Deck overview

This is a five-color Dragon-tribal deck built to use Tiamat as a command-zone tutor. The main plan is to ramp into Tiamat, cast her, and immediately fill the hand with five different Dragons, then deploy them with haste and overwhelm the table with flying combat damage. The kill is accelerated by extra-combat chaining: Ancient Copper Dragon / Savage Ventmaw generate mana during combat, which feeds Hellkite Charger or Aggravated Assault for repeated combat phases in a single turn. Damage doublers like Twinflame Tyrant, ETB burn from Terror of the Peaks and Dragon Tempest, and token-copy value from Miirym, Sentinel Wyrm turn the Dragon flood into a fast, explosive finish. Call the Spirit Dragons provides an alternate five-color win condition and blanket indestructibility. The deck is a classic high-curve battlecruiser with a small number of combo-style kill lines.
