Foundations Ramos by Djerid

Format: Commander

Commander: Ramos, Dragon Engine

Bracket: 2

Deck overview

Ramos, Dragon Engine leads a five-color value-Gates build that ramps into a critical mass of multicolored spells, turning Ramos into a one-shot mana battery. The primary plan is to cast Aurelia, the Warleader and Savage Ventmaw, then convert two combat phases and Ventmaw's floating mana into a huge Exsanguinate. Secondary paths include commander damage from a counter-stacked Ramos with double strike, and Maze's End assembly of the ten guildgates. Lifegain, recursion, and landfall draw keep the engine moving. No hidden commander exists; the deck is built squarely around Ramos's color-adding ability.
