Great thread! There have been so many memorable pulls over the years, for one reason or another. One of the coolest was a foil Two-Headed Dragon from a single pack of Mercadian Masques I picked up while travelling.

Thank you.

I started playing Magic a month or so before Masques came out, so it's always had a kind of mystical aspect to me. Is that nostalgia speaking? Sure, somewhat. But in addition to really loving the 'feel' of the setting and the cards, I also had a familiarity with the cards that helps one better appreciate what was available. There are no shortage of superb cards running around in Masques - in addition to what you mentioned, and just off the top of my head, there's also Land Grant , Food Chain , Thwart , Soothsaying , Misdirection , Reverent Mantra , Unmask , Tower of the Magistrate , Haunted Crossroads , Pulverize as well as the last core printings of Dark Ritual and Brainstorm . Sure, the set had a few too many 4/4s for four mana with colosal drawbacks for my taste, too. But you still can't beat some of the inventive fun in Distorting Lens , Two-Headed Dragon and Foster .

Anyways, thanks for sticking up for the little guy as well. Masques is a fascinating set with a beautiful setting and interesting ideas, so it's nice to hear it spoken of in something other than biting vitriol for a change. Honestly, I'd just love to see any of the modern Type 2 decks try and stand a chance against a well-built Rising Waters deck from even Masques block constructed, you know?

Keep fighting the good fight!

Nun mal zum Rauswurf:

Bounty of the Luxa klingt glaube ich besser, als es klingt. Probiere es gerne aus, aber ich hatte immer das Gefühl, dass ich nie dann das Mana bekam, wenn ich es brauchte, und das ich immer ne Karte ziehen durfte, wenn ich eigentlich Mana brauchte. Vielleicht noch eine Kreatur statt dessen? Shifting Ceratops fällt mir spontan ein.

Frontier Siege finde ich fraglich. Ich habe kurz mal 6 Kreaturen gezählt, die fliegen. Damit ist die zweite Option eigentlich nur brauchbar für dich und nur für die erste Wahl könnte man besser auf eine Karte steigen, die dir mehr bietet.

Sarkhan's Unsealing sieht so auf dem Papier großartig aus. Man müsste es aber einfach ausprobieren. Ich finde es schwer, den Nutzen wirklich einzuschätzen. Ich habe 20 Karten gezählt, bei denen die Karte aktiviert wird. Ich finde das schon gut.

Zendikar Resurgent ist eine der Karten, die am Anfang in jedem meiner Decks steckt und dann aber im letzten Umbau rausfliegt - aber jedes Mal bis ich mit dem Rauswurf auch unzufrieden, denn ich denke die Karte kann sehr viel. Gerade in einem Deck mit dicken, teuren Kreaturen würde ich das auf jeden Fall austesten!

Two-Headed Dragon Ich finde, dass es hierfür einfach besseres gibt. Wenn du noch einen Füller brauchst, ist der Drache ok. Er wäre aber wohl der erste, der bei mir aus dem Deck fliegt. Ansonsten ist Drakuseth, Maw of Flames vielleicht eine Alternative.

Terastodon ähnlich wie Zendikar Resurgent finde ich den Elefanten eigentlich ganz cool, aber er ist halt sehr teuer und trifft dann auch keine Kreaturen, sodass er ggf. nicht einmal vernünftige Ziele auf dem Feld hat. Ich finde die Karte riskant, aber nicht schlecht. Dadurch, das Surrak ihm Trampel gibt wird er auch noch aufgewertet. Ein 9/9 Trampler ist nicht zu ignorieren.

Whisperer of the Wilds ist nicht mein Ding. Anfangs ist er nur ein teurer Llanowar Elf und auch später produziert er auch nur grünes Mana. Da würde ich bei all deinen Farben lieber die Konsistenz deines Decks erhöhen. Mögliche Kandidaten wären: Ceta Disciple (den kannte ich selber gar nicht, aber er filtert Mana und kann noch eine Trampler unterstützen), Generator Servant (Ein Versuch ist er wert. Hast ist sehr nützlich bei dicken Kreaturen), Incubation Druid (wohl mein Favorit), Quirion Elves (ein nostalgischer Klassiker meiner Jugend) oder Zhur-Taa Druid (ein Underdog, der mich immer wieder überrascht).

Savage Knuckleblade halte ich für etwas spekulativ, aber interessant. Ich finde ihn nicht gut, aber ich glaube der hat echt das Potential den Tisch zu überraschen, wenn du ihn gleich mir Hast und verstärkt angreifen lässt. Auch die zweite Fähigkeit kann eine gute Symbiose mit den "enter the battlefield" Verzauberungen geben.

Myojin of Life's Web Ich weiß ehrlich nicht, ob dies lohnt. Die Myojins sind cool, wenn man denen immer wieder Counter geben kann. Als ein einmaliger Effekt finde ich lohnt dies nicht, bzw. lohnt selten. Außerdem sind 3 grüne Mana in einem dreifarbigen Deck riskant.

Ich hoffe, dies hilft dir etwas

DemonDragonJ on Ravnica Allegiance: Spoilers and Speculation

I definitely like the new Gruul mechanic, riot; again, as with the Simic, it is the least interesting of the three mechanics that that guild has had, but it is an improvement upon unleash in the same way that adapt is an improvement upon monstrous.

However, why is frenzied arynx's ability so expensive to activate? Using both Shivan Dragon and Two-Headed Dragon as examples, the arynx's ability should have cost only 3 mana to activate.

Hey there! Love the deck. I personally run an Ur-Dragon deck and this dragon queen really pulls me to mono red for sure. I do have some suggestions for the deck based on some games that I have played. My local meta might be different(possibly more cut-throat) than yours and you might not need some of these cards. Budget also might be a thing too, as these do have a little bit of a price(not too much though). These are some suggestions:

Creatures:Glorybringer, Scourge of Kher Ridges, Thunder Dragon, Ryusei, the Falling Star, Taurean Mauler, Solemn Simulacrum. The four dragons listed will help keep the board semi-clear as you will likely have a slower start than other decks. Having these dragons out and about clears the way. Taurean Mauler is a dragon(because of changeling) and gets huge quickly! Lastly, solemn simulacrum is a must have because of the ramp/card draw.

Artifacts: Sol Ring, Unstable Obelisk,Dragons hoard(new in C19), Lightning Greaves,Swiftfoot Boots, Darksteel Plate. Here are some useful artifacts! Sol ring, because, sol ring(it really helps with ramp). Unstable obelisk is a way to help ramp but more importantly it helps red players destroy problematic enchantments later down the road. Dragon's Hoard is ramp with a way to draw cards down the road, which red needs. Your commander and big dragons need protection. Lightning greaves and Swiftfoot boots are used to give haste to your creatures that you equip it too, but also make them untargetable, which can be useful! Last artifact would be darksteel plate. It gives indestructible to a creature and it itself is indestructible. Very useful things.

Enchantments:Flameshadow Conjuring, Fervor. This part is simple. Basically fervor gives your dragons haste, so they can fly in asap(more haste effects, the better). flameshadow allows you to summon more dragons with haste. While it does not trigger your commander's ability, it does allow for cool interactions!

Instants:Scour from Existence, Spit Flame(new from C19) Scour is expensive i know with 7cc cost. However, it gets rid of anything super problematic for you at the table. Exile is super useful. Spit flame is new in C19 and is a great inclusion for this deck. I would use this over lighting bolt.

Land:Haunted Fengraf, Scavenger Grounds, Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx, Buried Ruin, Arch of Orazca, Sea Gate Wreckage. I could go into more detail about these lands, but I feel like they explain themselves. It allows you to use your graveyard a bit more, ramp more, and allow you to draw cards in the late game(which is where mono red struggles). You could also try for 38 lands over 40 if you were feeling lucky. I am sure you'll find a good balance.

Before I go, here are some suggested items to take out (and maybe throw in some new things(doesn't have to be what I listed :P )).

  1. Lightning Bolt. For a one time use, it does not do enough in EDH. 3 damage to a creature is small, and for a player it is even smaller (40 life x 3 people). I would highly suggest using Spit Flame instead(suggested under instants), as it is reoccurring from the graveyard.

  2. Draconic Roar Similar to #1, It does not do enough in this format in my opinion.

  3. Eldrazi Conscription While I love this card, I feel it costs too much mana for this deck and is a win-more card. Enchant creature effects don't seem to last too long in EDH.

  4. Verix Bladewing I love these dragons, but in its best case, it is 2x 4/4s with no addition text. Worse case it is just a 4/4. Overall, I think there are better dragons.

  5. Two-Headed Dragon This creature is expensive and does not have a big presence on the battlefield from what I have seen

  6. Akoum Hellkite This creature is expensive and does not have a big presence on the battlefield from what I have seen. 2 damage is very minimal in EDH. It does work sometimes but often times enough, it is minimal.

  7. Shivan Dragon This creature is expensive and doesn't have a big impact when it hits the field. I would suggest others over it in my opinion.

  8. Blood Moon While it is great to slow down other decks, I feel like you'll make more enemies than friends with this card. Its all personal preference, but I feel that it does not fit this deck's objective.

And that is it! If you read it all, thanks for taking the time out of your schedule to check out some cool ideas. No pressure for any of these! I hope your deck kicks butt and that you have fun no matter how you play it. I look forward to see how this deck evolves in the future. Good luck friend!

You have Nissa Revane and not Nissa's Chosen? You should have 4 of him if you have Nissa Revane. Here is another dump of cards that are cool too. Necromaster Dragon, Taigam, Ojutai Master, Catacomb Dragon, Gisela, Blade of Goldnight, Siege Dragon, Rith, the Awakener, Crosis, the Purger, Utvara Hellkite (He is one of my favorites!), Mana-Charged Dragon, Vampiric Dragon, Death by Dragons, Dragonmaster Outcast, Knight of New Alara, Conflux, Kilnmouth Dragon (Drop him first and then you have never ending burn spells), Two-Headed Dragon, Flameblast Dragon. I have time on the bus ride home by the way. lol
