Legendary Creature — Dragon Peasant
Trample Whenever Thrakkus attacks, double the power of each Dragon you control until end of turn.
“Dragon swarm lord that doubles power on attack for explosive damage.”
Thrakkus the Butcher is a dragon lord that turns your aerial army into a lethal swarm by doubling their power each time he attacks. Your core gameplan is to assemble a team of dragons—many of which have their own evasion and abilities—then swing in with Thrakkus leading the charge to turn a moderate board into a one-hit kill. Since the power doubling is cumulative over multiple combat phases, even a small dragon team balloons into massive threats fast.
The deck wants to ramp quickly into dragons while filling your hand with options. Dragons like Atla Palani and Glorybringer apply immediate pressure, while utility dragons like Klauth, Unrivaled Ancient generate mana or card advantage. Your secondary plan involves Thrakkus's trample plus repeated combats to close out games before opponents stabilize. With cards that grant extra combat steps or clone effects, you can turn one attack phase into a chain of doublings that ends the game.

Skip expensive dragons like Sheoldred's Edict; use budget fliers like Glorybringer, Hellkite Charger, and Ember Dragon as your core team, then add ramp with Cultivate and Rampant Growth instead of pricey alternatives.
