Going to list a bunch of cards you probably don't want in your deck for fun

Shalai, Voice of Plenty, decent protection and mana sink

Gwenna, Eyes of Gaea, you only have like 3-4 hits for the untap so meh

Akroma's Will killer card, and it's instant speed

The Weatherseed Treaty is... cute? one less land than kodama's reach, but it then makes a token, then it gives a creature like +2/+2... Ok not amazing, but it does give trample too?

Congregation at Dawn cute tutor

Angel of Grace is a lot of mana to hold up when your opponent will likely just combo for an alt win con but it's also based

Rosie Cotton of South Lane doesn't do a ton for you but it's cute. And it combos with Herd Baloth or Scurry Oak if you're into that.

Farmer Cotton not flash unfortunately, but it is an X token creator and it makes food too which is cute?

The Battle of Bywater is also cute, although you don't care about food, and your alternatives give you other benefit like having a side castable in the graveyard

Broodhatch Nantuko cute blocker, otherwise trash. Same with similar card Druid's Call

Mosswort Bridge feels decent when you know for sure your commander has that 10 power condition satisfied.

Traverse the Outlands based card, can be sad when your big creature is removed in response, but it's based so...

Strionic Resonator is honestly decent, you have a decent number of triggered abilities. I guess Lithoform Engine is also valid there

I’ve really liked Gwenna, Eyes of Gaea - I’m thinking something with Wayward Swordtooth is viable instead of Dryad of the Ilysian Grove, although I personally like the additional win condition. I’ve not really come up with a way to spam permanents early to make it viable, but I could definitely see it as an alternate value engine.

There’s not many times I’ve been disappointed by Gwenna, Eyes of Gaea aside from topdecking, since it really allows some explosive plays, untapping after each titan and even manafixing through Blood Moon.

Needing to wait a turn for relevance is the card’s only real downside, so I am only running one copy since I don’t want too many irrelevant draws.

Gwenna, Eyes of Gaea and Runadi, Behemoth Caller might be good

So, after many more enjoyable plastests, I can say that the defensive variant will become my definite Ur-Dragon deck irl. It still somewhat lacks protection because I don't feel like spending about 100 € on a few MtG cards right now, but it feels already way more balanced. Ruinous Ultimatum has proven playable after all. Aside from that, the new Gwenna, Eyes of Gaea has shown itself to be very useful. Also I can recommend using at least some triomes, since there are many situations where you don't need the fetched land immediately but profit from the additional colour fix.
