Deck discussion for The Return of Smaug

This is a great deck. I would say that if you added a couple of voracious dragons and a few goblins, this would be even better since Voracious dragon has this ability which deals damage equal to twice the number of goblins that it devoured.

Suggestions of goblins: goblin assault, dragon fodder, boggart arsonists (if you battle a guy with a white deck because of its plainswalk ability), and any other goblin that you can find that has plainswalk or other walk abilities.

Needs more Entombs. Also, take Scion of the Ur-Dragon out.

Definitly a cool deck... I love that you used alot of different dragons. For one because like you said it makes the deck more versatile but also it makes it more interesting. Unlike alot of other decks that play the same way everytime it will be some what different everytime you play which would make it alot more fun and harder to read.

Like I said before its definitly a cool deck

So I went back and did acouple sample hands with this deck... It is pretty awesome... The first time I did it I got Kokusho out on the first turn (though I doubt I would ever draw 3 dark rituals on the first turn again)... and after that I still was able to get a pretty boss dragon out in the first three turns. That's pretty crazy

Thanks I've been working on it since I started playing magic and now with faithless looting it runs fast and better stay pretty consistent with third and fouth turn wins it also has an answer for everything mostly.

i like how the deck runs. its a pretty kool concept for a dragon reanimator. i can honestly tell u i havent seen another deck like this. i agree the sample hands show a pretty consistent deck here.

I really can only disagree with one card, Skithiryx, he doesn't seem to fit very well.

Yay Creativity (+1)! Also, I don't know much about legacy but what about control decks?

Well black and red doesn't really have a answer to control other then hand disruption that's why thoughtseize is in there and maybe put some more hand disruption in the side by i haven't really figured out what to put in there kind of at a standstill.

Well, since you said that you consistently get 1st or second in tournaments, you must be doing something right to not need to worry about control.
