RE: Magic: The Gathering | Draconic Dominiation Commander
Nice post, I've always liked Dragons. Have you checked on any of the below cards? They're all reasonably priced and may be helpful against the issues you're having
Bogardan Hellkite - Dragon 6RR When it enters the battlefield it deals 5 damage distributed as you chose to any number of target creatures or players. Really nice against the weenie decks and can be a nice little kill spell if necessary. This was the go to dragon in the DragonStorm deck that won the world championships in 2006.
On that note it could use the card Dragon Storm!
A toolbox tutor for dragons that storms... Need I say more? Play along side Seething Song and Dark Petition for free mana / storm count.
If you're worried about early creatures, there are some nice enchants to help with this. Porphyry Nodes at W should help against aggro, even Elephant Grass may be viable against the weenies. Glostly prison is also great to slow down a game until you can get going.
In 5 color I also would maybe add Abrupt Decay in just about any circumstance. Beast Within can also take care of pesky enchantments or anything else. Aura Shards may also be just perfect for a creature heavy deck
Very good points! I haven’t looked into that deck before, I might need to ;) Like you said my big problems could be addressed with a few cards, I just didn’t know which ones.
Bogardan would help out tremendously when playing against commanders like Vraska, Relic Seeker or Krenko, Mob Boss. Elephant Grass would be a good choice as well during lots of creatures. @feenix do you know of any other cards that would be good in commader format? I have been thinking about adding the “Dragonlord” versions of some of the cards I have in there already like Silugmar and Dromoka.
I like Dromoka, Ojutai, and Atakra does similar stuff to Bogardan. Koaghan is just aweful in commander and Silugmar is ok.
I played a commander based on the dragon Prossh, Skyraider of Kher for a while where Prossh + Food Chain made for some really funny interactions with cards like Ashnod's alter. Infinite mana out of nowhere. Could always also infinite loop mana with an Animate Dead and Worldgorger Dragon combo. If you play fetchable lands you can grab most with an Eternal Dragon cycling if you build the deck with extra W. Harbringer of the Hunt also just wrecks weenie decks at will.
