Deck discussion for Atarka EDH

I ran Atarka for about two weeks until all the other dragon tribal decks made me take it apart. Some observations:

You aren't running much recursion. Myself, I'd rather run Skyshrould Claim and spend four mana all at once to get my lands into play rather than spend 3 to cast it and three to get the lands with Burnished Hart. Granted you can use it as a chump blocker, but with big-ass scary dragons I just don't know how often you'll need to do that. I'd just ramp faster myself.

For one more mana than Basalt Monolith, Thran Dynamo doesn't have an untap cost. Well worth it imo especially since I'm not seeing some infinite combo with it.

Bower Passage makes your guys mostly unblockable. Just having flying may be enough, but in my meta I see Talrand, a few angel tribals, demon tribal, sphinx tribal, and a handful of other dragon decks. There's just so many fliers that Bower Passage did great work.

Greater Good makes board wipes, etc a lot less painful when you're gaining 3-4 card advantage per dragon dying.

Gratuitous Violence stacks nicely with double strike.

Steely Resolve set to dragons can keep your guys nice and safe.
