Overview:

This Naya (RGW) deck leverages Palladia-Mors as a color enabler rather than a central threat, focusing on explosive treasure generation, dragon tribal synergies, and infinite combat loops. The primary strategy revolves around ramping into massive dragons and using treasure synergies to fuel game-ending combos like Savage Ventmaw + Aggravated Assault. Palladia-Mors' upkeep cost makes her a situational finisher, while hidden commanders like Magda, Brazen Outlaw and Selvala, Eager Trailblazer drive the deck's core value engines.

Primer:

Core Strategy Execution:

1. Treasure Ramp (Turns 1-4): Deploy Magda, Brazen Outlaw, Storm-Kiln Artist, or Bloom Tender to generate treasure. Use land-based ramp (Cultivate, Nature's Lore) to hit critical mass.
2. Combo Setup (Turns 3-6): Tutor for Savage Ventmaw (via Eladamri's Call, Chord of Calling) or cheat dragons with Dracogenesis. Deploy Aggravated Assault or Nature's Will for combat loops.
3. Win Conditions:
   • Infinite Combats: Savage Ventmaw generates RG6 mana when attacking, feeding Aggravated Assault's activation cost for unlimited attack phases.
   • Treasure Payoffs: Brass's Bounty into Genesis Wave or Twinflame Tyrant for exponential damage.
   • Dragon Swarm: Lathliss, Dragon Queen and Scourge of the Throne create overwhelming board states.

Mulligan Priorities:

• Keep hands with 2-3 lands including green sources.
• Prioritize treasure generators (Magda, Storm-Kiln Artist) or key ramp (Bloom Tender, Selvala, Eager Trailblazer).
• Look for combo enablers (Aggravated Assault, Savage Ventmaw) or tutors.

Key Tips:

• Use Goblin Engineer to recur Lightning Greaves or fetch Dragonstorm Globe.
• Bolt Bend protects key dragons by redirecting removal.
• Emergence Zone enables surprise casts of Akroma's Will or Heroic Intervention during combat.

Weaknesses:

Critical

• Relies heavily on creature-based ramp; Cursed Totem or Linvala, Keeper of Silence cripples mana generation.
• Lacks countermagic beyond Pyroblast, making combo setups vulnerable to instant-speed interaction.

Moderate

• Board wipes reset progress; limited recursion beyond Eternal Witness-style effects.
• Struggles against stax pieces like Blood Moon due to greedy 3-color mana base.

Minor

• Palladia-Mors' upkeep cost becomes burdensome in prolonged games.
• Limited card advantage outside combat phases.

Most Important Cards:

• Savage Ventmaw (Infinite combat enabler)
• Aggravated Assault (Primary combo piece)
• Magda, Brazen Outlaw (Treasure engine & tutor)
• Selvala, Eager Trailblazer (Mana scaling with dragon power)
• Dracogenesis (Free dragon casting)
• Tribute to the World Tree (Card advantage engine)
• Akroma's Will (Game-winning combat trick)
• Traverse the Outlands (Mass land ramp with big creatures)
• Genesis Wave (Late-game board flood)
• Unnatural Growth (Combat damage multiplier)

Attribute Ratings:

Speed: 7/10
Capable of T5-6 infinite combats or dragon swarms, but requires specific card combinations.

Resilience: 5/10
Limited protection beyond Heroic Intervention/Flawless Maneuver; combo pieces are fragile to removal.

Consistency: 7/10
Strong tutor density (8 tutors) and treasure generation compensate for high variance strategies.

Interaction: 4/10
Focused on protecting its own board with limited removal (Swords to Plowshares, Fumigate).

Rating Justification:

This deck operates at a high-power casual level with T6-7 combo potential but lacks the redundancy and free interaction of optimized lists. Its reliance on combat-focused wins and vulnerability to common stax effects place it between Focused and Optimized tiers.

Power level: 6.0 - 6.5
