Themberchaud

Legendary Creature — Dragon

Trample

When Themberchaud enters the battlefield, he deals X damage to each other creature without flying and each player, where X is the number of Mountains you control.

You may exert Themberchaud as he attacks. When you do, he gains flying until end of turn. (An exerted creature won't untap during your next untap step.)

More dragons (I got distracted and couldn't stop thinking about it):

• Akoum Hellkite: free bolts every turn

• Themberchaud: board wipe on a stick

• Cavern-Hoard Dragon: hard counters that pesky artifact player

• Atsushi, the Blazing Sky: great value for 4 mana

• Stormbreath Dragon: hasty beater and great dump for mana in the late game

• Realm-Scorcher Hellkite: more tools on the battlefield after you cast it

• Thundermaw Hellkite: can pave the way for you to kill one or more players on a turn

• Mirrorwing Dragon: beater that's hard to remove with spot removal

• Terror of Mount Velus: game ender

• Hellkite Charger: multiple combat steps

• Ryusei, the Falling Star: hold the table's nonflyers hostage. Kind of expensive though

Other potentially useful mono red tools: Treasonous Ogre for excellent mana production, Heartless Hidetsugu to speed up the game, Impact Tremors for free damage with all these creatures, Dictate of the Twin Gods to speed up the game and surprise kill people after blocks are declared.

A hot take: if you wanted, you could swap the commander for Magda, Brazen Outlaw and split the deck into a bit of a Dwarf/Dragon tribal idea. She can tutor for Dragons and helps you create the mana to get them out, more of an engine in the command zone than Drakuseth's removal. Would need to swap some of the Dragons for Dwarves and refactor the theme a little, so it's really a different deck, but figured I'd suggest it.

Since you're on all Mountains, would the new Themberchaud fit in? I feel like if you cheat it out late it's ETB might take out an opponent or two, but it can also be dug out early to wipe out all the pesky non-flyers.

Great premise and cool deck!
