Pioneer Aggro BRGW Burn Dragons Haste Ramp

Sideboard

Well, an aggressive list featuring creatures with haste (or which are able to gain haste) in addition to spells and abilities which deal damage to the opponent directly. Additionally the deck is able do play the long game via different recursion in form of Phyrexian Dragon Engine   and Maelstrom of the Spirit Dragon to transform lands into creatures.

Mainboard tactics

Starting the game with Turn 1 Elf into Kolaghan Warmonger or Sarkhan, Fireblood is very stong. The Warmonger potentially replaces itself on attack while digging six cards deep to find stronger creatures. Especially the Omen dragons with removal attached to them are strong in this situation. The Planeswalker on Turn 2 is scary as it enables the play of Terror of the Peaks on turn three. Additionally if Sarkhan is left unchecked the ultimate is mostly game ending, especially with Terror of the Peaks or Dragon Tempest in play. Even without the Turn 1 Elf the deck is able to play relevant cards as the new Omens help at this point. Dragon Tempest is important as it enables haste and in combination with Kura, the Boundless Sky the ETB turns into "destroy target creature". Kura is also annoying to deal with as it creates a token on death or allows you to search three lands from the library. Hanweir Battlements     enables haste in the late game which is really imporant against control or Niv-to light decks. The off color creatures Immersturm Predator, Dragonlord Dromoka and Twinmaw Stormbrood and the Omen from Disruptive Stormbrood are still castable from the multiple multicolor sources especially Temple of the Dragon Queen is a great land as it's the best Pathway to have with enough dragons.

Sideboard

The Sideboard contains some useful Dragons like Stormbreath Dragon against decks using white removal. I like Grafdigger's Cage as it prevents creatures from entering from the graveyard and library (Pheonix, Jund Sacrifice, Collected Company and Storm the Festival). Surrak, Elusive Hunter sounds great against control, midrange and Bounce decks.
