Ur

Format: Commander

Commander: The Ur-Dragon

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This is a five-color Dragon tribal battlecruiser built around The Ur-Dragon's eminence discount and attack-trigger value engine. The deck wants to accelerate with mana dorks, signets, and Dragon cost reducers, then bury opponents under a wave of Dragons while the commander draws cards and cheats permanents into play for free. Wins are combat-oriented rather than combo-oriented: Scourge of the Throne adds an extra combat, Atarka, World Render doubles Dragon damage, Klauth, Unrivaled Ancient refuels mana after attacks, and Tiamat finds the endgame package. There are no infinite combos, so the deck relies on density, haste, and repeated attack triggers rather than a compact kill. The commander is important as a recurring draw/cheat engine, but the eminence cost reduction keeps the deck functional even before it is cast or after it is answered.
