Flarhoon13 on Game of Thrones: Sylvia Brightspear's Dragons

5 months ago

Nov 9 and 16 Game of Thrones: Khorvath and Sylvia Brightspear's other Dragons lost one game before finally pulling one out. Jesse's boardwipe inadvertently assisted me--Supreme Verdict? thanks to my Boros Charm. Will killed Kelsey on Orzhov Aristocrats, then my Magmaquake took out Kestia, the Cultivator in response to an aura being cast. Sunforger got Return to Dust, which took out his Sphere of Safety plus another copy. Quicksilver Amulet, with me on six lands, allowed Utvara Hellkite to make 3 other 6/6 dragon tokens and then finally another 6 on the final turn with me on six lands

Flarhoon13 on For all Intet's Purposes, Dreaming Dragons

5 months ago

May 3, 2024 I started a new quest. Having built 52 decks, I endeavoured to play them all, in roughly the same order as I created them.

June 14

For all Intet's Purposes, Dreaming Dragons won. 13-11. Great game, actually. Jesse exiled all creatures the turn before I was planning to kick a Rite of Replication on Scourge of Valkas. That would have been over 200 damage. Some few turns later facing Jesse's constant Oblivion Ring removal effects, I still won via Temur Ascendancy and Utvara Hellkite. Earthquake Dragon--I cast for 1 lol. Emrakul, the Promised End came out with haste via Selvala's Stampede. It was a relentless Thunder of dragons!!!

Idoneity on Commander Story Circle

Yesternight I went to my LGS's free-play commander event. It had been a while and I was looking forward to it. In the second round with a lovely group, I played my Bladewing the Risen deck, an old and reliable favourite.

It was a slow start for us all; I did some discarding and then cast a Wheel of Fortune. Because I was against three green opponents, I was disappointed when the only dragon I drew was a Hellkite Tyrant. There were no artifacts as far as I could tell. But then I noticed something.

The wheel had drawn a foe into an Ygra, Eater of All. Everything was food and everything was dying, so it quickly became massive. But I had a beautiful Hellkite Tyrant, which was soon wearing Greaves, which had soon granted me control of all of their food creatures.

On a previous night with the same deck, an opponent had resolved a Possibility Storm, so I began casting Rummaging Goblins with the hope of hitting Utvara Hellkites.

Magic has innumerable interactions that each recontextualize the game-state, sometimes to the degree of utterly unforeseen terrain.

Do you have any stories of your deck doing something you had never designed it to do? Maybe it operated off a card you included for another purpose entirely, or maybe your opponent cast a Dream Halls and you popped off to new heights. Tell your tales!

That's how I play Magic, though. I look at cards as investments.

The way I construct a deck, each card should be able to stand on its own and extrapolate across the board with each new addition.

That's the philosophy between "combo" and "synergy". For example, Impact Tremors, Purphoros, God of the Forge, and Warstorm Surge may all stand on their own but extrapolate the pain when working in synergy with one another.

Then you extrapolate further with cards such as Scourge of Valkas, Dragon Tempest, Terror of the Peaks and Utvara Hellkite and suddenly you are the biggest threat at the table.

Run this with Lathliss, Dragon Queen and all of a sudden every single card becomes a stand-alone threat, all radically compounding the pain on top of one-another.

The reason I build decks like this is because if a single spell is countered, or I endure a boardwipe, that is okay because the very next spell I cast replaces what I've just lost.

I've actually dealt enough damage with boardstates like this to take down all three opponents at once from targeted and indirect damage, no to mention combat damage when you apply Fervor, Purphoros, Bronze-Blooded and Dragon Tempest.

Anyway, sorry for the tangent. Just explaining my own personal deck-building process and how I play.

You don't have the dragons for Zirilans' best lines though. On a turn where you have Zirilan available, pass. Tutor a dragon in the end step of the player before you, so it will be in play during your turn. Get either Terror of the Peaks or Scourge of Valkas. On your own turn, tutor Utvara Hellkite. Trigger scourge or terror, deal damage.

Ideally then you want to copy Utvara Hellkite with Molten Duplication, Heat Shimmer, Twinflame, or Cursed Mirror. If you do, you get more attackers AND double the tokens. It's even better if you had a 4-cost dragon before putting out Zirilan.

Then attack with all your dragons. In the ideal case, you create 8 tokens (4 attacking dragons x2 utvara hellkites) Trigger scourge of valkas or Terror of the peaks for each token. For additional triggers, play Dragon Tempest. This will often kill everyone at the table, and leave you with 8x 6/6 dragons (48 power) if they are not dead.

Suppose Scourge of Valkas was your second dragon after some random 4 cost dragon. Its triggers deal 2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+10+11+12=77 damage from the triggers alone and you are attacking for 4+4+6+6 = 20. So that's 97 damage on turn 6, consistently.

My version is a bit more artifact focused but have you tried Clone Legion, Dollhouse of Horrors, Mechanized Production, or Utvara Hellkite?

First of all, I love your deck choices!

But I believe that Ancient Gold Dragon would be a very good card to add even if he doesn't have haste. First of all he’s a 7/10 good blocker for the turn he comes in unlike Ancient Copper Dragon (6/5) but I understand that it’s slow if you don’t have a way to give him haste. Love Copper Dragon treasures thought <3

Imagine having Dragon Tempest /Scourge of Valkas /Terror of the Peaks out when up to 20 x blue faerie dragons enters the battlefield. The amount of damage each trigger would do.

Also very good with all attack triggers or other cool dragons you have in the deck (Dromoka, the Eternal, Kolaghan, the Storm's Fury, Old Gnawbone, Silumgar, the Drifting Death,Utvara Hellkite, Wrathful Red Dragon, Defiant Thundermaw  ^Flip).

You could also potentially draw up to 20 cards if Kindred Discovery or Greater Good is on the battlefield. Puts a good number of counters on Dragon's Hoard also.

I’d love to hear your opinion on why you didn’t include him in your list with all the good synergies!

I think I would probably have to switch Balefire Dragon for Ancient Gold Dragon. Most big problematic creatures have more than 6 toughness so Balefire doesn’t get rid of them it’s only good against Tokens stacking strategies early on. I’d rather get many blockers each turn recurring and like explained you only need 1 of those 3 pieces (Dragon Tempest/Scourge of Valkas/Terror of the Peaks) to do almost the same effect as Balefire but targeting anything.

Coward_Token My first thought is big tokens. Utvara Hellkite and Call the Skybreaker can churn through big chunks of your deck. If one out of every ten cards in your deck is an extra turn or extra combat spell, you might be able to get just enough punch to force a win with those two cards alone.

Of course, you need to get to that point, but that's what the rest of the deck is for.
