Possibly a Dragonstorm in the Weather Lookout

Modern Combo Tempo UR (Izzet)

Dorotheus


Sideboard


A DOWNPOUR.

The deck is very simple and mostly linear idea. Other creative liberties can be taken, but the goal here is to Dragonstorm for AT LEAST 3, and max of 5. We want consistency, difficulty in breaking up that consistency, and to kill someone with Dragons.

THE KILL
The actual set up here is to get Possibility Storm out, then cast the NEW adventure side of Merfolk Secretkeeper , Venture Deeper either by drawing it, digging for it, or Transmuting it with Dizzy Spell . This will trigger P.Storm to search for a Dragonstorm and will ALWAYS at least get 2 storm triggers, because of the nature of the card. As long as the card you're looking for is a Sorcery it can be literally anything we prefer Red normally but Embereth Shieldbreaker needs a target and that makes it unreliable until sideboard if you're worried about Grafdigger's Cage . I recommend Flame Jab sideboard since if it gets Thoughtseize d if you keep a greedy hand you can recast it for discarding a land. When you finally unleash the beasts make sure you always get Dragonlord Dromoka first to make sure you can finish without your opponent interrupting you. Overall this is still a Storm deck. What I end up usually doing is turn 4, Desperate Ritual with another one spliced on it for 6 red mana, then cast with one left for the 'Sorcery' to get Dragonstorm .

The reason we use Possibility Storm instead of just ramping to Dragonstorm itself is because it protects us from interaction, and is cheaper to cast in the long run, sure you have to get the pieces, but with all the cards in the deck that dig, and that are instant speed, it's really not been an issue yet.

I'm always surprised at the efficiency and resilience of the deck, even though it's all intended.
