daya is definitely better, but my budget is running low and I want to try and keep the deck as tribal as possible.

    I will look at taking out Crucible of Fire for Quicksilver Amulet and Broodmate Dragon for Scalelord Reckoner. they shouldn't affect too much except adding some more white, which I think my current mana base can handle. Would Consign to Dust and/or Primeval Light suffice for enchantment/artifact hate? I know one is slow, but I would love you thoughts on these.

    Currently, I see Indestructible as a big possible threat, mostly Blightsteel Colossus so Utter End and Anguished Unmaking are great suggestions!

    I feel like Steel Hellkite Siege Dragon Forgestoker Dragon Ryusei, the Falling Star Scourge of Valkas Deathbringer Regent Silumgar, the Drifting Death and Dragon Tempest give me a lot of pseudo wipes. I was looking to Merciless Eviction at some point because Indestructable is always a problem.

    With all the ramp I have, Dragonstorm has been a game ender with Dragon Tempest and/or Ramos, Dragon Engine. I usually grab Scourge of Valkas, Broodmate Dragon, and whoever else I need for the situation. Usually it storms 3 times.

    I would love a Bloodstained Mire, Wooded Foothills and Verdant Catacombs. Right now I'm running Rocky Tar Pit, Mountain Valley, and Bad River for budget reasons. I also want to put it a Cavern of Souls for Ancient Ziggurat

    Into the Wilds really ramps! That is awesome, thank you for telling me!

    You definitely seem more experienced then me so I hope keep bouncing ideas back and forth. This is SUPER helpful!

    I really need to add the Fierce Empaths here. This deck is all about getting Ruric Thar, the Unbowed onto the field as soon as possible and doing nice effects through creatures alone. While, as of this posting, Fierce Empath can find me only 7 cards (2x Forgestoker Dragon, 2x Inferno Titan, and 3x Ruric Thar, the Unbowed), these represent half of the current set of beaters in the deck and generally are the cards I most want to make sure I find. Just getting Ruric Thar, the Unbowed out ASAP is already worth the inclusion of Fierce Empath. Another advantage I see in doing this is that it would possibly allow me to move 1 each of Forgestoker Dragon and Inferno Titan to the sideboard, dropping the mana curve a bit, though that may be a bad idea.

    The deck could use help to more quickly find the creatures and land it needs, and it could use improved ramp to be able to do more than one big thing at a time.

    Maybe Frontier Siege for improved ramp? Maybe Outpost Siege for draw? Neither is a creature, though.

    Now, how to make room?

  • Remove Embermaw Hellion? It's nice, but it may be sort of an unnecessary damage-more card in this line-up.
  • Wickerbough Elder is my only artifact or enchantment removal, but it's just 1 card of 60, and therefore unlikely to show up in a given game anyway, so it's a candidate for deletion, probably.
  • Dense Foliage stays for sure. That thing's been incredible. Worth a 6 point hit, even, it it comes to it. I'd include 1 more if I owned another.
  • What else?
  • Thoughts?
