Deck overview

This deck is a dedicated 5-Color Dragon Tribal build commanded by The Ur-Dragon. The primary strategy uses Eminence to discount high-cost Dragon spells by {1} mana throughout the entire match. In the early game, the deck establishes its five-color mana base using efficient ramp spells, mana dorks, and Signets. By Turn 4, it deploys core engine pieces such as Miirym, Sentinel Wyrm, Terror of the Peaks, or Lathliss, Dragon Queen. On Turn 5, dropping additional Elder Dragons triggers massive burn, token duplication, and combat triggers that quickly take over the board. Supporting protection spells like Dawn's Truce, Asceticism, and Flawless Maneuver defend against board wipes, while asymmetric sweepers like Ruinous Ultimatum and Raise the Palisade clear opposing blockers. The deck finishes games through overwhelming aerial combat damage and direct damage triggers across Turns 6 and 7.
