Top 10 Dragons in Commander History
Magic’s dragons are the ultimate outlet for those of us who are Timmies at heart. They’re almost universally big, splashy powerful creatures that will win games quickly if you can cast them and keep them in play. Sure, they are always magnets for removal in Commander thanks to their ability to deal huge chunks of evasive damage on top of their powerful abilities. But that respect is well justified – decks that can ramp up enough to regularly cast five, six and seven drop dragons will win many an EDH game.- Jon Widnall

It’s great design that so far looks to do justice to the rich mythology it’s based on.- Jon Widnall

Top 10 Zendikar Rising Cards for Commander
