Deck overview

This deck is a Rakdos Dragon Tribal strategy commanded by Rivaz of the Claw. Rivaz acts as both an acceleration piece and a recursion engine, generating two mana specifically for Dragons and allowing one Dragon cast from the graveyard each turn. The deck curves into massive flying threats such as Terror of the Peaks, Utvara Hellkite, and Ancient Copper Dragon ahead of schedule. It maximizes damage output using haste enablers like Dragon Tempest and Anger, damage multipliers like Twinflame Tyrant, and double strike from Terror of Mount Velus. With graveyard setup tools such as Buried Alive and mass reanimation via Patriarch's Bidding, the deck maintains resilience against creature removal while applying heavy aerial combat pressure.
