Come on a journey to a terrible land, caged by the tyranny of Zirilan. Using troves of hoarded artifice and ancient magics the land itself is not safe from the onslaught. When the apocalypse comes only the dragons shall remain.

The idea is to get some dragons into play with Zirilan then do fun things with them.

Some interactions (warning, cheaty bullshit below) are:

• Use Sundial of the Infinite or Conjurer's Closet to avoid the end of turn trigger

• Use a sacrifice outlet to get the dragon into the graveyard to recur with Mimic Vat

• Get multiple dragons at once with Illusionist's Bracers and Rings of Brighthearth

• Get Utvara Hellkite and Scourge of Valkas or Dragon Tempest in play and laugh

• Put a Sword of Feast and Famine on a Hellkite Charger, or just with an Aggravated Assault out, to attack for days

• Hide things in the Helvault , Synod Sanctum, or under Worldgorger Dragon, then call the doom with Jokulhaups, Obliterate, Apocalypse, Nevinyrral's Disk, or Oblivion Stone

• Use Minion Reflector or Flameshadow Conjuring to copy Worldgorger Dragon, then blink the board infinite times to generate infinite mana, or infinite triggers with Valakut, the Molten Pinnacle, Warstorm Surge, or Bogardan Hellkite

If Zirilan can't stay to play there's the backup ramp suite of mana rocks like Sol Ring, mana doublers with Extraplanar Lens, Gauntlet of Power, and Caged Sun, and land ramp with Myriad Landscape and Thawing Glaciers.

And if the dragons aren't big enough there's all manner of toys to help out, Gratuitous Violence, Berserkers' Onslaught , and Crucible of Fire let the lizards hit like a truck, and the Pandemonium effects give some extra bang for the buck.

...and on top of all that the dragons themselves have some useful abilities:

• Hoarding Dragon lets you pretend to play Arcum Dagsson

• Dragon Mage and Knollspine Dragon help keep you full of gas

• Thunder Dragon, Balefire Dragon, Hellkite Tyrant, Steel Hellkite, and Scourge of Kher Ridges all act as additional sweepers

• When sweeping isn't the answer Hoard-Smelter Dragon and Rimescale Dragon give pinpoint removal
