Firebreathing Kobold (Uncommons)

Commander / EDH Mono-Red

Try to end with commander kobold! In multiplayer, lizard will allow for damage spreading. This is part of a series I have been doing where I limit my card choices only to common and uncommon cards. This is a fun design challenge and helps keep the budget low.

Mono-red is one of the more difficult colors for me to design decks around, in my opinion.

Instead of drawing cards, it feels like looting is the only option. This can be done with cards like Faithless Looting.

Because there is not much card draw, my hand will quickly be spent and I expect to have leftover mana. To make use of this mana, I want to use firebreathing effects. My personal favorite is Shiv's Embrace, a fun parallel between Shivan Dragon, Serra's Embrace, and Serra Angel. If I get too much firebreathing, I plan on discarding them via looting to draw better cards.

In addition to the firebreathing, the deck is full of auras and equipment designed to make Rograkh more deadly. Whether that be in terms of raw power with Claws of Valakut, or evasion with something like Executioner's Hood.

Like any fun deck, this deck has weaknesses. Rograkh is pretty fragile, both in terms of strength in combat and lack of protection/shroud. A simple Pacifism enchanted on Rograkh almost completely wipes this deck out.

In summary, this is a nice casual deck designed around maximum aggression, hitting enemies quickly and getting an early advantage. With the right cards, maybe even victory!
