Legendary Creature — Dragon
Flying Whenever Darigaaz deals combat damage to a player, you may pay {2}{R}. If you do, choose a color, then that player reveals their hand and Darigaaz deals damage to the player equal to the number of cards of that color revealed this way.
“Evasive dragon that punishes colored hands while you swing in for damage.”
Darigaaz is a flying threat that punishes opponents for holding colored cards in hand. Your game plan is straightforward: deal combat damage with Darigaaz, then activate her ability to force hand reveals and dish out extra damage based on whatever color dominates their grip. She slots naturally into midrange strategies that can protect a 6/6 flyer while building toward a damage-focused finish.
To maximize her damage output, you want redundant evasion or combat tricks to ensure she connects reliably. Cards that give her unblockability, double strike, or extra combat steps amplify the ability—especially if you can trigger it multiple times per turn. Since the ability costs {2}{R} each activation, you'll want solid mana acceleration to chain casts and activations together. The deck plays like a strategic beater deck with a hand-destruction edge: you're simultaneously pressuring life totals and reading what your opponents are holding, then choosing colors that hurt most.
