"What the fuck is a Zirilan?"

Oracle Text:

Legendary Creature — Viashino Shaman ,: Search your library for a Dragon permanent card, put that card onto the battlefield, then shuffle. That Dragon gains haste until end of turn. Exile it at the beginning of the next end step.

Behold the multi-modal, hipster-gasm-est, classically thematic Viashino Shaman dragon summoner: Zirilan of the Claw. This deck is specifically constructed to play differently every game (if you so desire!) by tapping into certain strategies brought to us by one of several artifacts.

The game always starts the same way: gather the goblins. We're looking at a longer game, so we want a healthy blocker base with the upside of last-ditch potential wincon. As soon as we have a single sac outlet, we cast our commander and tutor up a certain dragon: Hoarding Dragon. This scaly fella will find us one of several artifacts that will dramatically swap up the strategy of any given game. Feeling like Dragon Pod, or maybe even Goblin Pod? Go find Pyre of Heroes. Wanna play Obeka, Brute Chronologist? Go find Sundial of the Infinite. Think you can pull off a win with Krenko, Mob Boss? Go find Thousand-Year Elixir. Or simply wait on Hoarding Dragon and find a Nevinyrral's Disk or Lizard Blades when you need one! Still feeling like there aren't enough modes? Add Panharmonicon or any others you may think of!

This deck combines strategies and tribes I've wanted to play with for a long time, but didn't want to be too mainstream about. The beauty of this deck is that you control exactly where your ceiling is, so if you can read the room well enough, you can ensure that this deck plays at exactly the right power level to have the most fun for everybody.
