I like Rogue decks. They are a lot of fun. Difficult to play usually, but fun. So when I saw how much everybody was trashing Scourge of Valkas, I saw an opportunity. It took me a little while to boil up this concoction, but hopefully you'll all like it.
Disclaimer: This deck is SLOW. Like, really slow. So if that's not your style, then you probably won't like it. Feel free to suggest things though.
I was considering R/B dragons for more access to removal, but Niv-Mizzet, Dracogenius is so cool, I just couldn't bear to not have him in the deck. Plus, more dragons.
So basically, the strategy is this: Use cheap burn to keep the field clear until you can summon your own big, beefy dragons. Dragon Egg may seem like an odd card to use, but it yields two dragons, himself and one when he dies. This is a very nice thing to note when looking at the abilities of Scourge of Valkas and Purphoros, God of the Forge. Plus he's cheap. Always nice.
Utvara Hellkite is here for the really late game (which by the way is where this deck intends to get to). Pumping out 6/6 dragons for EACH dragon attacking (we have a lot of those) is insane board advantage in this case, and if everything survives, probably good game.
The sideboard is to make our deck more stally, mainly to suit up against aggro decks and devotion decks, though Ratchet Bomb would help with any unusual token decks, as well as aggro decks based on cheap creatures (looking at you Soldier of the Pantheon). Let me know what you guys think!
