WIP

I recently inherited a big box of magic cards from someone, and with that box came a card with a fantastic story, and a note that said this:

The Legend Of Darigaaz, the Igniter

In the ancient times of the early 2000s, some friends at Walton High school played Magic. Cal would bring wild decks and create chaos. Tony would crush enemies with his zombie horde. Ross would fight gallanty with soldiers and wizards. When Darigaaz, the Igniter would appear, destruction followed. One day, Cal began a noble tradition of caring and friendship when he beqeathed the power of this dragon to Tony. Soon after, the honor was passed to Ross. Darigaaz has slumbered for twenty years, waiting to reemerge and set opponents alight. You are now set with this great burden and honor, not only to respect their power and use it, but also to continue the legacy of passing on this legendary creature when the time is right. Good luck.

I read this and I immediately knew that I would build this dragon the jankiest, jundiest, greatest deck I possibly could. Thanks for stopping by, and please join me on this journey, and help me carry out the legacy of Darigaaz, the Igniter. If you would like to read more about the deck, continue down below!

Getting started

So, what I imagined as I first looked at the card was a deck that kind of forcefed the opponents plenty of cards, and then our big dragon would come swinging in and then they would take damage while having a jundy side theme. Now, right now i'm just looking online at stuff that would be good in the deck, either google or EDHRec. Please bear with me in the first little bit, I'm not the greatest at brewing up decks and don't know lots of cards of a wide variety. If you have any ideas, please just comment down below no matter what; at this stage I dont care. I just want to get a rough idea of what I should be working with.

Anyway, I want to keep the focus about 70% on Darigaaz, the Igniter's ability, and then janky fun for the rest.

Strategies

Double Trouble

Our main goal with this deck is to get a kill with Darigaaz, the Igniter. The rest is for when that probably fails, but we can do some serious damage in a single combat step if we plan carefully... Double strike is amazing here. We hit twice, which means that he does combat damage twice AND his ability can trigger twice. Lizard Blades and Fireshrieker are perfect cheap options for this, but Atarka, World Render and Avatar of Slaughter(albeit very expensive) do the job as well. Dargon Boy hits for 12 with double strike, and if we activate our ability twice while the opponent has 5 or more cards with the same color they lose automatically. Which is even easier with Painter's Servant, because it can make all of our opponent's cards the same color!

Other doubling effects happen with Fiery Emancipation. I mean, triple damage is great. No matter the cost.

Kill em with Kindness

If our first strat goes south, we just use the rest of the cards in the deck to give people stuff while draining their life total down to zero. One of my favorite things to do is slap a Fiery Emancipation when we have Spiteful Visons on the field, then make them draw a couple cards with Dragon Mage or Molten Psyche and deal upwards of 20 damage. It's just delicious!
