I want to make all 10 decks, but I found it too cumbersome, especially because I also do NOT want to re-use too many cards between lists. Ideally only Sol Ring and lands.
Starting in August 1st, 2025 I will keep 5 dragons built at all times, swapping to the other 5 every 6 months.
That means starting 08/1/25, I will be using Treva, the Renewer, Dromar, the Banisher, Darigaaz, the Igniter, Oros, the Avenger and Intet, the Dreamer.
Starting 02/1/2026, I will disassemble all of those decks and build. Rith, the Awakener, Teneb, the Harvester, Crosis, the Purger, Numot, the Devastator and Vorosh, the Hunter

Treva: Token deck. Inspired by the old school counterpost archetype as well as other similar decks such as Wake Control.
Decklist: In the Wake of the Renewer
Dromar: I have not yet found a satisfying archetype or direction to go in. I already have dedicated to a "goodstuff" deck this cycle so I will have to come up with something quick. I am leaning towards an ESPER theme deck. As someone online once said, "Just put all the good artifacts into a pile, you will win on accident." The current deck is basically a goodstuff deck attempting to look like a 187 deck.
Decklist: Dromar: Placeholder
Darigaaz: I have really enjoyed playing this commander as a Jund goodstuff pile. He is not good. He is in fact, a terrible commander but that allows me a certain freedom to test and lose games without the impulse to become more competitive. JUND 'EM OUT!
Decklist: The Molten Loop
Oros: I have been enjoying playing Oros as a lifegain combo deck with a lot of clunky engines and such. I have given some thought to tuning that portion down and adding some equipment. My inspiration for this deck started with this video.
Decklist: Rule the Roost
Intet: A dedicated Splinter Twin deck. Especially meant to play like the 2014 Modern Splinter Twin Deck. This deck needs a LOT of work.
Decklist: Ode to Splintertwin
This decklist turned out not to be functional. I am going to start with a generic simic deck and go from there.
