Darigaaz, the Igniter
A flying 6/6 in Jund colors is already a serviceable finisher; the interrogation clause is what makes this Dragon worth remembering. Connect, then optionally pay , name a color, and force the player to reveal their hand: Darigaaz burns them for every card of that color sitting in their grip. Against a hand stacked in one color, that single hit can dwarf the six combat damage already dealt; against an empty or off-color hand, the payment is sunk and the bonus comes back zero. That is the gamble the design builds in, and it rewards reading the opponent: you have to predict which color a tight, color-dense hand is hoarding before you commit the mana. The flavor is pure overlord, a three-color brute that converts information into damage. As a Dragon legend whose name later printings have carried forward, this is the brute-force original, where the bonus scales with what you can correctly name rather than with counters or treasure. The sequencing wrinkle worth knowing: the trigger only fires after combat damage resolves, so it is contingent entirely on Darigaaz surviving to connect. Kill the dragon at instant speed before damage and the whole engine evaporates, which makes the body and the engine the same problem to answer.
