Draco Explosion
Burn Combo
Featured list~$1328MTG 4ª Liga Cordoba - Final @ Cordoba (Spain)
Overview
"Draco-Explosion is a black-red disruption-combo deck that burns the opponent out with a single huge spell. It strips the hand with Duress, Cabal Therapy, and Hypnotic Specter, then uses Insidious Dreams to stack Draco on top of the library and fires Erratic Explosion to deal sixteen damage. Lightning Bolt, Terminate, and Grim Lavamancer cover the early game while Phyrexian Arena and Scroll Rack keep the pieces coming."
Game Plan
Disrupt the opponent's defenses, set up Draco on top with Insidious Dreams, then Erratic Explosion for a massive, often lethal, burst of damage.
