Commander deckUW
Ojutai, Soul of Winter
Engage in a mid-range control strategy that utilizes Dragons to freeze opponent's permanents. Synergizes with Khan block permanents to provide board control and flying pressure.
Asked for“Gimme a sick commander under one of the two color dragon lords from the khans block. Keep it fairly dragon themed and use mostly khans block cards. Not silumgar”
Deck anatomy
What this list actually runs on: how cheaply it casts things, and whether it has enough ramp, card draw and interaction to keep up at the table. Each block is one card — hover for its name.

The working parts
Counted from Scryfall’s community card tags, not from the builder’s own labels. A card that does two jobs counts twice, so these add up to more than the deck. The hatched band is a common rule of thumb, not a law — combo decks run leaner, battlecruiser decks heavier.
