The Dragon's Hoard - Smaug the Magnificent
deck Smaug the Magnificent

Hobbit Precon - [[Smaug the Magnificent]]
Mono-Red Dragons and Treasures.
This deck aims to generate a large amount of Treasure tokens, strengthening Smaug's attack trigger to remove key threats and burn down opponents, while also leaning into the Dragon creature type as a subtheme.
It features Dragon cards that either generate or benefit from Treasures, such as [[Gadrak, the Crown-Scourge]] and [[Goldspan Dragon]]; cards that generate Treasure tokens and synergize with Treasure like [[Xorn]] and [[Alchemist's Talent]]; and cards that synergize with Dragons like [[Desolation of Smaug]] and [[Dragon Tempest]]. [[Hellkite Tyrant]] serves as a thematic alternative win condition.
Cards from sets not in the Middle Earth setting would be given updated art and potentially given Flavor Names, as is often done for UB precons, such as [[Tome of Legends]] to "Bilbo's Book".
Total card value is kept at roughly the $150 range including the Commander, and the deck aims to be at the Bracket 2 Precon level, with no Gamechangers or infinite combos.
