Too Many Combos? Not Enough!

Welcome to Scion's shiny combo deck of dragons where every card selected works by it's self (except you Worldgorger) and serves as a combo piece or combo protection!

I decided, against my better judgement, to only add cards that could be foiled to my deck and completely forwent any tutor cards save for scion himself. While tutors might push this deck to a semi-competitive level I didn't want to fall into tutoring for the same combo each game and miss out of the rest of my deck. For me purely drawing into a combo feels more of a fun way to win and changes my winning strategy each game for my opponents. The deck has been surprisingly efficient since almost every card works with at least two combos or more and can be an efficient beater or value card on its own.

The deck is overflowing with combos and fun interactions such as:

Bear Umbra + Hellkite Charger = infinite attack steps

Savage Ventmaw + Bear Umbra + Aggravated Assault = infinite attack steps

Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind + Ophidian Eye /Curiosity = draws your deck out and deals damage per card drawn

Hellkite Charger + Savage Ventmaw = additional attack step for

activate Scion's ability twice. on the first activation turn him into Moltensteel Dragon pay six times. on the second activation change him into Skittles for 10 poison counters. Moltensteel Dragon and be subbed out for Hellkite Tyrant or Dragon Tyrant if you have the red mana and Skittles can be subbed out for Dragon Tyrant for commander damage win.

overload Cyclonic Rift and hit a player with Nicol Bolas if you want to lose them as a friend

turn Scion into Bladewing the Risen. cast either Animate Dead or Beacon of Unrest targeting Bladewing. When he enters the battlefield since scion is a copy the legend rule will check and you must put one of the two into the graveyard before the etb go onto the stack. Put Bladewing in the graveyard and target him with the etb. This creates and infinite loop of Bladewing entering the battlefield and entering the graveyard until you target something else with his etb. If Dragon Tempest is on the board it kills the table. If Temur Ascendancy is on the board you draw out your deck. If you don't kill the table then you can cast Bitter Ordeal to exile everyone's deck.

Have Worldgorger Dragon in the graveyard. cast Animate Dead on him and he will hit the battlefield. When he enters all of your other permanents leave the battlefield including Animate Dead. when it gets unattached from Worldgorger Dragon he has to be sacrificed return all your permanents. when Animate Dead returns you target Worldgorger Dragon starting the process again. If Temur Ascendacy is on the board you draw your deck out, if Dragon Tempest is on the board you kill the table off, and you can cast bitter ordeal to exile everyone's libraries. If you can produce infite you can kill the table with Niv-Mizzet, Dracogenious.

I'd love to hear what you think of the deck and maybe you caught a synergy I missed. If you enjoyed my deck please give it an upvote.
