Gadrak, the Crown-Scourge — Forgeflight Tyrant
Gadrak, the Crown-Scourge is a compact Dragon commander that rewards artifact boards and creatures on the brink. The card reads like a focused game plan: with flying and a conditional attack requirement that pushes you to build or maintain artifacts, Gadrak converts battlefield carnage into Treasure on your end step. It fits into artifact-focused decks or red midrange lists that want recurring value from each combat or board wipe.
Play Gadrak when you want a late resource engine rather than immediate pressure. The must-have four artifacts constraint shapes deck construction and makes each nontoken death meaningful since each one becomes a Treasure token you can sacrifice for mana. The effect scales with multiplayer skirmishes and token-resistant lines, so pairing Gadrak with artifact tutors and creature-sweeper planning yields steady advantage. Add it to a commander list that leans into artifact synergy and incremental resource play to turn every skirmish into fuel for your next turn.
