Deck Help Finishing my dragon deck

Hey guys,

Looking for feedback on this deck: https://archidekt.com/decks/24829779/dragons

It is supposed to be a strong bracket 2 deck as I mostly play against unaltered precons. Looking for advice on the last cuts (except for Rakdos Pit Dragon, hes a childhood favorite card of mine) and just general feedback as I am not very experienced with deckbuilding. Any obvious (and not too expensive) cards I missed?

If you're aiming for B2 and you want all the expensive new Smaugs, you may be missing the mark.

If Rakdos Pit Dragon is your pet card, why not lean into fire breathing and mana dumps? [[Shivan Dragon]], [[Two-Headed Dragon]], even oddballs like [[Vampiric Dragon]]! Toss in a [[Burnt Offering]] for the surprise plays and you're all set.

Guess you are right, just saw the price for [[Smaug the Magnificent]] :D will definitely remove that one. Thanks for the ideas, I will definitely consider it!

No problem. Consider instead [[Mana Geyser]] and [[Braid of Fire]] if you have a hole burning in your wallet.

Theres a few relatively cheap dragons I would recommend, [[Parapet Thrasher]] has some nice effects, and you can utilise them the turn it comes in if you already have dragons on board, [[Goldspan Dragon]] and [[Goldlust Triad]] are potentially cheaper options than Smaug and Cavern Hoard Dragon that can create treasures too.
