Stardragon I'd like to start this comment by saying that your art selections are excellent, and thank you for providing the sources. You matched art to card beautifully.

Every green flyer printed these days either has a secondary color or is part of a five-card cycle. The ancient dragons and kirin are both mono-color cycles, and Giant Dustwasp is from a set where the color pie was specifically being messed with. Cards from Planar Chaos can't really be used as color precedence. And yeah, WotC has made off-color cards, but those are widely considered either mistakes or one-offs.

I brought up Miirym to suggest that Drakes can be made more distinct from Dragons, but I didn't really make that clear. There's a little more depth in {W} than {G} for Drakes, and Gruul/Temur Dragons is a much deeper archetype than Boros/Jeskai Dragons. Expanding Drakes into {W} will allow them a distinct identity, other than "Dragons but smaller."

Are you intending all of these cards specifically for Commander, and even more specifically for a Kazirak commander deck? If so, are you intending an approximately balanced color distribution, or would one color be more heavily weighted? If this is all specifically for Kazirak, then your approach makes sense for that context.

legendofa Frist Ik drakes are Blue centered deck I've made a Drake mono blue tribe commander.

Second i didn't want Kazirak to be white I wanted one of my favorite tribes to in one of my favorite colors, and green has plenty of big flyers Ancient Bronze Dragon, Bounteous Kirin, Giant Dustwasp ect so Parardise Drake really isn't out of color, true it rare for green to bigger flyings but i would go as far as as that, and even if it was off color who care? Wizards have made plenty of off color cards over the years.

Talking about Miirym, Sentinel Wyrm why? One Miirym is a copy commander and it's a dragon creature not a drake, Kazirak isn't even close to Miirym in abilities either so again why bring her up? Because she's a big Temur flying like Kazirak?

Only two cards are triple red in a commander deck of 100 i don't see a problem with it and if your going to be using Kazirak your going to splashing in red and green anyways so no it won't be hard to splash red and green in a deck thats made to have red and green in it. And red and green combination drake same as the mono red argument in's going into Temur deck so you'll have no problem splashing the colors in.

Some stuff you could consider

Uktabi Drake: Aggro

Ifh-Bff Efreet: Against green this is suicide, but against everyone else this is a 3/3 flying for 4

Giant Dustwasp: Great draw in an opening hand. Not so great later.

Scryb Sprites: I mean... it's as effecient as flyers get for green.

Skinshifter: Does this count?

Faerie Noble: lol you ready for that green faerie tribal?
