Sweet mother of-- 90 upvotes! —July 2, 2014

This deck turned out incredibly awesome and fun to play!

As always, if you have suggestions, I'm always happy to hear them! :D

you could remove courser of kruphix as it doesn't actually put you ahead on mana. you could also just straight up remove dragon egg as it seems pretty under powered as it doesn't do much killing or ramping the two things cards in this deck should do.

harmonize seems interesting, other good green card draw is Hunter's Prowess it can draw more cards and deal more damage but is weak to removal. love the deck +1 :)

I've considered it, but I feel like if I'm top-decking, I won't have much else to spend that 4 mana on to guarantee card draw.

I'd rather not give my enemy the luxury of a choice. Thanks for the suggestion! :D

Jdvanliew: If I only have 1 Xenagos, The Reveler , I lose consistency. I'd rather have a 3/60 chance of drawing Garruk Wildspeaker than split him up and use another planeswalker.

The main reason I am using Garruk Wildspeaker is for his +1! Thanks for the suggestion though :)

Have you considered Somberwald Sage ? It gets you tons of mana for more dragons. It's at least better than Gilded Lotus here. I think your ramp package could use an update. I would go:

4 Arbor Elf

4 Birds of Paradise

4 Utopia Sprawl

4 Somberwald Sage

4 Courser of Kruphix

This is much more reliable and explosive. You can either do "slow" ramp with dorks and Courser of Kruphix or fast with Somberwald Sage . This also allows for a T3 Balefire Dragon .

I'd go up to 4 Dragon Broodmother and cut 1 Crucible of Fire since Broodmaster is so good and Crucible isn't good without dragons. I also recommend splashing blue for Niv-Mizzet, Dracogenius for some card draw. Scourge of Valkas is also an awesome dragon that will deal a ton of damage of the course of the game.

I love the deck, +1 from me.

I like Somberwald Sage a lot! I chose to mainboard 3 of them over 2x Gilded Lotus and 1x Crucible of Fire .

Thanks for the suggestion! :3

I like this deck a lot reminds me of a standard deck I had back in ISD/Scars, anyway since you have 4 Somberwald Sage have you considered a 1 of Mikaeus, the Unhallowed ? Giving your dragons undying just makes your opponent cry a little ;)

Sarkhan the Mad because they're not dead enough already.

4x Arbor Elf and 4x Somberwald Sage makes you very dead to Pyroclasm or Wrath of God .

Love the deck. Nice job. +1

smithereen: That's why I have Gilded Lotus and Cultivate in my sideboard.

Thanks kj72454! And thank you all for the suggestions.

Dragonmaster Outcast could work in here, great deck might have to make one like it :) .

Yeah, I actually really like that card in the deck. The problem is that if I wanted to utilize Dragonmaster Outcast to it's full potential, I'd have to revert my ramping package back to the less-efficient version I had earlier.

Dragonmaster Outcast is a killer sideboard choice though, and it's going in there for now!

Thanks for the suggestion man! :D
