I like him but what's the flavor here?
Is he pushing the walls down on the enemy? For science?
He helped build civilization in the story today so walls = city?

He's a cool commander in his own right but I find it strange that none of the retrained Elder Dragon Legends are anything that I would want to include in my The Ur-Dragon edh build. That said, who would've ever thought Wall of Denial could be a control finisher?
WotC wasn't willing to use their full names in the first place for this set. Vaevictis Asmadi was another one that got his full name only for japanese translation issues (the first version was "Vaevictis, the Dire"). For obvious reasons, Nicol Bolas and Palladia-Mors couldn't be simply be know as "Nicol" and "Palladia", so they tried to make the shorter name whenever was possible.
But " All proper dragons have two names." Wizards is so disrespectful. If Nicol were here he'd throw a hissy fit, probably burn the building down or cause everyone to murder each other.
My only problem with this card is that his full name isn't on the card. Honestly, the full names of the elder dragons carry some gravitas and both Arcades Sabboth and Chromium Rhuell got shafted.
Otherwise, this card is a complete homerun.

Edit:
@SimicNuggets, for maximum dramatic effect I use the Latin/Italian pronunciation, which is:
Ar (as in arrival) - ca (as in karate, this is the stressed syllable) - des (as in desert)
More great suggestions. I'm going to have fun building this.
Card advantage is not the same thing as card draw. Something for 2B cannot be strictly worse than something for BBB or 3BB. If you're taking out Swords to Plowshares for Plummet, you're a fool. Stop doing these things!

And then... I want to switch my life total with it...
*Essentially
I've thought of doing Arcades EDH and those are great ideas for the deck. I didn't even know Crackdown was a card.
More great suggestions. I'm going to have fun building this.
His first card was Castle on an Elder Dragon body, he craves structure and civilization, he lives in a castle...This is pretty much perfect.
On phasing:
Bridge is probably bad because walls cantrip with Arcades (it's not a may ability).
