Dragon horde

An idea sprung to mind. A deck like the zombie horde, but with DTK flavour: Sarkhan has rallied the dragons for world domination and is amassing armies. After looking at the Sarkhans I think {Sarkhan, dragonspeaker} has the best abilities: turn into a dragon on his own turn while bolstering himself, mainwhile dragons come to his aid, slowly getting more and more powerful and dangerous. The players would win by killing Sarkhan. (To those of you who done the game @ prerelease M15, that's one of the sources). I would really like some nice pointers for both dragons and strategies to use, as Sarkhan would have to be protected. Maybe attack first, then reinforce? But how to balance what enters?

New idea pops now too: this could be done with Sliver queen too :)) new thread for that...

Maybe you could have a set of predetermined dragons you want to use and on sarkhans turn just roll a d6, if it lands on 5 put in a 5 converted mana cost dragon.
Or you could just use dragon tokens with a few of the big guys from ktk and so on, then just play it like you would a regular horde deck.

I built a DTK flavored version and posted it on Casual. The more generic and hurtful version has almost 100 dragons in there. Just filtered dragons and went berserk. Not a clue if it is playable :p
