🔴 Mono-Red Dragons | Explorer/Pioneer - MTG Arena | BLB - Bo1

Been on 50% win-rate after 20 games with this mono-red Dragons version. It's really fun and I enjoy playing [Bonehoard Dracosaur] as when it survives at least one turn, it usually changes the game for you. It is not a legendary creature, and therefore can be targeted with [Reflection of Kiki-Jiki] for a powerful combination.

[Chandra, Torch of Defiance] is also incredibly powerful and combined with [Glorybringer] it can help you through Rakdos and Aggro decks. I am thinking of streamlining the deck more in future iterations and eliminate a couple of one-off cards to try and make it more consistent, but for the time being this version was pretty good in tackling different needs against the meta.

Exert wherever you can with [Glorybringer] to save your damage spells. Do not be afraid of using your damage spells to flip your [Invasion of Tarkir] and try to save [Bonehoard Dracosaur] for when your [Fable of the Mirror-Breaker] flips and is activatable.

Ideally we want to ramp by using [Cleansing Wildfire] on our [Cascading Cataracts] indestructible land. But vs. greedy decks such as Amalia where they do not have a lot of basic lands, this can be also used as land destruction. Also always useful against man-lands.
