I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE SOME HELP HERE GUYS!
So I find this card Dragon Broodmother very interesting and decided to do a deck around it. With the ~~new~~ Dragon Tempest a modern not-so-bad dragon deck is finally possible. I don't claim this to be competitive by any means or even something really original, but I do really like its playstyle and love dragons, oh wait that's even less original..
Hope u like it and can help me improve it!
Remembering that the eficiency of this deck heavily relies on sideboard choices, the deck will drastically change from game to game.
I cant afford fetch/shock lands or Cavern of Souls. Also Balefire Dragon and Thundermaw Hellkite are kinda out of this budget atm.
1-Birds of Paradise This is a must in any multi-color deck for fixing. Optimal for T1
2-Sylvan Caryatid Nice blocker and also helps fixing. Excels at being annoying due to hexproof. Optimal vs spot removal.
3-Shaman of Forgotten Ways and Somberwald Sage This is the real ramp at the deck. Both of them have good and downsides so I decided to play 2-2. Optimal for T2 for a potential 6 or 7 drop at T3.
SUPPORT
1-Dragon Tempest The most impactful card in the deck. Haste+Burn=good time
2-Sarkhan Unbroken Flavor friend walker, in the worst case it's a 5 mana 4/4. In the best case it's instant win(this really doesn't happen often).
3-Lightning Bolt Running red so why not.
4-Stubborn Denial Protection from many removal spells against my dragons (I may be putting some more of these)
5-Temur Battle Rage You need at least 1 of these in pratically any midrange running red. Game changer.
DRAGONS
1-Dragon Broodmother My favourite. If unchecked(which is most likely not going to happen) can win the game pretty easily by itself. Good for both offense and protection. Dragon Tempest says hi.
2-Dragonlord Atarka Game changer. Can GG vs aggro if played at T3 or T4 since it can pretty much clear the board, also good against other creature ramp decks if played early enough. Plus its 8/8 trample what else could I ask for?
3-Broodmate Dragon Here is a personal taste choice. If played with Dragon Tempest its massive 11 damage supposing there is nothing else on board. Fatal Push ruins it tho.
4-Thunderbreak Regent Its a bolt factory. Plus its a 4 mana 4/4 flyer, good enough. Also can be played at T3 along with Dragon Tempest settling a win at T4.
5-Kolaghan, the Storm's Fury Really good finisher with dash, can even make my dorks useful later on. It's brutal when paired with Dragon Broodmother's tokens
6-Dragonlord Ojutai Hexproof is a key factor for efficiency when there is so many high CMC cards around. Maybe one of the only dragons from KTK that is worth its cost in modern competitive. Fixing does the job for that 99% of the time.
7-Scourge of Valkas An alternative Dragon Tempest it also can be played at T3 paired with it settling a win at T4.
2.Dragon Broodmother+Scourge of Valkas+Dragon Tempest Crazy damage
2.Stormbreath Dragon vs white stupid removals.
3.Blossoming Defense extra protection for dragons
4.Firespout+Feed the Clan+Hornet Nest helps me sustain vs fast aggro decks.
5.Abrupt Decay Very versatile card, can get rid of some nasty stuff like Liliana of the Veil, Death's Shadow and many other modern big threats;
6.Monastery Siege This card is absolutely underrated, its game over for a burn deck if played at t2, also good against discard and heavy spot removal decks. Getting an enchantment hate from 2 to 4 CMC is a real pain.
7.Hellkite Tyrant cause stealing always more fun!
8.Nihil Spellbomb grave hate+draw its pretty much like Relic of Progenitus
T2-LAND, tap both lands and Birds of Paradise into Shaman of Forgotten Ways.
T3-LAND, tap everything into Dragon Tempest+Thunderbreak Regent, burn for 1 swing for 4.
T4-LAND, tap everything into Broodmate Dragon, swing for 12 burn for 5, GG. It's also possible to do Savage Ventmaw+Dragon Broodmother, swing for 8 burn for 5, enemy upkeep, GG. There is plenty of combinations that can do it really.
Of course there is also a possibility of running Somberwald Sage over Shaman of Forgotten Waysfor a T3 Dragon Tempest+Scourge of Valkas which can be even deadlier, opening the chance for a Dragonlord Atarka win at T4 other than the previous wincons. Atarka, World Render will do the trick in any of the situations too, she can't do much by herself since we need at least a haste enabler or a dragon on board for a 7-mana-worth impact on the game.
That's not the way it goes always but it's pretty consistent.
G- Green means ramp in here. It would not be possible without it since all my accelerator are green
B- Some of the core dragons have and there is the possibility of Terminate or Dreadbore which is tempting.
U- Splash, mostly for Sarkhan Unbroken and Keiga, the Tide Star. Also allows me to use Serum Visions and Stubborn Denial. + I had Breeding Pool b4 starting this project so why not blueing this a little.
W- Just a for Dragonlord Ojutai. I'd get more of it if I could afford Path to Exile playset.
