Scavenge the Skies
Scavenger Regent is a pragmatic pick for black dragon decks that want a resilient flying threat and a toolbox of disruption. The card reads as a 4 4 flier for {3}{B}, so it blocks and pressures ground boards while offering an effect that punishes wide creature boards. In practice you cast Scavenger Regent to stabilize tempo, threaten aerial damage, and force opponents to answer a persistent threat that also carries a Sorcery omen you can exile for value.
The sorcery Exude Toxin gives each non Dragon creature negative stats equal to X until end of turn, and the card shuffles back into your library after resolution, which makes it a repeatable answer when you can mill into it or recur it. Flying and the ward cost that forces a discard create tight play patterns; you can push damage, bait removal, and turn favorable trades into card advantage. Play it in archetypes that exploit recursion, graveyard interaction, or creature control to maximize both the body and the omen.
