    I like that a dragon deck can even exist. I'm assuming that this deck will stick around and get some tweaks because this version looks different than the version I played against before.

      Yeah.  It's a keeper.  Like I mentioned on my own listing, I think this version was worse than the one I played against you.  While some of the choices worked out well...I'm not sold on this build.  It needs more card advantage.

        I would say that Sidisi's Faithful seems underwhelming, and without any sacrifice outlets so does Ruthless Deathfang. Cunning Breezedancer would be a better dragon for this deck, his ability would be minor but it's more powerful overall. Maybe with card draw like Think Twice it could become a strong closer.

          The Faithful was an attempt to try out bounce AND another wall type creature, and it was good, just not good enough in that specific iteration.  There are enough decks that get put on their back foot by those plays, but it wasn't the right play that night.  As far as dragons go, it is possible that staying in Esper means that the Breezedancer and the Noxious Dragon are the best dragons.  However, I have thought about the blue megamorph dragon for the hexproof.  Plus I could splash into another color for other dragons.  Definitely a work in progress.  It played a little bit better as just Esper Control with a 4/4 finisher, so it's not out of the question to do something like that.
