Need help improving a dragon tribal/ burn deck

Modern Deck Help forum

I just put together a dragon deck with some elements of burn. I would like to know if I can improve this deck in anyway. I would like it to be somewhat competitive/ high level casual, if that is a thing. I don’t plan to go to tournaments but I would like a high level deck.

Burning Dragons

Your mana curve is too high for this to ever be competitive. I suggest doing a google for modern “Skred Red”. It is a controlly mono-red deck that hopes to stall early game before dumping down some hard-hitting but mana-efficient dragons late game. It’s a deck that has had varying success but has been competitively viable in modern for a long while - it’ll be your best bet here.

I would suggest finding 2-3 Skred Red decks online that are aiming to be as competitive as possible, and then make reasonable swaps to fit within your budget

Just went digging and here’s some links. Turns out searching “Dragon Skred” is the way to go, as “Skred Red” has veered a bit away from dragons these days.

list3

list4 (less dragony, but good article)

wallisfaceI did take read of what you said and what the article said. I tuned my deck accordingly to that.
