The Ur-Dragon

Dragon Tribal

{W}{U}{B}{R}{G}

Scion of the Ur-Dragon was the first EDH deck that I ever created. It quickly was changed into a deck with The Ur-Dragon at the helm. The Ur-Dragon is the perfect deck for a bruiser. This deck can hit hard and can easily lead to an insane board state. The Ur-Dragon's Eminence ability is not overpowering, but really helps the deck stay competitive with faster decks.With The Ur-Dragon as the king of dragons, Tiamat is easily the queen and can be swapped out as the commander when desired.

The Creature Base

The Creature Base

This deck's main function is stampede opponents with huge dragons. A lot of the dragons synergize with other dragons, functioning almost in the same way slivers do. The more dragons in play, the better the deck performs.

Dragons Helping Dragons

• The Lords of Tarkir: Ojutai, Soul of Winter, Silumgar, the Drifting Death, Kolaghan, the Storm's Fury, Atarka, World Render, and Dromoka, the Eternal. These dragons all pump or buff other dragons in play when attacking.
• Utvara Hellkite and Lathliss, Dragon Queen: These two help flood the board with more dragons. The synergize well with Scourge of Valkas, which can provide some removal on the board or direct damage.
• Thunderbreak Regent and Scalelord Reckoner: These two offer a little bit of protection and deterrent for my dragons on the board.
• Boneyard Scourge: An early dragon on the board and provides a constant presence with it's easy recursion ability.
• Bladewing the Risen: One of the best dragons in the arsenal. I love having Bladewing in the yard, recurring it with Fearsome Awakening or Unburial Rites and getting a two-for-one deal.
• Hellkite Courser: Bring The Ur-Dragon out with its ability and smashing face with it. This could lead to getting more dragons on the board with The Ur-Dragon's ability.
• Tiamat: If The Ur-Dragon is the king of dragons, then certainly Tiamat is the queen of dragons. Her tutor ability helps fill your hand with awesome dragons to be played with The Ur-Dragon's ability and she serves as an alternate Commander when you're looking for some variety.
• Miirym, Sentinel Wyrm: Miirym copies dragons as an ETB and allows dragons to double up.
• Rith, Liberated Primeval: Much needed protection for your dragons and also fills the board with more dragons.

Other Awesome Flying Lizards

• Dragonlord Dromoka: Stax ability on a fat dragon... plus lifelink.
• Balefire Dragon: The best dragon-based board wipe.
• Niv-Mizzet, Parun: Much needed card draw.
• Two-Headed Hellkite: More card draw... need I say more.

Support Creatures

• Morophon, the Boundless: Additional cost reduction on all my dragons, plus an anthem effect.
• Gisela, Blade of Goldnight: The best support creature in the deck. Gisela doubles damage and leads to major damage.

Support

Support

There is a real need for ramp and support in this deck. The dragons are great, but without the support enchantments, artifacts, instants and sorcery's, this deck doesn't function.

More, Please

Ramp is ESSENTIAL to this deck. Dragons cost a lot. The Ur-Dragon's eminence ability helps, but ramp help[s bring the deck to full force.

• Rampant Growth
• Three Visits
• Farseek
• Kodama's Reach
• Cultivate
• Skyshroud Claim
• Smothering Tithe
• Urza's Incubator
• Herald's Horn
• Mirari's Wake
• Chromatic Lantern
• Fellwar Stone
• Arcane Signet
• Sol Ring

Did You Miss Me?

• Fearsome Awakening
• Unburial Rites
• Eerie Ultimatum
• Bladewing the Risen

Hold on, let me check...

• Demonic Tutor
• Vampiric Tutor
• Grim Tutor

Nope!

• Asceticism
• Teferi's Protection
• Heroic Intervention
• Lightning Greaves
• Swiftfoot Boots

I Don't Like That!

• Beast Within
• Generous Gift: Beast Within 2.0
• Void Rend
• Anguished Unmaking
• Crux of Fate: The dragon board wipe
• Kindred Dominance: The other dragon board wipe
• Balefire Dragon: The REAL dragon board wipe... because it's actually coming from a dragon.

Let's Draw Some Cards

• Temur Ascendancy: Also helps with giving creatures haste
• Rhystic Study: Going to pay 1 for that?
• Elemental Bond: Every dragon in the deck is above 3 power.
• Herald's Horn: Get's dragons in your hand.

So You Wanna Block My Dragons?

• Cover of Darkness: So cheap and is really effective
• Bower Passage: Basically reads "dragons are unblockable."

Alternate Win-Cons

Alternate Win-Cons

Although the the main objective is to smash face with dragons, there are a few other tricks in the deck... just a few.

• The World Tree plus Maskwood Nexus: Although still in line with the original plan of killing opponents with dragons, this just does it all at once.
• Dragon Tempest: Especially with some of the dragon engines, like Lathliss, Dragon Queen and Utvara Hellkite, this card is helps get some direct damage across to opponents.
