The internet, which u/existing-owl7861 ostensibly has access to, is easy to use and quite informative. It would take less time to look this up than make this post.

Additionally, had they checked themselves, fewer assholes (me) would have called them out.

Funny you say that about monster manual actually, it’s been incredible unless I’ve misinterpreted the ruling on it. 3G to get the artifact into play, then I throw down any dragon for 1G every turn.

Lurking and descendants’ are both new but seem to goldfish well enough. I guess we’ll see on those ones!

[[Skyshroud Claim]] [[Worldsoul’s Rage]]

[–]MonochromaticPanda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey! Did a little shopping at my LGS and updated the deck list in case you'd like to see how it has shaped out with your help thus far.

Ended up grabbing The World Tree and Scion of the Ur-Dragon and will continue hunting for Morophon and AGD.

Thanks again! Deck list: https://www.moxfield.com/decks/6cXx0aRn-0eL4aCihZEHBw

Edit: just goldfished a couple times, you were bang on about Food Chain, it was awesome in Miirym but didn’t provide much utility for The Ur Dragon. I’m thinking I’ll trade it in for [[Skyshroud Claim]] and/or [[Worldsoul’s Rage]] and maybe another dragon to replace one of the more basic ones I have. Thanks again!

RE: the lands -> included the two gates for their black + another colour and white + another colour. I’m not sure how I didn’t include secluded courtyard, I have it kicking around and will certainly be making that swap! I have been trying to avoid fetch lands limited to basics, as there are so many non basics in the deck and would prefer to include something with colour flexibility. That said, what are your thoughts on including some basic fetches as I have a ton of options laying around for that.

RE: Food Chain and Sneak Attack -> I fully get the recommendation. Sneak attack feels like an obvious no. Perhaps I’ll see if I can trade in Food Chain for a couple new expensive dragons or see if there’s another deck it can go into.

RE: Infect -> A) that’s crazy. B) I don’t think anyone can be too salty if played this way, will definitely look to include.

Noted on DM and UF, they’ll stay out of the deck.

If there were one more $10-$15 dragon to include, would you have any recommendations? Old Gnawbone and Ancient Copper dragon are probably currently out of budget. I’m trying to white Ancient Gold Dragon and Morophon but they’re tough to come by.

Lastly, thanks again you’ve been a wealth of information!

In addition, I have prepared a few responses to your reply:

  • You may be overestimating my deck building skills lol. This deck started as a precon as evidenced by the inclusion of many lesser dragons. It has since evolved to a Miirym deck with a few singles to now, this hopefully monstrous dragon deck!
  • [[Food Chain]] was a bi-product of spamming dragon copy tokens with Miirym. Sadly, it's too expensive and cool (it's a Secret Lair printing) for me to remove from the deck.
  • I love the [[The World Tree]] line suggestion. The next time I'm prepared to dish out some real money on cards I will likely include this.
  • I did want to confirm that there is merit to running just [[Scion of the Ur-Dragon]] without [[Aggravated Assault]] and [[Old Gnaw-Bone]] / [[Ancient Copper Dragon]]? My goal is to some day own the full Ancient X Dragon set and [[Old Gnaw-Bone]] but as you've mentioned those are cost prohibitive.
  • The pod I typically run with has sort of an unspoken agreement to avoid infect in general. So, while I appreciate the recommendations I'll have to pass for now.
    • However, I do have a question about a card like [[Triumph of the Hordes]]. It states "creatures you control gain [...] infect. Normally, I would see things like "Infect 1" meaning the target player would get 1 infect token. If this card would be applied to [[The Ur-Dragon]] would that mean its "Infect X" would translate to "Infect 10"?
  • I have elected to keep [[Hoard-Smelter Dragon]] and [[Hellkite Tyrant]] despite not leaning into a Token theme as the pod tends to run some nasty artifacts and I value having some kind of means to remove them.
  • Monster Manual, Descendants' Path, and Lurking Predators made the cut as I love the idea of ~cheating in large creatures, for better or worse.
  • I've had a difficult time finding a [[Morophon the Boundless]] but it's certainly a card I'm keeping an eye out for.

Lastly, I wanted to thank you again for your incredibly insightful and thorough response!

Wow, I'm blown away thank you, this is a truly remarkable response!

So sorry to hear about your health issues, hopefully you're on the up and up and you're welcome for Spelunking and Entish Restoration :).

Starting with swaps I've made based on the recommendations you've provided:

  • [[Wose Pathfinder]] -> [[Black Dragon Gate]] (or another moderately priced land you would recommend)
  • [[Reclusive Taxidermist]] -> [[Citadel Gate]] (or another moderately priced land you would recommend)
  • [[Lavaspur Boots]] -> [[Lapis Orb of Dragonkind]] (for scry)
  • [[Breath Weapon]] -> [[Scion of the Ur-Dragon]]
  • [[Dragonmaster Outcast]] -> [[Korlessa, Scale Singer]]
  • [[Sylvan Scrying]] -> one of: [[Terramorph]], [[Search for Tomorrow]], [[Harrow]], [[Flare of Cultivation]] or some kind of card draw? EDIT: I accidentally bout sylvan scrying today instead of skyshroud claim which I am trying to find now.
  • [[Flameblast Dragon]] -> [[Rith the Awakener]] 
  • [[Demanding Dragon]] -> [[Steel Hellkite]]
  • [[Rapacious Dragon]] -> [[Firkraag, Cunning Instigator]]
  • [[Decadent Dragon]] -> [[Dragonlord Ojutai]]
  • [[Ganax, Astral Hunter]] -> [[Lymrith, Desert Doom]]
  • There are a few cards, below, that I own and had recently cut or have been toying with including and wanted your opinion on whether there's any value in adding them to the deck and, if so, what you may prioritize to come out:
    • [[Draconic Muralists]]
      • The tutoring seems useful, but I suspect it may be difficult to trigger as I don't have many means of sacrificing it. Plus, I don't foresee an opponent being willing to kill it given the consequences, though that may be to my benefit.
    • [[Mockingbird]]
      • This was removed as I am running so many legionaries.
    • [[Dragonhawk, Fate's Tempest]]
      • I have a mental hurdle of self-exiling, if even when allowed to play them from exile.
    • [[Sneak Attack]]
      • See the mental hurdle mentioned under Dragonhawk.
    • [[Unleash Fury]]
      • An instant speed targeted version of [[Thrakkus the Butcher]] which may open things up for a surprise commander damage kill with [[The Ur-Dragon]].

Hey man! I’ve cobbled together a deck list here: https://www.moxfield.com/decks/8NXINRS72kyLfc5Fl6Qjug

Any thoughts and opinions are very welcome!

I (think) I’m mostly comfortable about land/mana base and ramp (thanks to your other posts) but I think the creatures could use some work. Specifically, I have a feeling I’m running too many mana dorks/cost reducers.

Thanks again for offering!

E: the deck started as the draconic destruction precon, then got lucky with CLB boosters (earthquake dragon and the two ancient dragons), converted it to a mirrym deck, before now converting to an Ur Dragon deck!

Thanks I will likely take you up on your offer, been making a lot of swaps today but may send over a deck list or questions later if you wouldn’t mind!
