Hello! I am returning to Magic, and hopping into EDH for the first time. I purchased the premade commander Draconic Domination deck to start with because dragons... :) I have been editing it to make it stronger and more focused, and I think I've gotten it pretty streamlined for it's goal.

Commander: The Ur-Dragon.

Strategy: Play dragons that trigger other effects, which let you play more dragons. (Engine below)

Win Condition: Hit people in the face with dragons

Help needed:

  1. Basic EDH deck stuff that I missed because I'm new.
  2. I just edited it to have a really consistent early game vs really big late game engine. Seems to have worked well, but I imagine that it could be adjusted one way or the other for better results.
  3. How to deal with problems: Board-wipes are pretty easy to recover from just because once you get going with this deck, it just keeps going. Cyclonic Rift is a big problem though. I have Conqueror's Flail , Dragonlord Dromoka , Teferi's Protection , and Silumgar's Command for answers currently. Deterring early agro might be a small problem, but unsure at this point?

Being new to EDH I would welcome any suggestions that you can provide about almost anything, the one exception would be that I have no intention of spending $1000 on this deck. So please avoid suggesting things like buy a gaia's cradle. Thanks!

Engine Example:

Play: Dragonlord Kolaghan -> Trigger: Elemental Bond , Mirari's Wake , Lathliss, Dragon Queen and Dragon Tempest -> Draw: Thundermaw Hellkite -> Play: Thundermaw Hellkite using mana from Mirari's Wake -> swing with dragons.

Cards I'm thinking might be helpful, but unsure: Basically everything on the maybe list goes in and out... Though the sideboard is currently the short list of cards that I've been experimenting with.
