Been brewing this deck for some time now and just after Dragons of Tarkir came out I figured it was time to finally pull the trigger. As expensive as most of these creatures are, the main point is that some of these will never actually be casted. Their purpose is to be used for Scion to copy. This is the second revision I've done of this deck and has so far competed very well in one-on-one and multiplayer commander rounds.

Fun combos

Dragon Broodmother + Utvara Hellkite + Dragon Tempest - If this makes it around the table the Dragon Tempest activates 4 times before my combat phase. Swing with 4 of the little dragons and pump out 4 more. Even if my opponent declares blockers they trade the 1/1 for a 6/6.

Scion of the Ur-Dragon + Dragonlord Ojutai - for me this is more of a protection move. If an opponent tries to burn or steal my commander pay 2 to turn it into Dragonlord Ojutai and it's now hexproof

Scion of the Ur-Dragon + Teneb, the Harvester - Swing for 6 to and pay 2 and a Swamp to bring back a dragon I previously copied or that was destroyed.

Scion of the Ur-Dragon + Yosei, the Morning Star - A defensive move more than anything but block with Scion or let Scion be burned by a spell/ability, pay 2 to turn into Yosei and let him die and tap down and freeze an opponent

Dragon Broodmother + Dragon Tempest + Wound Reflection - Mildly obvious that these 2 work so well together but in a 4 person game it's great because the Dragon Tempest resolves every turn if it isn't burned.

There are a bunch of others that I've come across in playing this deck. I've now played it in multiple 4 person rounds and it has won the majority of the time. Most importantly this is just a fun deck to play with, what I do/can do with my commander changes each game and the amount of control I can have while still pumping out big nasty dragons is great and causes some chaos.
