Deck overview

This deck is a Jund Treasure and Dragon stompy strategy commanded by Ziatora, the Incinerator. It uses efficient 1-2 CMC ramp to accelerate into powerful midgame threats by Turn 4. Once Ziatora or an alternate engine like Goldspan Dragon is in play, the deck accumulates large quantities of Treasure tokens through end-step sacrifices and combat triggers. On Turn 5, it escalates pressure with high-end Dragons like Old Gnawbone and Ancient Copper Dragon or alternate win conditions like Revel in Riches. Opponents face continuous creature attrition from Grave Pact and lethal direct damage from Terror of the Peaks, Mayhem Devil, and Mirkwood Bats, closing games cleanly on Turn 6.
