"The Dromoka are a true community, dragons and desert survivors bound together by their common allegiance to their devoted dragonlord. The clan embodies the draconic aspect of endurance, and their symbol, fittingly, is the dragon's scale. The same scale is woven into the armor they wear to battle, granting them protection. They march in close ranks and fight with the support and cooperation of the dragons in Dromoka's brood."

The clan is as one

Having read the story about Dromoka and her clan, I thought it would be really cool to build an EDH deck that emulates the clan and their structure.

I really like associating a theme to my decks. The idea of a "family" where everyone is respected for who they are and what they bring to the table is a fun theme to build around.

A few requirements I put in place for the deck are:

  1. No Gods (The clan does not allow worship of deities)

  2. Cards that pertain to Dromoka herself must be present, that is unless they are hilariously bad.

  3. It needs to be a combination of creatures (Dragons, Humans, Elf's, etc.), as that is how the clan is structured.

  4. Lastly and obviously Dromoka must lead the deck.

I tried to balance as much as I could between ramp, card draw and protection. There are several removal spells, fetch type spells and creature buffs. This deck has gone through many revisions and the power level has gone up by a lot since its first inception. I very much plan on having this deck remain my main. It is not the most powerful deck but, it is strong and will hold its own. The deck is built specifically to be able to handle many different situations and board states. It is very control heavy but, I like it that way and to be honest that fits the central theme of the clans rules.

I would really appreciate any feedback anybody might have for improving this deck. I am not against spending some money on a card if it fits well.
