Mox strategy
Scion of the Ur-Dragon is a powerful five-color Dragon commander and combo enabler. Its main strength is flexibility: it can turn into the best Dragon for the moment, giving you instant access to removal, evasion, reanimation, protection, or lethal damage from the command zone.
Best use cases are Commander decks built around Dragons, graveyard synergy, and toolbox lines. It shines when you can stock the graveyard with high-impact Dragons and then copy them as needed, especially at instant speed to dodge removal or surprise-block.
Strong synergies include Dragon tribal payoffs, graveyard fill effects, and Dragons with strong enters-the-battlefield or attack triggers. It also pairs well with haste enablers, so it can activate immediately after casting, and with extra combat or combat-damage support to convert copied forms into kills.
Key mechanics it supports are tutor-like selection, graveyard setup, and transformational combat tricks. In practice, it rewards tight sequencing and a well-chosen Dragon package more than raw board presence.
