Overview:

This Naya (RGW) deck centers around ramping into high-impact Dragons and leveraging treasure synergies to enable explosive plays. While Palladia-Mors serves as a thematic commander with combat potential, the deck's true power lies in hidden commanders like Magda, Brazen Outlaw and Selvala, Eager Trailblazer, which enable rapid mana generation and tutoring. The primary win conditions are infinite combat phases via Aggravated Assault + Savage Ventmaw, overwhelming Dragon swarms with Lathliss, Dragon Queen/Unnatural Growth, and value-driven combat finishers like Akroma's Will. The deck balances dragon tribal synergy with treasure-based ramp and potent card advantage engines.

Primer:

Core Strategy Execution:

1. Early Ramp (Turns 1-3): Deploy mana dorks (Llanowar Elves, Birds of Paradise), land enchantments (Wild Growth, Fertile Ground), or treasure generators (Magda, Storm-Kiln Artist). Use Land Tax/Carpet of Flowers for consistent land drops.
2. Midgame Setup (Turns 4-5): Cast key enablers like Selvala, Eager Trailblazer or Faeburrow Elder for explosive mana. Deploy value dragons (Savage Ventmaw, Etali, Primal Storm) or tutor for combo pieces with Eladamri's Call/Chord of Calling.
3. Win Condition Execution (Turns 5-8):
   • Infinite Combats: Activate Aggravated Assault with Savage Ventmaw's post-combat mana.
   • Dragon Overload: Chain dragon casts using Dracogenesis or Genesis Wave, amplified by Twinflame Tyrant's damage doubling.
   • Alpha Strike: Deploy Akroma's Will or Unnatural Growth during a critical combat phase.

Mulligan Priorities:

• Keep hands with 2-3 lands (including color-fixing), at least one ramp piece, and a mid-game payoff (dragon or tutor).
• Prioritize Magda, Brazen Outlaw or Selvala, Eager Trailblazer in opening hands for explosive starts.
• Avoid hands with only high-CMC dragons and no ramp.

Key Tips:

• Use Emergence Zone to cast Akroma's Will or Heroic Intervention at instant speed.
• Magda, Brazen Outlaw can tutor combo pieces like Aggravated Assault or Dracogenesis.
• Soul-Guide Lantern disrupts graveyard strategies while cycling itself.

Weaknesses:

Critical

• Heavy reliance on creature-based ramp makes it vulnerable to board wipes (Fumigate is the only wipe here) and Cursed Totem effects.
• The infinite combat combo requires two specific permanents with no innate protection.

Moderate

• Limited stack interaction (only Pyroblast, Swords to Plowshares, and protection spells).
• Treasure-dependent lines falter against Collector Ouphe or Stony Silence.

Minor

• High density of tapped lands (Hushwood Verge, Maelstrom of the Spirit Dragon) can slow early turns.
• Dracogenesis is a dead card without dragons in hand.

Most Important Cards:

• Magda, Brazen Outlaw (Treasure generation, combo tutor)
• Aggravated Assault (Infinite combat enabler)
• Savage Ventmaw (Combo piece, mana battery)
• Selvala, Eager Trailblazer (Mana scaling, token generation)
• Akroma's Will (Game-ending combat trick)
• Dracogenesis (Free dragon casting)
• Unnatural Growth (Combat damage multiplier)
• Genesis Wave (Mass permanent deployment)
• Chord of Calling (Tutor for key creatures)
• Traverse the Outlands (Land-based ramp scaling)

Attribute Ratings:

Speed: 7/10

• Can threaten infinite combats or lethal dragon swarms by turn 6-7 with optimal ramp. Mana Geyser enables explosive late-game turns.

Resilience: 5/10

• Limited protection beyond Heroic Intervention/Flawless Maneuver. Recursion is minimal outside Eternal Witness-like effects.

Consistency: 7/10

• Strong tutor density (7+ creature/enchantment tutors) and card draw (Sylvan Library, Tribute to the World Tree) ensure key pieces are accessible.

Interaction: 4/10

• Reactive answers are sparse but targeted (exile removal, Fumigate). Relies on combat tricks for protection.

Rating Justification:

This deck operates at a 6.0-6.5 power level, capable of threatening wins via combat or combo by turns 6-7 with strong consistency. While its speed approaches optimized tiers, vulnerability to creature removal and limited interaction keep it below high-power thresholds.

Power level: 6.0 - 6.5
