Crackling Drake
Creature — Drake
Flying
Crackling Drake's power is equal to the total number of instant and sorcery cards you own in exile and in your graveyard.
When Crackling Drake enters the battlefield, draw a card.

Ooh, that’s a nice one Bookrook. Every once in awhile one slips past me, somehow I missed Crackling Drake. I’m maybe-boarding it as we speak, thanks!

MagicSteve6 Thanks for checking them out! I don't have a developed list for higher budgets for this deck, but it can be broken down into expendable creatures with power 2 or greater (including tokens), controlling instants and sorceries, and creatures that enjoy lots of instants and sorceries. Any of these areas can be pumped as needed. Looking at specific cards for this deck, Moan of the Unhallowed can create up to eight tokens between casualty and flashback, and Talrand's Invocation can create a bunch of flying tokens. There are some options for better attackers, like Spellheart Chimera and Crackling Drake. And, of course, there are many options for the control spells, from Mana Leak to Drag to the Bottom to anything else. I hope this gives you some ideas, and helps you make it your own!
Stardragon on Drake Support (Reworked)

Yes these were made with commander in mind I don't play any other format (other than commander spin offs like oathbreaker or two-headed giant). And yes all these cards would made for a Kazirak precon with blue as the core with red and green splashed in. At this point drakes are mono blue you could stretch it to izzet with Crackling Drake and Enigma Drake (my favorite drake art) which to be honest made drakes izzet by themselves Crackling more so than Enigma.
-
Two things here I don't play white very much (other than in my one Naya deck and my mardu vampire deck) so other than treasure, life gain and exile I don't know what to do with white.
But your right I would love to have drakes be more than just mini dragons. But they don't have a identity to latch on to other than instant and sorcereies which are a dime a dozen and I want more than that for drakes.
- I choose temur because it's one of favorite schemes (Jund being the other), Grixis I felt was the wrong color for drakes and Jeskai I felt would just shove them down the instant and sorcery path even more (Prowess if expanding on the idea) plus again little experience with white.
But temur I felt had best the window for them to spread their wings (pun absolutely intended) while still keeping the izzet main core (if I'm being completly honest i truly think Bant is right colors for drakes and a unique tribe for bant since bant angels and knights never came to be, but there nothing to go on for that and again white.) and gain an identity of thier own because temur is such a flexible color scheme for the pie

Spellslinger Deck

Step 1 was strategy. Step 2 is wincon. If we're going for Niv/Curiosity combo as a main win, with a self-mill backup, we want as many cards to enable those as possible. Is there any other way to duplicate these effects in your deck in case your opponents blow one up? For Curiosity effects, I would add in Tandem Lookout. Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind is just like your commander's ability. They are the only two with that draw effect, but Brallin, Skyshark Rider Flip (not a flip card, by the way) and Glint-Horn Buccaneer can pair with any Curiosity effect during your discard phase, if you have more than 7 cards in hand, to do what Niv does (though this makes cards that give you no maximum hand size, like Spellbook and Wizard Class bad, if you want to use these as backups...not saying you have to, just an idea). Finally Laboratory Maniac is another Jace. Reminder that if your deck is going to rely on a combo wincon, you are announcing the deck's weak point from the start. So the deck needs to focus a lot of energy on defending that weak point.
A few other cards I'm going to single out: Crackling Drake, Convolute, Inescapable Blaze, Smelt, Capture Sphere, Enthralling Hold, Fissure Vent - see if you can figure out why I may be picking on these.

Few things to look at:
-Thermo-Alchemist is worth dropping, doesn't actually benefit from Veyran. Consider adding Kessig Flamebreather in its place.
-You have a lot of effects that double spells (Dualcaster Mage, Naru Meha, Master Wizard, Rootha, Mercurial Artist). It is worth considering that copying a spell is not technically casting it so you don't benefit from effects like Guttersnipe off a copied spell.
-Archmage Emeritus. Enough said.
-Lier, Disciple of the Drowned is pretty solid
-You have a lot of expensive/delve spells that might end up being slower or more damaging than expected. Exiling your spells from the yard invalidates cards like Past in Flames and Crackling Drake, which is counterintuitive. Cards like Apex of Power, Clone Legion, and Spelltwine are fun, but better served in a Mizzix of the Izmagnus deck (another card worth considering!)
-Theres a lot of solid enchantments/artifacts that benefit from Veyran. Metallurgic Summonings, Aetherflux Reservoir, Aria of Flame, Sorcerer Class, etc.

Hello. I'm Considering ways to fill your graveyard up faster since you run Enigma Drake and Crackling Drake.
Instead of Opt replace with Consider
Instead of Divination consider Hieroglyphic Illumination
Instead of Chart a Course consider Curate
Unexplained Disappearance and Sweltering Suns are both interesting as well.
