[Deck] Dragonstorm T1.5?

[Lego]

Lego has a good D. Storm deck list that he used in Extended.

I don't know that I'd call it good. It was fun, and worked in the meta for a while. Let me see if I can remember the list.

4 Kokusho The Evening Star
1 Rorix Bladewing
4 Krark Clan Ironworks
4 Seething Song
3 Dragonstorm
4 Burning Wish
4 Chrome Mox
4 Vamp Tutor
4 Pentad Prism
4 Brainstorm
2 Serum Visions
1 Echoing Turth
1 Talisman of Dominace

4 City of Brass
4 Seat of Synod
4 Vault of Whispers
4 Darksteel Citadel
4 Great Furnace

I'm sure it was something like that. I'd try to fit Rite of Flame, and it would hurt to lose Vampiric Tutor. Anyway, not a very tuned list or anything, but that was my take.

OMG, Evn. I have a Dragonstorm deck designed that uses Krark-Clan Ironworks too! I thought that was my secret tech, little did I know you were playing it!

A well-timed StP can still ruin the Kokusho kill. The Bogardan Hellkite + haste dragon plan might be better.

emidlin's version looks best so far: it has all the must-include cards.

How is this deck going to be better than IGGy Pop? Just avoidance of graveyard hate?

Countering the very first IGG that comes on the table, maybe...
Or having a stifle main to be tutored
Dunno... options?

Besides, i aggre with the StP issue, but, if the dragons come into play together, will one remain on table?
This could be a good reason for having Bogardan as side if running kokusho...

I don't see how Kokusho is better than Hellkites. Obviously it's nice that the life loss can't be prevented, etc, but I'd be worried about someone hitting once with a Jitte and screwing with your whole plan, or gaining life with some other card. The thing I like about Hellkite is that they deal a lot of damage AND stay in play as 5/5 flyers which isn't too shabby. Not to mention that in a bad spot you can maybe hardcast one and nuke somebody's team by dividing the damage amongst creatures.

I'm saying play it over hunted dragon you still play 2 hellkite and just get what you need. so if they gain some life you can just ds for 4 and get 2 kokusho 2 hellkite.

4 Bogardan Hellkite
1 Rorix Bladewing

That's a good way to start a decklist. If your decklist doesn't have them, change it.

0 Hunted Dragon

Hunted Dragon is in the T2 deck because T2 does not have other Dragons. Rorix and Brimstone are better options.

It wasn't necessarily addressed at you, just at the many people in this thread that have been playing Kokushos over Hellkites for whatever reason. I understand being afraid of COP Red, but Hellkite is so much better I think you have to take that risk.

dude i put hunted dragon in my decklist because it's all i have. Of course rorix is like 100 times better but i just don't have one. As far as the kokusho debate goes, maybe you could like run two in the sb to get around worship. it sounds janky but it would work.
