Commander Deck Reviews / Re: Hawk Red/Black Tribal Dragon Deck Updated
« en: Agosto 10, 2020, 02:05:13 am »
Hello again,
I stand by the black spells already shared already for card draw (not a fan of https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?utf8=1&lng=en&card=Phyrexian+Arena since it takes time to draw you the cards, and a lot can happen in one turn of commander). Sort them out and see which ones are in your budget and you like the most. I would like to add to the list, thought, a favourite of mine: https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?utf8=1&lng=en&card=Arguel%27s%20Blood%20Fast%20%2F%2F%20Temple%20of%20Aclazotz&set=XLN. It's reusable card draw when you need it, its cheap (in real world money as well) and the other side of the card might also become relevant in your deck since you already play big creatures (dragons).
Also, I think card advantage is not always about card draw but about having multiple things to do with your mana. Have you considered running https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?utf8=1&lng=en&card=Spit%20Flame&set=M19?. It is true that it is not the best removal spell out there, but in your deck you will get to cast it multiple times without much effort (card advantage) and in a multiplayer game you will often find good targets in the table, AND it stays on theme (which is a big factor for me). And staying on theme, you could also consider swapping one of your dragons for https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?utf8=1&lng=en&card=Knollspine%20Dragon&set=SHM
And lastly (and this might be a bit off-topic), I am also trying to put together a RB EDH dragon tribal deck myself, and to cope with the card advantage thing I chose https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?utf8=1&lng=en&card=Chainer%2C%20Nightmare%20Adept&set=C19 as my commander. Things going on for him:
- He can also give haste to your dragons.
- He has very good synergie with https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?utf8=1&lng=en&card=Bladewing%20the%20Risen&set=IMA in your 99.
- When you need a dragon, discard something else and play a dragon from your graveyard. In situations when you can't afford a dragon, discard a dragon for later and play something actually useful instead.
- Since you are in RB you have plenty of tools to turn the discard thing into card advantage such as: https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?utf8=1&lng=en&card=Bladewing%27s%20Thrall&set=IMA (this one you might like for your deck), https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?utf8=1&lng=en&card=Big%20Game%20Hunter&set=C19, https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?utf8=1&lng=en&card=Squee%2C%20Goblin%20Nabob&set=C19 or the already mentioned https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?utf8=1&lng=en&card=Spit%20Flame&set=M19.
- You can recurr creatures with card draw effects from your graveyard such as https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?utf8=1&lng=en&card=Solemn%20Simulacrum&set=M21 or https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?utf8=1&lng=en&card=Magus%20of%20the%20Wheel&set=C20. And don't underestimate the power of being able to instant-speed discard a card and cast https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?utf8=1&lng=en&card=Dualcaster%20Mage&set=JMP from your graveyard to copy that sweet "draw 4 cards" from the blue player at the table.
Although my gameplan is different than yours since i am trying to win by comboing off with https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?utf8=1&lng=en&card=Scourge%20of%20Valkas&set=IMA/https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?utf8=1&lng=en&card=Terror%20of%20the%20Peaks&set=M21/https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?utf8=1&lng=en&card=Dragon%20Tempest&set=IMA + lots of dragons (https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?utf8=1&lng=en&card=Lathliss%2C%20Dragon%20Queen&set=JMP/https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?utf8=1&lng=en&card=Utvara%20Hellkite&set=GK2) by casting a big fat juicy https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?utf8=1&lng=en&card=Dragonstorm&set=MMA or pulling them out of my graveyard with things like https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?utf8=1&lng=en&card=Living%20Death&set=CM2 or https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?utf8=1&lng=en&card=Balthor%20the%20Defiled&set=JUD (which has the benefit that it can be pulled from the graveyard with https://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?utf8=1&lng=en&card=Chainer%2C%20Nightmare%20Adept&set=C19)
Having said this, this is just how I adress the issue. You should use the commander that YOU like the most and the one that fulfills the goal that you have for the deck, and that is the whole point of the format.
Sorry for the long post, I'm just exited about the topic since I have also been looking into it in the last days.
