Dragon's Smile

Dragon's Smile is a unique hybrid of card advantage engine and evasive threat that rewards you for turning it sideways. Your game plan revolves around crewing this flying vehicle early and attacking to exile cards from opponents' libraries, then casting those cards for free during the same turn. This creates a snowball effect where each combat swing generates more resources and disruption simultaneously. You're not trying to be a pure aggro deck—instead, you're a midrange tempo strategy that converts combat damage directly into card advantage and mana efficiency.

To maximize Dragon's Smile, you'll want to lower its crew cost and enable casting from exile. Include cards that generate extra turns or repeated combat phases, since each hit multiplies your value. Red's impulse-draw effects (like Experimental Frenzy or Outpost Siege) synergize beautifully with the free spell casting, and creatures that naturally crew well become your crew enablers. The deck scales well into the mid-game: early crew payoffs transition into a late-game engine where you're essentially drawing and playing multiple cards per turn cycle.
