(GigaDrillBreaker) Posted May 25, 2017 Report Share Posted May 25, 2017 These are so funking bad EDIT: okay, just saw taigam and Ramos. Taigam is insane, and Ramos is pretty cool too. Honestly not convinced Ramos is amazing, but still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poc Posted May 25, 2017 Report Share Posted May 25, 2017 Yes! reprint all the dollar rares! The new commanders are pretty cool ability wise and finally having a true Ur-Dragon and a Ramos card is pretty awesome. Wasitora and O-Kagatchi having to deal combat damage is kind of a huge drawback to their abilities though (O-Kagatchi just seems bad IMO) Ur-Dragon and Ramos are maximum jank though. Seeing more abilities that work out of the command zone is worrysome though. Oloro was cancerous enough and now they're making a whole ability word for stuff like that. Taigam seems sweet though. Just making your instants and sorceries uncounterable is pretty darn good then he goes and gives them rebound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flame Dragon Posted May 25, 2017 Report Share Posted May 25, 2017 I was certain they'd have a Dragon command. Was hoping it would be Jund (and they seemed to know that since they made a Jund dragon legend) and that Slivers would be the 5 color deck, but I guess this makes sense. Hoping they have one more Jund dragon, hopefully actually from Jund. Wasitora seems like a bad Rith in that she needs to attack to do much of anything and even then the pay off of them sacing a creature or you making a 3/3 doesn't seem all that strong. She seems like a solid addition in the 99 of a Jund dragon deck, but not as the head. Also, those dragon tokens are too adorable. Also also, how many 3 color tokens do we even have in magic? O-Kagachi is a weird command. It disincentives attacking you pretty well, but thats about all it really accomplishes. Not really what you'd want as the head of a 5 color dragon deck. The Ur-Dragon is perfect though. The ability working in the command zone is risky, but I feel like making things cost 1 less isn't so strong as to be back breaking. Helped by it being limited to dragons which already cost a ton. I also like how you have a real incentive to cast it too since the card draw you get is REALLY good. I would 100% build around him if I didn't already have my 5 color deck be slivers. Taigam is a great design and is perfect for the Ojutai style of play. Attacking might be an issue, but what he does is powerful. Can totally see him as a commander without any Dragons along for the ride. Ramos seems sweet. A little weird that a colorless card doesn't work with other colorless cards, but casting 5 non-colorless spells isn't hard and thats the slowest it can hit Progenitus mana. Overall these are pretty cool and its awesome getting to see WotC make all these old characters into cards. Also, a note on the Ur-Dragon "The Ur-Dragon isn't a creature, but a concept – the paragon of “dragon-ness.” This card represents a manifestation of one aspect of the dragon ideal."

Poc Posted May 25, 2017 Report Share Posted May 25, 2017 keep in mind you don't need to go 5 color for Ur dragon. just sticking in RG and doing a typical dragon stompy deck is more than good enough. Just a concideration for players on a budget. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a concideration for players on a budget. It would personally bug me to not use colors my commander has. Not to mention you do have some great dragons made available when you add in White and Blue. Also, I'm doing the 32 deck challenge and I don't want to repeat things.

Poc Posted May 26, 2017 Report Share Posted May 26, 2017 Yea Ur Dragon's ability is pretty gud. Not as degenerate as Scion but thats probably a good thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delibirb Posted May 26, 2017 Report Share Posted May 26, 2017 I'm probably gonna build Tribal the Legacy with Ramos in the lead. Have all of his bones, Karn, the Legacy Weapon of course, the Weatherlight... Mightstone may need to be proxied... Naturally we'll play Door to Nothingness because otherwise there'd be no wincon. Oh, and Blind Seer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Icefall regent becomes a 4 drop funking Silumgar is a 5 drop DRAGONLORD GOD DAMN ATARKA IS A 6 DROP HOLD THE funking PHONE I think my 3 drop of choice for Ur would be Thunderbreak Regent. Yea, people are all like "Dragons are normally super expensive" and no, imagine if every dragon just went down the curve by 1. Even if most the good dragons start at 5, they are all 4 drops now and you get some insane results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simping For Hina Posted May 26, 2017 Report Share Posted May 26, 2017 If Taigam is real, I might actually invest in an EDH deck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaosix Posted May 29, 2017 Report Share Posted May 29, 2017 Regarding them being unconfirmed, i think that the art looks too good to be fake, and i looked up the artist on the cat-dragons, (Cynthina Sheppard) and by looking at her other art this is definitely something similar to her other art, so that's up there. I checked all the other artists i could read on the cards as well, and I'm pretty sure it checks up.-------------------Wasitora is a Cat Dragon that makes Baby Cat Dragons, which is enough alone to make me want this. O-Kagachi makes you a major threat, and not giving it some sort of protection makes it kinda bad. Ur-Dragon is really good, because he always does something, and making everything 1 less is broken, but I don't know if we are going to be able to abuse it yet. Its also a keyword, which means we are going to see more abilities like it. The reprints are pretty nice. I like that they are using the RTR Niv-Mizzet. Taigam as a commander would make an Azorius control deck really annoying, and i don't like Azorius so i don't like it. Ramos is pretty nice, and an artifact, so a Door to Nothingness affinity deck would be pretty cool. Going back to reprints, seeing as this is 5 colors, i expect some really good land reprints.

Flame Dragon Posted May 29, 2017 Report Share Posted May 29, 2017 Going back to reprints, seeing as this is 5 colors, i expect some really good land reprints. I hadn't actually thought about what they'd do for the mana base. With so many of the rare slots being eaten up by Dragons I'm curious what lands it will end up having. My guess is the 10 trip lands and the 5 vivids. Not sure what past that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poc Posted May 29, 2017 Report Share Posted May 29, 2017 don't hold your breath on any valuable land slots. The 4 color decks were not given much love on their mana and I can't expect the 5 color decks to be the same. There are some cheap options to a 5 color mana base but they're all significantly worse than fetches+duals and other 5 color lands. Don't expect to put together a competitive mana base for these decks on a budget. The best im expecting is Reflecting pool but even that might be too valuable now to include in a precon.

NeoRWBY65 Posted June 4, 2017 Report Share Posted June 4, 2017 I have a friend with a scion of the ur-dragon commander deck, and I have a 5-color edh deck as well, and we were both excited by the ur-dragon himself appearing as a new general I just realized that he drops Utvara Hellkite down to 7 mana no matter what. I've been dropping it lower in my temur deck with animar, but being able to guarantee it gets lowered is awesome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
