This deck plays to Dragonlord Atarka 's strength, which is board control. The ramp aims for a turn 4~5 Atarka. Several pieces of the deck are to make Atarka as satisfying and destructive to drop as possible. Thorn Mammoth , Gruul Ragebeast , Warstorm Surge , Frontier Siege , and Nightshade Peddler , or any combination of the above, all make Atarka's entrance cataclysmic. This deck is a more controlling approach to RG, with plenty of sorceries and blowing up of permanents, while Atarka herself acts as repeatable removal and a three turn clock.

The most common way this deck wins is taking out one player through Atarka's commander damage alone, bringing down another with the few other fatties in the deck and X burn spells, while throwing a third player back in time by messing with their mana rocks and lands.
