Hey Forums. I recently asked for some advice on a dragon deck I was building, and the advice I got was brilliant! I have been working on a deck themed (sort of) around Zacama, Primal Calamity, however, as you might imagine for a GRW6, 9/9 dinosaur of mass destruction, it can be difficult. I am building under the same environment for playing: Two or more friends, usually using Selesnya creatures or Azorius spirits/control decks. I really want to do something along the lines of Enrage or Dinosaur tribal for the deck, but I lack the experience.
I was hoping to get some advice on constructing this deck to appease my Dinosaurian Master.
Thanks

I'd pass on that if possible. If anything you should play more fight cards like Prey Upon or Reckless Rage that kill opposing critters while damaging your own. Auras are especially heinous against Control decks and Pacifism effects (which you already noted are a problem) so there's no need to play into their gameplan. More often than not you'll be 2-for-1ing yourself which isn't where you want to be.
Yeah, I looked at drover, seems like a good option as it gets bigger when I have dinos, which helps, and can tap for mana, so if I am one or two away from Zacama and I have two drover's, I am there, although, I dont know if tapping creatures to play Zacama is as good, since Zacama only untaps lands, not creatures
Something I'll consider
Thanks Prid3!

How are yo so good at this? This deck looks so cool! I did not even know pyrohemia was a card until now!
So looking at this, I reckon I'll build something around, of course, pyrohemia, but also looking at Tilonalli's Crown. I only own 1 copy of Zacama, Primal Calamity, but I mean, Do I really need more than one? I am sure that a few copies of Forerunner of the empire could solve this issue
Thank you!

It's a fantastic mutiplayer card in general and truly shines in Enrage decks :).

That'll work perfectly fine. Just be aware that Marauding Raptor and Forerunner of the Empire can be a bit of a nonbo since you end up killing all of your dudes. If needed you can always run Drover of the Mighty (or any other 2 CMC mana rock) over Marauding Raptor.
