Lately i have been fascinated by the lore behind both dragons and thought it would be fun to make some heavy themed commander decks based around them. I would like to eventually add them into my Commander rotation and i can use them as kitchen table decks for fun. Here is what i have so far.
If Ugin's between Temur and Abzan, I say Temur because Sarkhan Unbroken is most definitely on Ugin's side. Even if it gets a little weird when his previous incarnation is out for Bolas.
I have been torn between the two as the last 2 Sarkhan cards fit into Temur. But Sorin and Nahiri fit well into Abzan. All three have helped Ugin in some way.
I think i might go with Temur
Eventually if i wanted to I could make a third and fourth deck one for Sorin and Nahiri and the second for the Eldrazi.
You could probably roll with 5 colors, using Scion of the Ur-Dragon. That way, you get Nahiri, Sorin, and Sarkhan. Just a thought.
However if you decided that 5 colors isn't for you, then I would definitely go with Temur. Sarkhan Unbroken seems much more fitting to Ugin than Nahiri and Sorin.
One thing to keep in mind however, is that these two deck would be sharing red and blue, their only differentiation being black for Bolas and green for Ugin. I don't know if that is something that matters to you.
@Strudel_King
having the two decks share two colours doesn't really matter to me.
Having a five colour deck sounds interesting but i think i will stay with Temur and use Intet (cause hes a dragon and he somewhat fits with Sarkhan) as the commander as Surrak doesn't fit and Yasova was a willing pawn of Nicol Bolas after he fed her false visions of a dragon free Tarkir.

I would probably end up having any of the Eldrazi in their own deck or in Nicol Bolas' deck.
- Nicol Bolas with be the commander for his deck.
- Sarkhan the Mad and Tezzeret, Agent of Bolas will be in Nicol Bolas' deck.
- I would like to use as many of the cards that are on each dragon's wiki page.
- Ugin's deck will be Temur with Intet, the Dreamer as its commander
- Sarkhan Unbroken and Sarkhan, the Dragonspeaker will be in Ugin's deck.
here is what i have so far for both decks.
