Information

A different direction to take advantage of the synergies around Scalesworn Patrol, Jada, and Awakened Student.

Open Way Supplier's Killer usually lands on something very useful, and it's possible to play and activate Scalesworn on turn three. Valles Rex gets enough discounts to be very playable.

It's usually not right to play Waystone Ignitor on turn 1 here, unless you're facing a Battlefront Dasher, in which case a 2/1 and a 1/1 is fine. We're not trying to race our opponent down, we're going to win with beef. There's no shame in playing a 4/3 3-drop, and if you wait, you may find one of the other choices more valuable.

There are still a couple of flex slots here, although I've been liking The Last Carnosaur and will probably keep it in. Feel free to share your ideas.

Despite a solid draw each and every game, this deck is 0-4 against 2 Rakano decks (one was endless steps version), Brynn, and a Mill deck. I'm not seeing it's value at this point. It has zero removal, and little to no protection against other decks' removal. What am I missing?

Hey, thanks for your comment, sorry I didn't see it in a timely fashion, but I appreciate you giving the deck a try. Sorry it didn't to better for you. I just posted a Xenan Rex deck that I took to Master's this month if you'd like to take a look at that. And it DOES have removal. =) Good luck out there!

I have a lot of fun with this deck !
Replaced Waystone Ignitor with Resolute Monk, works amazingly with the empower package.
Also removed Lotus Instructor and Evelina for more Cloudscraper and Timeless Bond cause I feel this is more consistent this way.
Thanks for the share !

Thanks for your comment, sorry I didn't reply in a timely fashion. I'm glad you had some fun with the deck. I have just posted a new Xenan Rex build that I took to Master's this month, if you'd like to take a look at that. Good luck out there!
