I told DedWards I would someday make a Dragonstorm deck roughly based on his excellent design. Well, seeing as his hit top decks, this seems as good a time as any.

Nice. This should do well :p

You know what would be a beast in a storm deck? Pyromancer's Ascension.
Hehehe, yeah...However it's not necessary in this deck =/
First off, Pyromancer Ascension is too slow for Dragonstorm, second off, there's not enough dragons to pull out of a dragonstorm deck with all of those spell copies. It would just be a bunch of shuffling I think.
All you need is one {R} to cast Dragonstorm. Why are you running Seething Song and not Dark Ritual? If I were to build a similar deck, I'd also probably run a pair of Dragon Mages. On the chance that you're hardcasting, and not storming into dragons, there's a pretty high chance you're spending your hand on mana ramps to do it. Epic card advantage right there.
Why was I expecting Sarkhan? :P
Sarkhan the Mad's final would be awesome :p
Hmmm, storm that I like... Interesting, I might have to make my own version(probably a la Dream Halls) Good deck, but I have to agree with SavajCabbaj; Dark Ritual>Seething Song.
Thanks man. I'll give the ritual a try...I suppose with the ease at which I am splashing in this, it won't be too hard. =]
Although Dark Ritual is better here than Seething Song, it doesn't stop you from using both :p
Hahaha, I suppose. The problem is I have no freakin' room for anything else. =[ (By the way, shameless deck advertising incoming! I made a new deck that I'm excited about. http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=141488)
seathing song? pyretic ritual?
I took them out because of how I can "mana-swap" with ease. =] (btw, HOLY CRAP is the upcoming list brutal right now. The lower end is I think...32 Likes!)
I love these types of decks. I had the same thought with mine about using dark ritual. but i just stuck with pyretic ritual cause it was just easier to cast the spells i needed to get dragonstorm online. My seck uses either mana excelerating or damage to bring out dragonstorm. You should check it out sometime. http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=135520
The only thing that i see wrong is how are you geting your Kokusho's into the graveyard for the "Nuke"?
Legend rule. Since Kokusho is a legendary creature, when all 4 of them hit the battlefield, they all send each-other to the graveyard as a state-based action. =]
how the hell did i miss that one. Gawd now I feel like a dumb ass. sorry dude.
I'd like for you to check out my Dragon Storm deck. I need to see if I can possibly make it run smoother
if you have soul ring (it's in your "it's reaping Time" deck), i would suggest swapping it in for lotus petal, because though the ramp isn't colored, it is permanent if you need to hardcast dragons. also, i think u may need some cards to generate some card advantage with. i'd suggest either dragon mage or Null Profusion, though idk what to take out. anyways, this looks like a great deck. it should hit front page soon.
Lotus Petal is a 0 cost spell for 1 mana, whereas Sol Ring is a 1 cost spell for 2 mana. Both can be cast the turn of the Dragon Storm for additional storming.. gotta say I agree here. Shouldn't be too hard to get that one {R} to cast Dragonstorm (or the preceding rituals)
This is a pretty sick deck and once again i would like to say how jelous i am of your deck building is about 90 percent if not greater is or has been on the top decks list congratulations.
if you can get 4 demonic tutors and another vampiric tutor this deck will run much smoother. manamorphose isnt the best choice in this deck, you dont have a guarantee that the card you draw will be any good. for another mana source i would look into mana vault. the spirit guide isnt any good cause you dont play it and in this deck you need 3 other mana accel cards plus the dstorm.
I'd have to disagree on the Manamorphose thing. Other than drawing a card, it's an extra spell cast for the storm as it produces just as much mana as it cost :p
ya but it takes up space in your hand. y pay 2 and get 2 when you can pay 3 and get 5 with seething song. you only need 3 spells plus the dragonstorm. so with 4 mana you play seething song, now you have 6. drop 1 for a dark ritual, now you have 8. then play rite of flame and there you go. if you had manamorphose you would be looking at this. tap out the lands then play dark ritual, now you have 6. rite of flame, you have 7. manamorphose you have 7 and draw 1 more card. ya its an extra card for the storm but it essentially holds you back a turn and is unreliable
manamorphose is the perfect dstorm card. It gives you and extra spell if you need it and lets you draw a card for free. It's like they made that card just for Dstorm. never have i seen it in any other deck.
Manamorphose is good in just about ever Storm and Combo deck because it thins the deck out. End of story.
I find them to be very relyable. They have a multi use in my deck Storming Dragons. 1- Draw card. 2- Extra spell for storm. 3- Help hard cast Kokusho if I don't get to storm (my deck's strait red).
Another combo few people use with Dragonstorm is hideaway. I love tucking a Dragonstorm under my Mosswort bridge, then storming my Empty the Warrens, then dropping Dragonstorm on top of that. More aggro than combo-based, but I still love it.
I use Spinerock knoll in mine. Just gives me another option to bring out Dragonstorm. Hide dragonstorm, ignite memories for seven or more damage then storm my Overlords for damge galore.

Ditch the simians for more mana producing spells like seething song and pyretic ritual.
ummmmmm is this casua? b/c tutor is banned and im prettsure petal is restricted
Yeah this is just casual. I'm admittedly not an expert on Dragonstorm decks, but just wanted to make on after seeing DedWards's one. =]
nice deck bro. maybe you can give me a hand with mine http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=147114
I need help with my dragonstorm and my other 3 decks if anyone feels like critiquing. http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=153610 I love the manamorph... i have 4 just sitting in my box, and now i see they are perfect for drawing (which i run some in blue) and adding to the dstorm effect. I have to steal that idea... best practices!
i'm actually jealous of your 8 bombs (the black legendary dragon works just as well as the hellkite)... wish I would have discovered that. My storm is blue red right now
Might i suggest a doubling Doubling Cube or two?
