Deck Description

This was initially my 5 color dragon deck (see profile), but after a good deal of goading from a friend, it became my first EDH deck. At this point, it has no real theme save the abundance of color variety and the dragons, and I'm looking for 3 things with it. I desperately need:

-Card Suggestions
-Card removal suggestions
-Theme suggestions

I know it's a pain to get people to look over EDH decks on here, but I hope someone with some experience and ideas can help me out.

How to Play

The basic idea was to have a 5 color deck with reasonable toolkit accessibility. However, I only used the cards available to me at the time, so it's a bit of a rabble. I'm up to any suggestions, the more detailed the better.

Deck discussion for My First EDH - 5 color

There are a couple directions you can take this deck, depending on what you want to replace/what you like:

5 Color Ramp: Peregrination, Explore, Exploration, Kiora, Karametra, Tooth and Nail, etc. Heavy green base. Focusing on getting your fatties + Progenitus out as fast as possible to beat face. Find every land ramp card, plus a couple protection cards (Privileged Position, etc.), and throw in your favorite fatties. In terms of removal, a couple of Red or Black board wipes (Black Sun's Zenith, Pyrohemia, etc.) would be good here, as well as more expensive board wipes (Decree of Pain, Plague Wind, Merciless Eviction).

5 Color Dragons: Have Scion of the Ur-Dragon as your commander. Throw in every dragon you can find, add some more fixing, and go to town. Similar to the above strategy. Try Dragonstorm.

5 Color Colors: Sunburst cards (Etched Oracle), Domain Cards (Draco, Manaforce Mace, Allied Strategies), Basic Land Type fetching and cards(Krosan Verge, Shocklands, Burnished Hart), and cards that care about how many colors a card has (Civic Saber, Knight of New Alara). Throw in as many unwieldly, but useful multicolored creatures you can find (Sen Triplets, Tariel, Karador). Commander would either be kept at Progenitus or changed to Cromat, as they match the theme pretty well. If you want, Child of New Alara is a pretty good idea too.

Added the triplets, dragonstorm, decree of pain and privileged position. Got rid of a couple of the fatties, since I have too many already. Added Cromat as an alternative commander too. Thanks for the suggestions, man! Plenty to think about. I don't need too much more mana ramp than I already have, since I usually play world games when I do play.
