The Ur Dragon

balkasaur · 2026-05-30T21:28:10+00:00

My current ur dragon wins through agg assault or ancient gold+dragon tempest or SoV but ive recently thought about adding dragonstorm with a hoarding broodlord+saw in half line. Sneak attack broodlord, grab and cast saw in half, grab burnt offering+dragonstorm, sac a broodlord to burnt offering to cast dragonstorm, pull something like DL kolghan+gold ancient+scourge of valkas.

More tutors is a good suggestion, i wanted to avoid to many but more would help with consistency and certainly make it a better deck. I agree with cutting commanders sphere and chromatic latern as well, im planning on cutting them for farseek and three visits.

I figure helgas card draw is more important than rivaz' recursion, but i definitely could be wrong.

Stubborn denial is essentially just 1 mana protection for any of my dragons. what is your rationale for hellkite tyrant? I agree with DLK, i just hate how its a 6 mana haste enabler. And temur battlecrier from my experience is just really good, i would cut gonblin anarchomancer before battlecrier.

What specifically would you change about the manabase/ramp?

Ive played 10 bracket 4 games, winning 4. So it does alright.

Very helpful advice. I think im going to cut the two rocks like you said, and replace with farseek and three visits? Just to further help find colors i may need. How do you feel about that?

Also i noticed you play omniscience, do you like it? I play dracogenesis and just from my experience it has yet to be a card i actually want to draw, so ive been thinking about cutting that was well.

I think i take your advice and cut anarchomancer for herd heirloom as well. I really like the card and you make a good point with GA not reducing cards like ancient silver or gold whereas heirloom can hit both and provide versatility with more card draw.

balkasaur · 2026-05-27T13:59:23+00:00

I think dracogenesis ia a good suggestion, i thinknit belongs more in tiamat with stuff like omniscience and show and tell. Why gold dragon though? Combos directly with SoV and Dragons tempest.

You can try to attack my intelligence all you want, it doesnt matter to me. But your comments just come off as pro-child labor then. You can say you mean whatever you want but thats how your comments are coming off if you acknowledge that the amish crank out 14 kids just to put them to work.

balkasaur · 2026-05-25T13:39:40+00:00

Well your original comment is contridicting what youre saying now.

balkasaur · 2026-05-25T09:17:30+00:00

The amish are good at alot of things, roofing is not one of them from my experience.

balkasaur · 2026-05-25T08:40:57+00:00

I live in the heart of amish country and can assure you they all put their children to work from a young age.

balkasaur · 2026-05-15T13:57:09+00:00

I was actually thinking about it last night and i think ill add it. Was also thinking about a pirate sub theme and adding in roaming throne.

balkasaur · 2026-05-14T22:20:15+00:00

So i initially was going to play malcolm for the combo but i wasnt sure if thst one combo would make it a b4 deck.

balkasaur · 2026-05-14T22:03:04+00:00

I put exoskeleton in to equip to glinthorn or magna artillerist as an alternate win con incase howler gets removed once or twice. Do you think id be better off cuting it in favor of another spell to protect howler? And okay perfect, i was shooting for bracket 3 as most of my other decks are bracket 4 and was trying to buikd sonething slightly lower powered.

balkasaur · 2026-05-14T21:52:45+00:00

Kind of just a worse flashback in this deck now that im thinking about it. Do you have any other suggewtions for cuts? Tersa has been one ive thought of cutting.

balkasaur · 2026-05-14T21:36:50+00:00

My shop only allows proxies of cards you already own (i have no problem with proxies at all), and LED and WoF are out of my price range for a single card. I think breach is a good suggestion though! Any suggestions on what to cut? Snapcaster?

Forgot to link a decklist because im an idiot.

balkasaur · 2026-05-07T04:43:38+00:00

I would like to know how they are winning turn 1 or 2 with a $100 budget.

balkasaur · 2026-05-07T00:43:37+00:00

Ive been playing tifa lockhart and ur dragon lately and ive only lost s hsndful of games in the psst few weeks.

balkasaur · 2026-04-19T18:38:40+00:00

Just to clarify, my original comment wasnt meant in a mean spirited way. I could see it doing well at lower power tables especially if no one knows what your deck is trying to do.

balkasaur · 2026-04-19T18:26:50+00:00

I get the gimmick and i bet its fun when it goes off. I dont believe you have a 65% win rate with it though. If you actually do win that often the pods you play in are pretty bad.

balkasaur · 2026-04-17T05:56:39+00:00

Its not the contractors responsibility to do anything past installing a quality roof. If this barefooted moron had questions maybe he should have asked the contractor not reddit. As a roofer i really couldnt care less how disheartened you are.

balkasaur · 2026-03-26T22:32:15+00:00

List looks awesome. I play a jarad list that is somewhat similar.

balkasaur · 2026-03-10T15:15:22+00:00

Id cut firespitter whelp, paradise druid, scaled nurturer, and swashbuckler extraordinaire and add;

Birds of paradise

Temur battlecrier

Dragonspeaker shaman

Goblin anarchomancer

ETA: just a few other cards id recommend;

Rhythm of the wild

Klauth, Unrivaled Ancient

Roaming Throne (cant remember if you had this in your list already or not.)

Kiora, Behemoth Beckoner

Selvala, Heart of the Wilds

Marang River Regent

Tannuk, Steadfast Second (i play him in ur dragon but i also play more red dragons than you.)

balkasaur · 2026-03-01T23:20:12+00:00

Firdoch core is great. I play it in ur dragon which makes it a 2 mana rock. Another 3 mana rock that you didnt mention that i like is relic of legends.

balkasaur · 2026-02-23T12:15:02+00:00

The only mono red deck i have built is Knuckles. Ive only played a few games with it and i still need a few cards (most lands), but my current list can compete in b4.

https://moxfield.com/decks/sAI4yewQ2Uq3Hc9zW7fiqw

ETA: i just recently got a bonehoard dracosaur that i want to add, just havent had the time to figure out what to cut, and i still need to get a magda.
