Creature — Dragon4 generic manaRed manaRed mana

Storm on a Dragon is a strange pairing, and the tension is the whole idea. Storm rewards a low curve of cheap spells cast in a single turn; a 4/4 flyer that costs six is the opposite of that, a bulky payoff sitting at the top end of exactly the deck Storm least wants to build. What resolves the contradiction is the anthem: every copy this makes is a Dragon, so a storm count of even two or three drops a clutch of 4/4 fliers that each pump the others. Where classic Storm cards (the Tendrils and Grapeshots of the world) convert a chain of rituals into a single lethal payload, this converts it into a board, one that keeps scaling because each token buffs its siblings. The design leans into the ceiling being a coin flip: cast it into an empty turn and you have a fair, overcosted Dragon lord; cast it after a few cheap spells and the token squadron arrives already oversized. It is Storm reimagined not as a combo finisher but as a go-wide flyers engine, using a keyword built for spell velocity to reward a tribe built for the ground game's inverse. The friction between "cast nothing first" and "cast everything first" is what the card is actually asking you to solve.
