They say hell hath no fury like Kolaghan's Storm

Commander / EDH Aggro BR (Rakdos) Combo Dragons

Ok, here we go my favorite dragon. This deck plays a lot like a Rakdos midrange deck. You spend much of the early game answering other decks by wiping the board, destroying land, and setting up your combo. After the pieces have been acquired you attempt to storm out for at least 4 dragons but getting more isn't that hard. With the 4 rituals Bubbling Muck and Rain of Filth(why rain you ask? Because you play to win the game) + all the copy target instant and sorcery cards getting up wards of 10 dragons is well within this decks means. Patriarch's Bidding is a good way to win as well; aside from being a great way to recover from wrath. Dumping a hand of dragons to Malfegor, or overdrawing to discard them with Ad Nauseam,Null Profusion, or Greed. This tactic can be almost a secondary dragon storm but from the grave. Sometimes it is more prolific to just be an early aggressor with a dragon or two. Even while the early combat goes on it is easy to make reactive plays and perform storm at a later time. The only truly mean thing in the deck is the Maralen of the Mornsong + Stranglehold combo. I try not to play that way but in case I run into a pod that dose I will not be afraid. The worst matchup for this deck is control because of there ability to interrupt or tax you. Some super aggressive decks can be dangerous as well because of the amount of damage you do to your self but you can fight through it with the mid range style of play the deck usually produces. That being said the deck really likes to use it life as a disposable resource.Whip of Erebosis good to stem the bleeding but it is better to save as much life as possible until you go off. The combo play is not every thing(this is still a deck filled with big dragons after all) but it is important so Price of Glory and Boseiju, Who Shelters All are combo protection. The six non- dragon creatures in the deck are for dragon cost reduction and utility. This a bit of a different take on Kolaghan, the Storm's Fury but the flavor was just something I couldn't pass up.
